Thursday Night Football will feature its first divisional showdown this year as the Green Bay Packers take on the Detroit Lions. The teams have met more than 180 times, with the Packers leading the all-time series 105-75-7, but the Lions have won the last three times. Can you trust Lions quarterback Jared Goff and Packers quarterback Jordan Love in NFL DFS lineups on sites like FanDuel and DraftKings? Amon-Ra St. Brown is tied for ninth in the NFL in targets (28) and could be one of the popular NFL DFS picks.

Top NFL DFS picks for Thursday Night Football
One of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Thursday Night Football is Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. The 23-year-old has at least six receptions in all three games this season, including nine receptions for 102 yards last week against the Falcons. He has back-to-back games with exactly 102 receiving yards and ranks seventh in receiving yards (275) this season.
St. Brown has been the unquestioned favorite target for Jared Goff to begin the season, as his 28 targets are six more than the next highest (Sam LaPorta, 22). St. Brown had 106 receptions for 1,161 yards and six touchdowns last season and is on pace to surpass his his receptions and yardage totals this year. The Lions receiver won’t be a cheap option for Thursday Night Football NFL DFS lineups, but it’s difficult to find someone with a higher floor.
Part of McClure’s optimal NFL DFS strategy also includes rostering Packers receiver Jayden Reed. The second-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft leads the Packers in receiving yards (148) and is tied with Romeo Doubs for the most targets (20). Christian Watson, who was the Packers’ leading returning receiver this season, has missed the first three games with a hamstring injury, which has left Green Bay without a true No. 1 receiver. Reed has taken advantage of that opportunity early in his NFL career and is averaging 16.4 yards per catch.
Reed had three receptions for 63 yards last week against the Saints and has shown a quick rapport with quarterback Jordan Love. The Lions allowed the third-most passing yards in the NFL last season and the second-most yards per attempt (7.5 yards), so there should be opportunities for Green Bay receivers to make plays.
