The Detroit Lions announced that they have placed quarterback Jared Goff and offensive lineman Matt Nelson on the reserve/COVID-19 list, while also removing Jamaal Williams and Marcus Gilbert from the same list.
Goff was in rare form in Week 15. He was accurate, stood tough in the pocket, made confident throws, led the team to a 30-12 upset victory over the previous NFC top seed Arizona Cardinals, and earned a nomination for the FedEx Air Player of the week honors.
Goff’s stock couldn’t be any higher in Detroit right now but this unfortunate turn of events could be costly.
