The NFL had made a call on a Jared Goff play in the Detroit Lions vs. Washington Commanders game, and it's good for Goff.

Goff signed a four-year, $212 million contract extension in November 2024, three years after his trade from the Rams. The Lions cannot cut Goff at a financial gain until 2026, per Over The Cap. A post-June 1 designation then would save $35 million with $34.6 million in dead money.

Goff finished the season with 37 touchdowns and 4,629 yards, completing 72.4% of pass attempts. He's No. 2 in the NFL in passing yards and No. 4 in passing touchdowns while having the No. 6 QBR in the league (68.4).

After an impressive 2024 campaign, four Detroit Lions are up for major awards. Included in that four is quarterback Jared Goff, who is a finalist for the Most Valuable Player award.

Goff’s 4,629 yards were second only to Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (4,918). Burrow is also a finalist for the award, along with Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Eagles running back Saquon Barkley and Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.
