Lions Amon-Ra St. Brown on home games coming up
Amon-Ra St. Brown said the Lions have an opportunity to get their season back on track with their next three games at home.
The Detroit Lions are playing three games over the next 12 days, and it all starts against a struggling NFC East opponent at home.
The Lions (6-4, third in NFC North) are playing the New York Giants (2-9, fourth in NFC East) on Sunday, Nov. 23 at Ford Field in Detroit. The TV channel is Fox and it can be livestreamed on Fubo, which offers a free trial to potential subscribers. The Lions-Giants start time for kickoff is 1 p.m. ET.
Though the game is not mathematically a must-win for the Lions, but they need to bank a win against a sub-.500 opponent after their 16-9 Week 11 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles knocked them out of the top seven in the NFC playoffs.
The Lions are without starting tight end Sam LaPorta, however, as recent back surgery has likely knocked him out for the season. They are also missing three defensive starters for this game (Kerby Joseph, Terrion Arnold and Marcus Davenport), but help comes in the return of starting cornerback D.J. Reed.

The Giants are missing their most important player, as rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart has been ruled out against the Lions, as he continues recovering from a brain injury. Veteran quarterback Jameis Winston will make his second start of the season with the Giants.
We’ll have all the Lions vs Giants score updates from this critical game below, with highlights and analysis.
Lions vs Giants live updates
This section will be updated after kickoff.
If recent history is any indication, the Lions probably aren’t losing this game.
As ESPN’s Adam Schefter points out, the Lions have won 13 games in a row following a loss, dating back to 2022. They’re also favored by 13½ points according to the latest betting lines from BetMGM.
Linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez hasn’t played in 2025 while recovering from an ACL injury suffered in 2024. He’ll be active for the first time this year against the Giants, though it’s unclear how much he will play.
Lions cornerback D.J. Reed, who signed a three-year, $48 million contract ahead of the 2025 season, hasn’t played since suffering a hamstring strain against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 7.
That changes today, as Reed was taken off injured reserve on Saturday and is expected to play against the Giants.
As expected, Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold and safety Kerby Joseph have been listed as inactive, along with four other players.
Offensive linemen Penei Sewell and Taylor Decker, who were listed as questionable on the Friday injury report, are active and expected to play.
After recording zero receptions against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 7, Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has been on a hot streak, recording at least four receptions and one receiving touchdown in each of his last three games.
If he gets one touchdown catch today, it will set a new career high for him for consecutive games with a touchdown reception (four).
The Lions are currently looking up in the NFC North standings at the first-place Chicago Bears, who play the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
But the Steelers will be without starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers, instead starting backup quarterback Mason Rudolph, who has thrown only 18 passes so far this season.
It’s not much of a secret if you’ve been following the Lions on social media this week, but the Lions will be wearing their black uniforms today for the second time this season.

Lions vs Giants prediction
Dave Birkett, Detroit Free Press: The sky isn’t falling for the Lions with three losses in their past five games, but they need to right the ship before December and this is the perfect opportunity. The Giants have played close games the past two weeks, but they’re not a good team overall. I expect the Lions to have their way offensively and for Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown and the running game to get back on track. The pick: Lions 34, Giants 17.
