Jahmyr Gibbs has been a nightmare assignment for defenses all season long — and now they finally get a breather. With the Detroit Lions entering their bye week, opponents can temporarily relax from the stress of trying to chase down one of the NFL’s fastest and most explosive young running backs.
Gibbs has taken a major leap in his second year, turning every touch into a potential highlight and forcing defensive coordinators to lose sleep planning around him. Whether he’s slicing through defenders on the ground or burning them as a pass-catching weapon, he’s proven to be a matchup problem that few can solve.
The scary part? After a week of rest, Gibbs is only going to come back even fresher, faster, and more dangerous. Enjoy the break while you can, NFL defenses — because the Jahmyr Gibbs show is far from finished.
