I think those guys that are competing for that will be ready, whoever it may be. How does it change anything for me? Not really. Making sure I’m on the same page with both of them and making sure that they feel comfortable with everything

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Every offseason, teams that missed the playoffs face the same choice about their fuel source. They can lean into external motivation — the bad finish, the chip on the shoulder, the bulletin board material — or they can reach for something quieter and more durable.

The Detroit Lions' lack of youth in their quarterback room behind Jared Goff is concerning to one NFL analyst

Here is everything quarterback Jared Goff told local Detroit Lions reporters, ahead of their Week 1 contest at home against the New Orleans Saints. His excitement to kick off the 2026 NFL season and get out on the field.

When Ben Johnson departed the Lions in 2025 to become the Bears head coach, the Lions replaced him with John Morton.

"And I’m really, really excited about not only what Petzing is going to bring, but Jared with Petzing. I think it’s going to be big for us."

Jared Goff remains a safe, high floor quarterback who won't move the needle for fantasy managers, but won't cost them, either.

If you're a Lions fan, you're probably a fairly big fan of the work starting quarterback Jared Goff has done in his five years with the franchise. But head coach Dan Campbell feels like his QB1 is better than most NFL fans realize.

Once a perceived bridge quarterback, Detroit’s leader now commands an elite arsenal and impenetrable pocket, positioning him to dismantle defenses and claim the league’s most prestigious individual trophy.
