DETROIT LION QB DROPS A SHOCKING MESSAGE ON SOCIAL MEDIA TO TEAM/FAN........

Dan Campbell had simple advice for Jared Goff after the Detroit Lions acquired the quarterback in March 2021.

Goff, the No. 1 selection in the 2016 NFL draft, was traded by the Los Angeles Rams for veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford, a move that also gave the Lions two future first-round picks. Once nicknamed “Mr. Perfect” during his playing career at California, Goff packed his bags and left behind the state he’d called home his entire life.

Lions coach Dan Campbell watches players, including quarterback Jared Goff (16) stretch during practice during minicamp on Thursday, June 9, 2022, in Allen Park.
When he finally arrived in Detroit, he met Campbell. The two’s early conversations still resonate with Goff more than a year later. In a recent appearance on “The Pivot Podcast,” Goff shed light on what Campbell — then three months into his job as Lions head coach — told him in their initial moments, and why it has sparked Goff’s passion for helping rebuild the franchise.
