Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has officially secured his future with the team, signing a four-year, $212 million contract extension. The deal includes $170 million guaranteed and solidifies Goff as the franchise quarterback through at least the 2027 NFL season, with an option for 2028.
Goff’s contract extension is a testament to his outstanding performance since arriving in Detroit via trade from the Los Angeles Rams in 2021. Initially seen as a bridge quarterback, Goff has silenced critics by leading the Lions to multiple playoff appearances and earning Pro Bowl selections. Under head coach Dan Campbell, he has thrived in offensive coordinator Ben Johnson’s system, delivering precise throws, efficient decision-making, and veteran leadership.
Lions General Manager Brad Holmes expressed confidence in Goff as the team’s long-term solution at quarterback, stating:
“Jared has been everything we hoped for and more. He’s a leader, a competitor, and someone who represents what it means to be a Detroit Lion. This extension ensures we remain competitive for years to come.”
Since arriving in Detroit, Goff has transformed the team into a legitimate Super Bowl contender. His 2023 season was a turning point, where he threw for over 4,500 yards with 30 touchdowns and led the Lions to an NFC Championship Game appearance—their first since 1991.
With Goff locked in, Detroit can now focus on strengthening the roster around him. The extension provides clarity heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, where the Lions can invest in key areas like defense, offensive line depth, and playmakers.
With Goff at the helm, the Lions are poised to continue their rise as an NFC powerhouse—and fans in Detroit couldn’t be more excited.
