The Lions have taken a 16-6 lead over the Dolphins on November 8, 2026, after Jahmyr Gibbs scored an eight-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-1. Lions coach Dan Campbell has opted to go for it on fourth down successfully three times today, including a pass from Jared Goff to Isaac TeSlaa and a fake punt pass from punter Jack Fox. Despite struggles against the Dolphins' pass rush, the Lions' defense has kept Miami largely in check. The Dolphins have yet to attempt a fourth down conversion and trail by two scores heading into the fourth quarter.
