DETROIT -- For Jared Goff, this offseason has been different for a number of reasons.
For starters, the California native is now quarterback of the Detroit Lions after five seasons with the Los Angeles Rams.
Then, when he glanced around the Lions’ practice facility during OTAs, he noticed a uniqueness from the coaches on the sideline directing the action -- they are all former NFL players.
“It’s been interesting. I’ve had former players coach me in the past, but never this many,” Goff said. “It’s cool. It’s fun. A guy like [Antwaan] Randle El, he played at a high level for a long time and knows what he’s talking about and the same way for everyone else.
