Detroit Lions’ Golden Tate reveals hidden ‘secret’
Ever since Golden Tate joined the Detroit Lions in 2014, the team has been missing something big.

Did it come just by facing Head Coach Patricia’s former team and perennial powerhouse New England Patriots? Or was it perhaps, a realization that things simply had to change? In the end, what truly spurred the Lions resurgence doesn’t matter.
