Lions coach highlights limited role for Isaac TeSlaa in offense
Summary

Detroit Lions wide receivers coach Scottie Montgomery stated that Isaac TeSlaa's opportunities will remain limited behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. In the first two games of the 2026 NFL season, TeSlaa has caught two passes for 26 yards. Montgomery noted TeSlaa's main chances may come in high-pressure situations. With the Week 3 matchup against the New York Jets approaching, it appears TeSlaa will need to step up if he is to see increased involvement, contingent on injuries to St. Brown, Williams, or Sam LaPorta.
