St. Brown recorded 14 receptions on 18 targets for 193 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 48-42 loss to the Bills.
The Lions were forced into a pass-heavy offense as they chased the Bills all game, and the result was a career-best performance for St. Brown. The highlight came on a 66-yard touchdown catch and run, during which St. Brown split the Buffalo defense down the middle and out-raced several defenders to the end zone. He also chipped in long gains of 24, 31 and 16 yards to top 100 yards for the fourth time this season and for the first time since Week 11.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Held in check by Packers
Rotowire
St. Brown brought in five of six targets for 43 yards and rushed once for 10 yards in the Lions' 34-31 win over the Packers on Thursday night.
As had been the case in four of his previous five meetings with the Packers, St. Brown was held to under 57 receiving yards while furnishing his fourth-lowest yardage total of the campaign. However, he saved his most valuable contribution for his final catch, as he brought in a 16-yard dart from Jared Goff over the middle on second-and-17 with 1:42 remaining. Despite the modest numbers Thursday, St. Brown should be heavily involved in a Week 15 home matchup against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 15 that could serve as a Super Bowl preview.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Makes five catches in Week 13
Rotowire
St. Brown (knee) caught five of seven targets for 73 yards in Thursday's 23-20 win over the Bears.
St. Brown was listed as questionable due to a knee injury coming in, but he was his usual effective self, leading the Lions in receiving yards while tying Jameson Williams for the team leads in targets and catches. St. Brown has gone back-to-back games without getting into the end zone following an eight-game touchdown streak. That stretch included a Week 9 performance against the Packers in which St. Brown caught all seven of his targets for 56 yards and a score. Detroit will face Green Bay again on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Suiting up on Thanksgiving
Rotowire
St. Brown (knee) is listed as active Thursday against the Bears.
Working on a short week, the Lions held three straight walkthroughs ahead of Thursday's game, and a knee injury contained St. Brown to no activity Monday, limited participation Tuesday and a full session Wednesday. On Tuesday, the wideout relayed to Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com that he planned to be available for Week 13 action, which now has been confirmed. St. Brown thus will remain the featured option in Detroit's passing game versus a Chicago defense that has allowed the fourth-most YPT (8.99) to opposing wide receivers this season.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Limited, but plans to play Thursday
Rotowire
St. Brown (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice.
Following Sunday's 24-6 win over the Colts, the Lions have held a pair of walk-through sessions to begin Week 13 prep. After being listed as a non-participant Monday, St. Brown took a step forward in his estimated activity Tuesday, which bodes well for his chances of suiting up Thursday against the Bears. For his part, St. Brown told Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com that he's planning on being ready to go for the Thanksgiving Day game.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Nursing knee injury
Rotowire
St. Brown was listed as a non-participant at Monday's walkthrough due to a knee injury, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
The knee injury is a new concern for the Lions' star wideout, who last made an appearance on Detroit's injury report in September with a quadricep issue. St. Brown played his normal amount of snaps (94 percent) in this past Sunday's win over the Colts, so it's unclear if he came down with the injury during the contest or if it's anything to be concerned about. The Lions have a Thanksgiving Day matchup with the Bears, and the quick turnaround makes his status worth monitoring over the next couple of days. Along with St. Brown, Kalif Raymond (foot) also was listed as a non-participant Monday. If neither receiver is able to go Thursday, Jameson Williams, Tim Patrick and Allen Robinson would be in line to serve as the Lions' primary wideouts.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Modest production in easy win
Rotowire
St. Brown corralled six of seven targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 24-6 win over Indianapolis.
St. Brown led his team in receptions while tying Jameson Williams for the lead in targets Sunday. The former was unable to push his impressive scoring streak past eight weeks, but he still produced decent fantasy totals for managers in PPR formats. St. Brown has accrued a 71-747-9 receiving line through 11 contests, making him one of the premier wideouts in the NFL ahead of a Thanksgiving Day matchup against the Bears.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Massive output in lopsided win
Rotowire
St. Brown secured all 11 targets for 161 yards and two touchdowns and rushed once for minus-4 yards in the Lions' 52-6 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
St. Brown led the Lions in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, and the first two totals tied and set a season high, respectively. The elite wideout also extended a touchdown-reception streak to eight games with scoring grabs of 27 and nine yards, his first multi-TD-effort of the campaign. St. Brown will look to build on his third 100-yard tally of 2024 when he faces a vulnerable Colts defense on the road in Week 12.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Extends TD streak to seven games
Rotowire
St. Brown corralled six of eight targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 win over the Texans.
St. Brown extended his impressive touchdown streak to seven games by taking a short reception for a score in the fourth quarter of Sunday's narrow victory. The star wideout has been as advertised through nine starts this season, producing a gaudy 54-524-7 stat line over that span. St. Brown's touchdown streak may produce the most excitement for next Sunday's tilt against Jacksonville in a home matchup for a title contender against a rebuilding squad.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Keeps TD streak alive
Rotowire
St. Brown recorded seven receptions on seven targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-14 win over the Packers.
The Lions had limited pass volume due to rainy conditions and positive game script, leaving St. Brown as the only player to see more than three targets. He primarily worked in short areas of the field, though he did manage a long 26-yard reception late in the second quarter. That came after St. Brown extended his touchdown streak to six games by capping the team's first drive with a three-yard catch in the end zone on fourth down.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Catches TD in blowout win
Rotowire
St. Brown recorded four catches on four targets for 37 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 47-9 win over the Cowboys.
St. Brown saw his fewest targets of the season, primarily due to game script as the Lions took to the air only nine times in the final two quarters. He still managed to save his day early in the fourth quarter with a four-yard touchdown reception, marking his third straight game with a trip to the end zone. Overall, St. Brown has now topped 100 yards or found the end zone in four of five matchups on the campaign.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Records TDs through multiple means
Rotowire
St. Brown secured all six targets for 45 yards and a touchdown and also threw a seven-yard touchdown on his only pass attempt in the Lions' 42-29 win over the Seahawks on Monday night.
St. Brown recorded a team-high number of catches and his second receiving touchdown of the campaign on an eight-yard grab in the fourth quarter. However, his most eye-catching moment of the night came in the unusual role of quarterback, as he threw a seven-yard touchdown pass to Jared Goff on the Lions' version of the Philly Special just past the midway point of the third quarter. St. Brown now has at least six receptions in three straight games, and when he returns to action against the Cowboys on the road Sunday, Oct. 13 following a Week 5 bye, he'll be striving to reverse a two-game trend of dwindling receiving yardage totals.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Finds paydirt in Week 3 win
Rotowire
St. Brown caught seven of eight targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Cardinals.
St. Brown caught a five-yard touchdown in the second quarter, then played a key role in Detroit's next touchdown in the final minute of the first half, as St. Brown made a one-yard catch and lateraled to Jahmyr Gibbs, who ran the remaining 20 yards into the end zone. After catching just three of six targets for 13 yards in Week 1, St. Brown has bounced back with 18 catches on 26 targets for 192 yards and a touchdown in two subsequent games, giving the star receiver plenty of momentum heading into a Week 4 home game against the Seahawks on MNF.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Dealing with contusion, cramping
Rotowire
St. Brown exited with about 30 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Buccaneers due to a leg contusion and cramping, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
St. Brown missed the Lions' final five plays of the contest due to a possible lower-body issue, but the wideout seems to have escaped Week 2 action without any serious harm. That said, St. Brown's status nonetheless merits monitoring ahead of this coming Sunday's game against the Cardinals. After being limited to three catches for 13 yards in the Lions' Week 1 overtime win over the Rams, Brown bounced back in Sunday's contest with 11 receptions for 119 yards on 19 targets.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Possible lower-body injury
Rotowire
St. Brown, who briefly left Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, appears to be dealing with a lower-body issue, Kyle Meinke of mlive.com reports.
Per Meinke, St. Brown was seen limping out of the locker room after Sunday's contest, but for now the wideout's unspecified injury isn't believed to be serious. With that in mind, coach Dan Campbell said, "He's all right. I don't think it's anything long-term, so that's good news." In any case, this report makes St. Brown's status worth monitoring ahead of next weekend's game against the Cardinals.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Totals 89 yards in playoff loss
Rotowire
St. Brown recorded seven receptions on 11 targets for 87 yards in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the 49ers. He added one rush for two yards.
St. Brown unsurprisingly had a key role in the Detroit offense, compiling double-digit targets for the fourth time in his last six games. He failed to top 100 yards or reach the end zone for the first time in that span, though he still managed long receptions of 23 and 17 yards -- both of which set up scores -- to make his mark on the contest. St. Brown has improved in each of his three campaigns in the league, and he closed the 2023 regular season with 119 receptions for 1,515 yards and 10 touchdowns. He'll be entering the final year of his rookie contract in 2024 and could be headed for a significant contract extension with the Lions this offseason.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Finishes regular season strong
Rotowire
St. Brown brought in seven of 10 targets for 144 yards and a touchdown in the Lions' 30-20 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
St. Brown found himself in the familiar position of leading the Lions across the board in receiving categories, essentially playing a normal amount of snaps in a game Detroit needed to position itself for a potential ascension to the No. 2 seed. The third-year wideout's yardage total was his second-highest tally of the season, and he heads into the postseason riding the momentum of a 119-1,515-10 line across 16 regular-season contests, including three 100-yard efforts in the last four games.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Picks apart Vikings secondary
Rotowire
St. Brown secured 12 of 14 targets for 106 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 30-24 win over the Vikings.
Minnesota had no answer for St. Brown with the division title on the line. Continuing to pile on the stats after already setting career highs in receiving yards (1,175) and touchdowns (seven) last week against Denver, St. Brown had his way with a burnable Vikings secondary over the middle of the field while also finding success working the sidelines and on a screen. With few receivers leaguewide handling bigger roles on offense, St. Brown should again stay busy when Detroit travels to Dallas in Week 17.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Held to 21 yards
Rotowire
St. Brown recorded three receptions on nine targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Bears.
St. Brown saw a fairly typical number of targets, but he posted a season-low yardage total. He got off to a fairly normal start to the game by recording all three of his receptions within Detroit's first three offensive possessions. However, he was shut out from there as the Lions' entire offense faltered in the final two quarters. St. Brown has been one of the most consistent receivers this season, but he has only 70 total receiving yards combined across the last two games.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Finds end zone on quiet afternoon
Rotowire
St. Brown brought in two of six targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the Lions' 33-28 win over the Saints on Sunday.
The star receiver took a rare back seat to rookie Sam LaPorta on the afternoon, with the latter pacing the Lions' air attack with a career-best 9-140-1 line. St. Brown was able to salvage his otherwise quiet day with a 25-yard touchdown grab over the middle just before the midway point of the fourth quarter, but he finished with season lows in receptions, receiving yards and targets. St. Brown, who'd posted no fewer than six receptions or 77 yards in any game since Week 4 prior to Sunday, will look to bet back on track at the expense of the Bears on the road in Week 14.
