Green Bay Packers 31, Detroit Lions 24 | Ford Field, Detroit, Michigan | Thanksgiving Day | Attendance: 66,662
Jordan Love matched a career high with four touchdown passes, Micah Parsons posted 2.5 sacks, and Green Bay converted all three of its fourth-down attempts in a 31-24 win over the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving at Ford Field on November 27, 2025.
Love finished 18-of-30 for 234 yards with Dontayvion Wicks catching two of his scoring passes on six receptions for 94 yards. Parsons, acquired from Dallas on August 28 in exchange for defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks, set season highs in tackles (8) and sacks at the game’s biggest moments. His third-and-goal sack of Jared Goff from the Green Bay 4 with 3:26 remaining forced Detroit to settle for a field goal and a seven-point deficit. The performance brought his season total to 12.5, making him the first player since 1982, when the sack became an official statistic, to reach 12 or more in each of his first five NFL seasons.
Goff completed 20 of 26 passes for 256 yards and two touchdowns but absorbed three sacks for 23 yards in losses. Jameson Williams had career highs in receptions (7) and receiving yards (144) with a touchdown, but dropped a fourth-and-3 pass at the Green Bay 21 in the fourth quarter. Amon-Ra St. Brown left in the first quarter with an ankle injury and did not return, finishing without a reception on one target.

Injury Report
Green Bay: DT Devonte Wyatt was carted off with an ankle injury late in the fourth quarter. Coach Matt LaFleur said post-game: “It doesn’t look good. That’s a critical loss for our team and our defense.” CB Keisean Nixon (neck) returned after missing time the week prior. WR Matthew Golden, LB Quay Walker, and CB Nate Hobbs were inactive.
Detroit: WR Amon-Ra St. Brown left in the first quarter with an ankle injury sustained while blocking on a run play, was ruled out at halftime, and finished with no receptions. Coach Dan Campbell said: “I don’t think it is long, long term. It might be a week or two, if we’re lucky.” CB Terrion Arnold (concussion) and DE Marcus Davenport (shoulder) both returned from injuries and played. WR Kalif Raymond, TE Brock Wright, C Graham Glasgow, and S Kerby Joseph were inactive.

What was the Packers’ record after the Thanksgiving 2025 win over Detroit?
Green Bay improved to 8-3-1 with the win, completing a season sweep of Detroit after also winning 27-13 in the Week 1 meeting at Lambeau Field. The Packers held a head-to-head tiebreaker over the Lions in the NFC North standings.
The win gave Green Bay a head-to-head tiebreaker over Detroit after sweeping both regular-season meetings. The Packers sat at 8-3-1 through 13 games, one game behind the NFC North-leading Chicago Bears (8-3). Detroit, the two-time defending division champions, fell to 7-5 with their third loss in five games and dropped out of the NFC playoff picture at that stage of the season.
The Packers also left Ford Field with a concern in Devonte Wyatt, carted off with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter. The Lions dealt with losing their top wide receiver in the first quarter. Jameson Williams had the numbers, but his drop on fourth down with Detroit trailing by seven in the fourth quarter was the play that defined where both teams stood when the clock hit zero. It was Detroit’s sixth Thanksgiving loss in eight attempts against Green Bay.
