The Detroit Lions are reportedly set to reward quarterback Jared Goff with a contract extension, acknowledging his significant role in the team’s recent success. Over the past two seasons, Goff’s performance has spurred speculation about a forthcoming lucrative deal to secure his future with the Lions.
Despite optimism surrounding the extension, Adam Schefter recently reported that an agreement between Goff and the Lions is not immediately on the horizon, with both parties still having ground to cover in their negotiations. This update suggests that while an extension is anticipated, details are still being ironed out.
GM Brad Holmes’ Confirmation
Brad Holmes, the Lions’ General Manager, appeared on 97.1 The Ticket with Jon Jansen and Jim Costa, where he affirmed the team’s commitment to Goff. Holmes expressed unequivocal support for the quarterback, stating that Goff has earned his upcoming extension, it’s a high priority for the Lions, and that both sides are working hard toward getting it done.
First and foremost he’s earned an extension, and it’s important, it’s a high priority for us,” Holmes said. “Both sides are working really really hard. These things just take time.”
This endorsement highlights the organization’s recognition of Goff’s impact and their intent to keep him at the helm of the Lions’ offense.
