The outgoing Detroit Lions quarterback is helping his replacement get acquainted to town.
Matthew Stafford said Monday on "The Mitch Albom Show" that he and L.A. Rams quarterback Jared Goff have exchanged text messages recently about their new homes.
The Lions agreed to trade Stafford to the Rams for Goff and three draft picks last month. The trade cannot become official until the start of the new league year March 17.
"I shot him a text," Stafford said. "We texted a little bit. Just told him that I know going out there I got big shoes to fill.
