2024 Fantasy Outlook
On the heels of a surprising QB10 season in 2022, Goff was even better last year, finishing seventh at the position in fantasy. Offensive coordinator Ben Johnson provided 605 pass attempts, second most in the league, as the Lions ran the second most plays overall (66.9 per game) and often extended drives on fourth down (21 conversions, 2nd). Goff capitalized for 4,575 yards (2nd) and 30 TD passes (4th) despite rarely looking downfield. A mere 6.3 percent of his attempts traveled at least 20 yards -- the lowest rate among qualified passers -- but he was successful when he did go deep, completing 48.0 percent (6th). Goff’s receivers helped him notch 69 completions of at least 20 yards, second only to Brock Purdy’s 72. That pushed his YPA to 7.6 (8th) even though his average target depth was 6.7 (29th). The key pass catchers are back this season. WR Amon-Ra St. Brown and TE Sam LaPorta are among the top players at their respective positions, and Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery combined for 68 receptions out of the backfield last season. Speedy WR Jameson Williams could be on the verge of a breakout after being limited by a knee injury and suspension his first two years. The Lions also boast one of the league’s best offensive lines, replacing standout RG Jonah Jackson (Rams) with another quality veteran in Kevin Zeitler. The only major knock is that Goff doesn't run, compiling a mere 181 yards and two TDs across 48 starts for the Lions. Still, he's proven it's not a death sentence for his fantasy value, making up for it with both efficiency and volume as a passer. Read Past Outlooks

Lands four-year, $212M extension
Goff agreed to a four-year, $212 million contract extension with the Lions on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The deal contains $170 million guaranteed, and Goff is now the highest-paid player in Lions franchise history. The 2016 No. 1 overall pick of the Rams, Goff was acquired from Los Angeles in the Matthew Stafford deal following the 2020 season and has resurrected his career under Detroit offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. In three seasons with Detroit, Goff has completed 66.5 percent of his passes -- up from 63.4 percent with Los Angeles -- and has thrown for 12,258 yards with a stellar 78:27 TD:INT. He's lowered his turnover rate with Detroit and just helped lead the team to the NFC Championship Game last season. Goff is still just 29 years old and is locked in with the Lions for at least the next few seasons.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
GM expresses desire for extension
In an appearance on "97.1 The Ticket" on Thursday, general manager Brad Holmes said Goff has "earned" a contract extension and that a new deal is "a high priority for us and both sides are working really, really hard," Nick Baumgardner and Amos Morale of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Lions have had a busy offseason, signing tackle Penei Sewell and wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown to multi-year extensions. Holmes expressed his desire for a deal with Goff to be done already, but noted that "things just kind of take a while, especially with the quarterback market. But I do have faith that it's [going to] get done." Goff helped the Lions capture their first division title in 30 years, and he finished the regular season with 4,575 yards and 30 touchdowns, second and fourth best in the NFL, respectively.

2016
Goff had a career revival last season, surprisingly finishing QB10 in fantasy. On about 100 more attempts than in his first season in Detroit, he increased his passing yards by nearly 1,200 and his TDs by 10. Goff meshed well with first-year offensive coordinator Ben Johnson as his YPA jumped a full yard to 7.6 (7th) with a league-high TD/INT rate (4.14). He was particularly impressive in the second half of the season when he threw 15 TDs and no interceptions. He still didn’t throw downfield much -- 8.0 percent of attempts were beyond 20 yards (28th) -- but when he did, he was more accurate than usual (51.9 on-target percentage - 8th) and his receivers helped with 12 40-yard completions, second only to Patrick Mahomes (13). That number likely will regress, and while Goff again has Amon-Ra St. Brown to target, he’ll be without Jameson Williams the first six games due to suspension. Marvin Jones returned to Detroit in free agency, but he’s now 33. And tight end Sam LaPorta, a second-round pick, was highly effective after the catch in college, but it usually takes tight ends time to adapt to the NFL. In the backfield, first-round pick Jahmyr Gibbs is a skilled pass catcher, replacing D'Andre Swift, while RB David Montgomery takes over for Jamaal Williams as the big back. The Lions have one of the best offensive lines in the league, so Goff should at least have time.
