Gibbs secured his contract extension and stepped into a full 'bell-cow' role, accounting for 50.4% of the Lions' 369 total yards and 57.7% of their 26 first downs in Week 1. His 183 total yards rank fourth-most by a Detroit Lions player in a season opener in franchise history, featuring seven runs of 10-plus yards, 12 missed tackles forced, and 82 yards after contact. The source notes his vision, patience, pacing, and acceleration were masterful, and he accounted for 35 yards on the final overtime touchdown drive when the team needed it most. Despite a fumble overturned on replay, Gibbs remains primed for a career season as a strong Offensive Player of the Year contender.
