Matt Patricia said he has "1,000%" trust in Matthew Stafford a day after the Detroit Lions quarterback had a heat-of-the-moment outburst on the sideline.

Stafford was caught on camera yelling, "Trust me," twice, after Patricia ordered a timeout with the play clock running down on a key third-and-5 play late in Sunday's 27-27 tie with the Arizona Cardinals.
