Lions Rookie Isaac TeSlaa Wows With Another One-Handed Catch Against Bears

Coaches have committed to expanding his role following an illness-limited debut.

Overview

  • TeSlaa hauled in a one-handed, 29-yard sideline grab late in the second quarter, getting an elbow down to complete the catch.
  • He finished Week 2 with one reception, and the play set up a Detroit touchdown before halftime.
  • Detroit rolled past Chicago with more than 500 total yards as Jared Goff threw five touchdown passes, including three to Amon-Ra St. Brown.
  • The third-round pick’s first NFL catch was a one-handed touchdown in Week 1 against Green Bay, when Dan Campbell said illness had limited his practice time and snaps.
  • Offensive coordinator John Morton said ahead of the Bears game that TeSlaa’s role would grow, and the play drew wider attention, including a social media quip from Jason Kelce.
