The Detroit Lions have themselves a superstar wide receiver in Amon-Ra St. Brown.
St. Brown is coming off of his first All-Pro nod after turning in his second consecutive 100-catch season.
He also put up a career-high 1,515 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Being the star that he is, he was cast in the Netflix documentary Receiver.
While recently appearing on The Today Show, St. Brown showed his appreciation for the opportunity to appear on the series but also had an honest take regarding the ending of Detroit’s magical season last year.
According to reporter Brad Galli, St. Brown said that the NFC Championship game was “hard to watch.”

Detroit had perhaps the greatest season in the history of their franchise, at least in the Super Bowl era.
They won 12 games en route to winning the NFC North for the first time.
The team would go on to beat an old friend in Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams in the first round of the playoffs.
Then, they would conquer the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the second round.
In the NFC Championship Game out in San Francisco, they jumped out to a 24-7 lead but ended up losing 34-31.
They were on the doorstep of making their first-ever Super Bowl appearance.
It was a tough ending to an unbelievable season in the Motor City.
