Matthew Stafford completed 11-of-15 passes for 173 yards and two touchdowns to help the Detroit Lions defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars, 22-17, in the third full week of preseason action.

Detroit (2-1) trailed most of the night, but rookie running back Zach Zenner ran for a 3-yard touchdown with 1:41 remaining for the game-winner. Wide receiver Golden Tate caught a 62-yard touchdown pass in the 2nd quarter.

The Lions will return home to Ford Field to finish off the preseason when they face the Buffalo Bills this Thursday night at 7:30 pm.
