Lions QB Goff misses Wednesday practice

Detroit Lions quarterback JARED GOFF missed practice on Wednesday as he continues to deal with an oblique injury that is clouding his status for Sunday’s game against the Cleveland Browns. FellowMore quarterback TIM BOYLE was expected to see reps with the first-team offense, with DAVID BLOUGH in the quarterback mix as well.

Rams WR Woods to get more opportunities?

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that he would like to get wide receiver ROBERT WOODS more involved in the team’s offense. He added that he is not worriedMore about Woods, who has played second-fiddle to fellow wide receiver COOPER KUPP to start the season. In the past three years, Woods averaged more than 132 targets per season with JARED GOFF under center. Through four games with new quarterback MATTHEW STAFFORD, Woods has seen just 25 targets compared to Kupp – who has seen 46 targets. Less

The Detroit Lions quarterback room took a hit with backup quarterback TIM BOYLE set to miss an indefinite period of time after breaking his right throwing thumb in the team’s preseasonMore finale last week against the Indianapolis Colts.

Detroit Lions wide receiver TYRELL WILLIAMS is reportedly dealing with a minor groin injury that has sidelined him during practice this week. Williams, Detroit’s top free agent acquisition of the offseason,More is expected to be ready for the September 12th season opener against the San Francisco 49ers.

Rodgers turned down contract extension with Packers

Disgruntled Green Bay quarterback AARON RODGERS reportedly turned down a contract extension this offseason that would have kept him with the Packers for the next five years. The extension would haveMore also made Rodgers the highest-paid player in the league. Instead, Rodgers declined the offer and is tied with Detroit Lions quarterback JARED GOFF (let that sink in) for fifth-highest paid player in the league. Less

Around the NFL: Jared Goff

There's a story out that the Lions like what they're seeing from Jared Goff. New coach Dan Campbell saying nice things about Goff's command in the huddle and the pretty spiral he throws and whatnot. Might be enough to make you think Detroit is anticipating good things this season. It seems unlikely.   more »

Factoid: Jared Goff

I have very no confidence the Lions can get Jared Goff back on track. I think he’s a flawed quarterback, who needs everything around him to be right, and I don’t think he’ll get that in Detroit.  more »

Rams DT Donald says he was “shocked” by trade

Los Angeles Rams star defensive tackle AARON DONALD said this week that he was “shocked” to hear about his team sending quarterback JARED GOFF to the Detroit Lions in exchange forMore MATTHEW STAFFORD. Donald said that Stafford is a “great quarterback”, while also adding that Goff would be his “brother forever”. The Rams made it to the Super Bowl with Goff running the offense and Donald leading the defense, but the team ultimately did not think that combo would get them back to that level. Less

Factoid: Matthew Stafford

The Rams are taking a big swing on Matthew Stafford. What they’re hoping for, I think, is to get a quarterback who can connect on more big throws.  more »

Free agent market heating up for QB Winston

With the MATTHEW STAFFORD for JARED GOFF trade in place between the Rams and the Lions, the free agent market for quarterback JAMEIS WINSTON is reportedly heating up. While he couldMore certainly remain in New Orleans, several teams are said to be interested in his services. With the Saints, Winston is not guaranteed a starting role due to the presence of DREW BREES (for now) and TAYSOM HILL. Several teams see Winston as a potential starter, with both the Colts and Bears being linked to him thus far. Less

Quarterback JARED GOFF is excited to be headed to the Detroit Lions and to a team that he feels “wants and appreciates” him.

Around the NFL: Trading Places: Stafford and Goff

There was a report yesterday that a Matthew Stafford trade should be expected soon. Very soon indeed: it happened overnight. Stafford is a Ram and Jared Goff is a Lion, and Detroit also gets two first-round picks and a third-rounder. Former No. 1 overall picks swapped for each other; shocking stuff.   more »
