When Matthew Stafford went down with injury, the Lions’ season was over. Jeff Driskel performed decently in relief, but he suffered an injury and went on the Injured Reserve. Next up was David Blough, who shined in his debut against the Chicago Bears on Thanksgiving.
However, the luster is wearing off, and Blough is revealing what we originally expected: he is a mediocre backup at best. His arm is subpar, from a lack of velocity to accuracy. The awareness he showcased against the Bears is gone, and his pocket presence is costing him sacks.
