Link to story Lions | Contract talks start with Jared Goff Tue Apr 16, 06:32 PM
Detroit Lions QB Jared Goff said he has started contract extension talks with the Lions but would not say how advanced the talks are at this time.
| Footballguys view: The Lions invested a third-round pick last year in quarterback Hendon Hooker. It's not clear if they view Hooker as a replacement for Goff or if the youngster is more of a fallback plan should they fail to get a new deal done with the veteran. However it plays out, as Profootblltalk.com suggests, the Lions have found a quarterback who has taken them to the brink of the Super Bowl. He's still only 29. They surely want to keep him. Fantasy managers, who can land Goff at high-end QB2 prices, will have a viable play with a strong supporting cast in a high-powered offense -- one capable of delivering QB1 numbers on any given Sunday. |
