Lions in talks to deal QB Matthew Stafford?
According to News 4 in Detroit, Matthew Stafford could be dealt very soon.
The report says that the Lions have been shopping the veteran quarterback for several weeks.
Stafford’s wife Kelly posted on her Instagram account saying if her husband were to be traded, one destination she would be interested in California.
With Philip Rivers leaving the Chargers, this makes sense. Los Angeles could be a new destination for the former Georgia gunslinger.
Stafford has played 11 seasons with the Lions, starting in 2009. He was the first overall pick in the NFL draft the same year. He has led the Lions to 69 wins, three playoff appearances and holds numerous NFL and franchise records including being the fastest to player to reach 40,000 passing yards.
