Jahmyr Gibbs had a pretty season, nevertheless, even managing to give his fans one last impressive record in the final game of the season. The running back’s score in the game against the Bears managed to make the record in the league for the most games with a scrimmage touchdown in a player’s first three seasons. The record is currently held by Randy Moss and Barry Sanders.
Meanwhile, Gibbs continues to prove that he has a large fanbase in the league, especially after a Michigan-based bakery going viral for their life-size cake featuring the running back and Amon-Ra St. Brown. doing their famous touchdown celebration. Apparently, the cake took about four hundred hours to create along with sixty-five pounds of fondant.

On another note, Jahmyr Gibbs’ team is undoing plenty of changes with the season hardly coming to an end. The Lions have already let go of their offensive coordinator, John Morton, after just one season with the team, with Dan Campbell himself taking charge of the playcalling.
“I mean, I’m open to anything. I don’t know exactly where I’m at with that yet. I mean, I guess one of the good things if I did do that, you don’t have to worry about somebody else leaving. You don’t have to worry about your playcaller leaving. So that would be one of the perks of it. But listen, I’m going to think through all of that, and I think I really want to do what I feel is best for the team – and that included…”Dan Campbell said.
The Lions are not the only ones who have been making coaching changes. In fact, this Monday, the Raiders, the Browns and the Cardinals all let go of their head coaches, leading the league to term the day as NFL Black Monday.
