Lions To Re-Open Extension Talks With Jared Goff

10 months ago

The Detroit Lions are expected to "ramp up" contract extension talks with quarterback Jared Goff this upcoming offseason, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Goff has looked excellent in his third season with Detroit, completing 67.3 percent of his passes for 4,575 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. All the while, the 29-year-old has led the Lions to a historic playoff run, which continues Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Rapoport notes that while Goff was a throw-in piece to the Matthew Stafford trade in 2021, the Lions have always viewed him as a potential franchise cornerstone and now have the opportunity to extend him as such.
