LIONS BEAT JETS 31-24 AT FORD FIELD ON GIBBS TOUCHDOWNS

The Detroit Lions beat the New York Jets 31-24 at Ford Field in a Week 3 NFL fixture, according to Yahoo Sports, which reported that a Chuck Clark sack in the final minutes secured the win. Running back Jahmyr Gibbs scored two rushing touchdowns during the game. NBC Sports reported that Detroit had built a 24-10 lead early in the fourth quarter behind four consecutive scoring possessions. The Jets had earlier threatened a comeback but could not close the gap.

Gibbs's first touchdown came on a 17-yard run in the third quarter, on which he evaded several Jets defenders, and his second came on a one-yard run on the opening play of the fourth quarter, NBC Sports reported. By that stage of the game, Gibbs had rushed for 100 yards on 18 carries and added 48 receiving yards on five catches, according to the outlet. NBC Sports also reported that the performance moved Gibbs into sole possession of second place in franchise history for rushing touchdowns, behind Barry Sanders. On the Jets' side, quarterback Geno Smith completed a long pass to Garrett Wilson, but the drive ended in two sacks and a field goal rather than a touchdown.

The Jets lost offensive lineman Dylan Parham to a knee injury during the game, with Jordan Meredith taking his place on the line, NBC Sports reported. Yahoo Sports reported that Detroit's defence struggled against Smith for much of the contest before producing the sack from Clark that sealed the victory in the closing minutes. The result contributes to both teams' Week 3 standings in the 2026 NFL season. Neither outlet reported any further scheduling details beyond the completed match.
