The Detroit Lions' 2018-19 season opened on a high note as safety Quandre Diggs, fresh off a 3-year contract extension, took an interception back for a touchdown.
Just 20 seconds into the game, Sam Darnold threw up a pass, his first of his career, which was intercepted by Diggs.
Diggs then took the pass for 37 yards, getting the Lions their first touchdown of the game.
According to the team, it was Diggs' first pick-six and also the first time the Lions took back an interception for a touchdown on the first defensive play of the game.
