We were wrong about Jared Goff.... a lot. Here’s a look back on some of our historically bad takes on the Lions QB.
On Monday, Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions agreed to a new contract extension that makes the Lions quarterback the highest-paid player in franchise history. It’s a remarkable redemption story for Goff, who was unloaded to Detroit with a haul of draft picks so the Los Angeles Rams could chase (and win) a Super Bowl with Matthew Stafford.
It is truly a best-case scenario for Goff because many—if not most—athletes who are treated like he was with...
The Lions continue to pay their stars and Jared Goff is the latest to earn a massive extension. Do you approve of the terms?
The Detroit Lions made Jared Goff the second-highest paid quarterback in the NFL on Monday, signing him to a four-year extension worth $212 million and $170 million guaranteed. He is also the highest paid Lion ever, with the number coming in at $53 million AAV.
Goff is the third Lion to receive a massive extension this offseason, though the Lions didn’t make him the highest paid at his position like they did with Amon-Ra St. Brown...
Meko and Morgan discuss the Lions extending quarterback Jared Goff on the Pride of Detroit YouTube Channel.
It had been talked about on podcasts and in bars since the end of the season back in late January, and finally, we get to put it to bed. The Detroit Lions have extended starting quarterback Jared Goff, signing him to a four-year, $212 million contract extension.
If you have been reading at Pride of Detroit for a while, then you probably are aware that myself, along with others on staff, were pretty low on Goff in 2021 and even early in...
The Detroit Lions are signing Jared Goff to an extension worth over $50 million per year.
After signing foundational players Penei Sewell and Amon-Ra St. Brown to massive extensions, the Detroit Lions have inked a third key piece of their franchise. According to Adam Schefter, the Lions are signing Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension with a whopping $170 million guaranteed.
At this point, we don’t have the full details of the contract, but if those initial figures hold, it’ll make Goff the second-highest-paid quarterback in the NFL at $53 million per year average, trailing only Joe Burrow...
You can now purchase a Detroit Lions Dan Campbell jersey. Here’s how:
On Day 3 of the NFL Draft, the entire Detroit Lions war room was sporting the team’s new black jerseys, with head coach Dan Campbell’s name and number (89) on the back from his playing days. It was a neat moment, but it also sparked an important question among Lions fans.
Where can we get one?
When the Lions dropped their new uniforms in mid-April, only a select few jerseys were available to purchase, and a Campbell jersey was not one of them. Even now, there is [a...
For the second straight year—and just second time in Ford Field history—Detroit Lions season tickets have sold out.
Last year, Detroit Lions fans helped sell out season tickets for the first time in the franchise’s history at Ford Field. This year, they’ve done it again—three months earlier than they did in 2023.
The team announced Monday morning that their entire allotment of “Lions Loyal Memberships”—season tickets—have been accounted for.
“Our Lions Loyal Members are the heartbeat of our fanbase and the true foundation of our incredible home field advantage,” Lions chief operating officer Mike Disner said in a statement. “We...
The Detroit Lions have signed another rookie minicamp tryout: veteran TE Parker Hesse. Here’s more about the former defensive end.
On Sunday, it was reported the Detroit Lions were signing rookie minicamp tryout Kaden Davis to their 90-man roster. On Monday, the Lions confirmed that signing, along with one more player who was at Allen Park to try out: tight end Parker Hesse.
Hesse, 28, was actually the second oldest player at rookie minicamp (only to 29-year-old Mathieu Betts). Yet another NFL tight end who went to Iowa—although he was a defensive lineman in college—Hesse went undrafted in 2019, but...
Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw have already developed a friendship, and the Detroit Lions are hoping that takes both of their games to the next level.
It seems like destiny that the Detroit Lions drafted Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw Jr. with their first two picks in the 2024 NFL Draft. The pair of SEC cornerbacks just so happened to take their top-30, pre-draft visit in Detroit on the same day.
“It was great to actually get to know him a little bit better now because he seems like a cool dude, chill dude,” Rakestraw said on draft night. “His...
The Lions paid out big extensions to two premier players, and Jared Goff is next. Did Brad Holmes give us a hint of when to expect it?
The Detroit Lions made a lot of noise ahead of draft day in Detroit when they announced hefty extensions for wide receive Amon-Ra St. Brown and OT Penei Sewell just hours apart. It brought brief relief to Lions fans all over, until it quickly led to the question of where Jared Goff’s extension was. Brad Holmes and this front office have been very vocal about their faith in Goff and desire to sign...
The Detroit Lions are reportedly signing a rookie minicamp tryout who spent last year with the Michigan Panthers and Arizona Cardinals.
According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, the Detroit Lions are signing wide receiver Kaden Davis to their 90-man roster. Davis was with the team this weekend as part of their rookie minicamp tryout squad. He was notably the intended receiver on a pass that was picked off by Lions first-round pick Terrion Arnold. Davis initially beats Arnold on the crosser, but as the play breaks down, he couldn’t break free on a downfield route.
Davis entered the league in...
The Detroit Lions have signed four of their draft picks but Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw remain unsigned. Here’s why.
With 2024 Detroit Lions rookie minicamp underway, there’s a lot of information to consume. In addition to reading about observations from camp, fans received some clarity on how the Lions plan on using their newly acquired players, learned more about players' positional ranges, heard some fun quotes, found out which jersey numbers were assigned, and saw which rookies are signing their NFL contracts.
This offseason, the Lions drafted six players and signed another 15 undrafted rookie free agents. Of the...
With the Detroit Lions’ drastically improved team, how many rookies will make it onto the initial 53-man roster?
On Friday, we got our first look at the Detroit Lions’ rookie class. With rules being particularly strict about the level of participation allowed at this point in the offseason, it was only a minor taste. Yet it was still enough to make first impressions on these young players.
As coaches have repeated several times already this offseason, it will not be an easy path for these rookies. Over the first three years of Detroit’s roster rebuild, they often relied on their...
