One of the more interesting camp battles this year has been for the backup quarterback position. The Detroit Lions signed Tim Boyle to a one-year deal this offseason and while he’s been the favorite to be Jared Goff’s backup, he hasn’t exactly distanced himself from David Blough.

In 2020, the Lions decided to keep only two QBs, despite it being a weird season with COVID restrictions and players suddenly unavailable to play.
