In his first game as an NFL quarterback, former Auburn QB Jarrett Stidham has recorded his first pro touchdown.
The New England Patriots are in action against the Detroit Lions Thursday night. Stiddham got in the game in the second quarter after Brian Hoyer (New England QB Tom Brady is not playing). In the second quarter, Stiddham found WR Jakobi Meyers for a short touchdown pass, putting New England up 20-0. Check out the clip below:

Stidham is 4-of-6 for 46 yards and the touchdown so far. The former Auburn quarterback will likely get to play more in the second half. Stidham’s preseason stats won’t make any record books, but it’s still a memorable moment for the former Tigers signal-caller.
