Amon-Ra St. Brown of the Detroit Lions had a standout performance in a thrilling overtime game against the New York Giants, recording nine receptions for one hundred forty-nine yards and a touchdown. This victory marked a significant day for the former USC Trojan, who reached a remarkable milestone earlier in the week, hitting five hundred career receptions in just seventy-seven games, making him the second-fastest player in NFL history to achieve this feat. St. Brown also made franchise history for the Lions, surpassing even the legendary Calvin Megatron Johnson with the most one hundred-yard receiving games. His success is attributed to his hard work and dedication, as well as advice from his college coach at USC, Keary Colbert. Currently, St. Brown is having an exceptional season, ranking among the top five in the NFL for receiving touchdowns, receiving yards, and receptions, and is well on his way to earning his fourth consecutive Pro Bowl selection and third straight All-Pro honor.
