Ok, let me start this thing off by saying that I don’t think this will happen for the Detroit Lions. It’s not totally out of the realm of possibility. Players have left teams and then been traded back to them before. That actually happened this week when the Jets traded Mecole Hardman back to the

Heading into the season, the talk surrounding Jared Goff was whether he could earn a contract extension from the Detroit Lions.
