Lions' Jake Bates: Busy in Week 2
Bates went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all seven of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 52-21 win over the Bears.

Lions' Jake Bates: Makes solo FGA in loss
Bates connected on his only field-goal attempt while going 4-for-4 on PATs in Saturday's 45-31 NFC divisional-round playoff loss to the Commanders.
Bates was scarcely used again Saturday, making a 28-yard field goal late in the fourth quarter to narrow the deficit to 45-31. The kicker had a highly successful rookie campaign with the Lions and he'll likely enter next season with no competition.

Lions' Jake Bates: Capitalizes on only FGA in win
Bates made his only field-goal attempt while going 4-for-4 on extra-point tries in Sunday night's 31-9 win over Minnesota.
Bates connected on his only field-goal attempt as time expired in the first half, nailing a 48-yarder to give the Lions a 10-6 lead at the break. Additionally, the kicker got back on track when it comes to PATs, making all four of his tries in Week 18. Bates has now finished his rookie regular season having gone 26-for-29 on field-goal attempts while making 64 of 67 PATs over 17 games. He'll look to keep it up when Detroit returns to action in the NFC divisional round in two weeks.
