Detroit took down the Giants, 34-27 in overtime, with Jared Goff throwing for 279 yards and two touchdowns on 28-of-42 passing. Running back Jahmyr Gibbs also had two rushing touchdowns and a receiving score in the victory.

The Lions have the most wins, and the most losses, of any NFL team playing on Thanksgiving. They hold a 38-45-2 record, according to ESPN. They beat the Chicago Bears 23-20 on Turkey Day last year, marking the first time in eight years Detroit has won on the holiday.

The NFL announced major punishments for Detroit Lions defenders Brian Branch and Jack Campbell for their on-field actions against the Giants.

The Detroit Lions (10-2) will try to put a frustrating Thanksgiving loss behind them when they welcome the Dallas Cowboys (6-6) to Ford Field for a Week 14 prime-time clash on Thursday Night Football.

The Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers will kick off their Thanksgiving game at Ford Field in Detroit at 1 p.m., 30 minutes later than normal.

As far as Pro Football Focus grades go, this was a middle-of-the-road game from the Lions as a team. The 73.1 overall grade was the highest Detroit has earned in its five losses this season. Dragging down the defensive score was the pass rush, which posted a season-low grade of 57.0.

Every Thanksgiving, the Detroit Lions and the Dallas Cowboys take to the NFL field. But have you ever wondered why that is?

Branch received a $23,186 fine for an unnecessary roughness penalty against the New York Giants, as he delivered a hit on a defenseless player. He received a fine for the same reason one week earlier stemming from a hit against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 11.
