Darren Waller has two touchdowns

Darren Waller has been the best tight end in the NFL through the first eight weeks of the season, and he is going to have a big game against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. As the weeks wear on, Waller is getting more and more involved in this Raiders offense, and the results have been off the charts.

Over the past two weeks, Waller has found the end zone three times, including two in the team’s loss to the Green Bay Packers. On Sunday, he will terrorize another NFC North opponent, once again going for multiple touchdowns against a shoddy Lions pass defense.

Detroit has been facing some incredible tight ends in recent weeks, and it won’t get any easier on Sunday against this Raiders passing attack that features Waller. This kid has put on the Silver and Black and become an absolute star, and he will get to leap into the Black Hole twice on Sunday.
