Lions: Jared Goff (COVID) highly unlikely for Week 16
Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is highly unlikely to play Week 16 versus the Atlanta Falcons, per head coach Dan Campbell.
What It Means:
Goff landed on the reserve list earlier this week and now Tim Boyle is expected to make his second start of the season. That is a downgrade for Amon-Ra St. Brown and the entire Lions offense, though it should lead to more volume for the backfield.
Boyle completed 15-of-23 pass attempts for 77 yards with no touchdowns and 2 interceptions in Week 11 versus the Cleveland Browns.
