Five questions with Dave Burkett, who covers the Detriot Lions for the Detroit Free Press, about Sunday’s matchup with the Raiders at the Coliseum:
1. Not long after Derek Carr signed a contract extension which temporarily . made him the NFL’s highest paid quarterback, the Lions signed Matthew Stafford for a larger number. There remains speculation that Carr isn’t necessarily the Raiders quarterback going forward under Jon Gruden. How would you describe the commitment of the Lions and/or Matt Patricia and the Lions to Stafford?
The Lions feel really good about their quarterback situation right now.
