Jahmyr Gibbs Shines as Lions' MVP | Detroit Lions News

Jahmyr Gibbs just won Fox Sports’ fan-voted Preseason Offensive Player of the Year award — and for good reason. The Lions’ explosive backslash is coming off a historic season with over 1,200 rushing yards, 13 TDs, plus nearly 600 receiving yards and 5 more scores. A three-time Pro Bowler already, he’s locked in with a massive 3-year, $67.5M contract, and with backup Isiah Pacheco sidelined, Gibbs is the clear focal point of Detroit’s offense. He’s a dual-threat nightmare for defenses, and fans are loving it. The Lions open their 2026-27 slate on Sept. 13 against the Saints at Ford Field — don’t miss it.
