The Minnesota Vikings continued their winning streak, defeating the Detroit Lions 23-10 on Thursday in Minneapolis. Jordan Addison's 65-yard rushing touchdown late in the fourth quarter sealed the deal for the Vikings, who claimed their fourth consecutive victory.

The loss marked the end of the Lions' season, while the Vikings secured a spot in the playoffs. Aaron Jones Sr. also contributed to the Vikings' win with a touchdown. Will Reichard's field goals, including a 56-yarder, helped Minnesota maintain a comfortable lead. The Vikings' victory sets them up for a potentially promising postseason run.
