Jalen Reagor handed Taylor Decker, Lions bulletin board material with a guarantee that the Vikings would win in Detroit
The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Detroit Lions 34-23 on Sunday after ex-Eagles wide receiver guaranteed a division-clinching victory.
Jalen Reagor Guaranteed a Win
To make things worse for Jalen Reagor, he finished with zero catches for zero yards and was only targeted one time in the loss. Reagor also returned one punt for nine yards. To be clear, even Penei Sewell had more catches than Reagor. He’s a tackle on the Lions and hauled in a nine yard reception.

The comments obviously made their way into the Lions’ locker room. Following the game, Taylor Decker was asked about his own guarantee, he mentioned Reagor’s unprompted.
“I think I’ve earned the right to give my opinion on (SOL),” Decker said. “I feel like I know what it looks like. So, tough look for Jalen Reagor this week, huh?” – M Live
Reagor now has a total of six receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown on the season. He has also ran the ball twice for a total of 25 yards. As for the Vikings, they are probably the worst 10-3 team of all time. They entered Sunday just one win away from clinching the NFC North but instead, got embarrassed by the Detroit Lions on the road.
The Lions moved to 6-7 on the season and are creeping closer to the Wild Card. After starting the season in typical Detroit Lions fashion, they have won five out of their last six games. Their only loss over that span came on November 24th when they fell to the Buffalo Bills at home, 28-25.
The Eagles clinched a playoff berth already after dismantling the New York Giants on Sunday. Here’s how the offense in Philadelphia has worked out without Reagor.
Eagles Receiving Stats
- AJ Brown: 65 REC, 1,020 YDS, 10 TD
- DeVonta Smith: 66 REC, 775 YDS, 5 TD
- Quez Watkins: 26 REC, 315 YDS, 3 TD
- Zach Pascal: 14 REC, 144 YDS, 1 TD
I’ll let the stats speak for themselves. Needless to say, I don’t think that a single person in Philadelphia cares that Jalen Reagor is no longer wearing midnight green.
