When Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff first spoke with his new head coach Dan Campbell and general manager Brad Holmes, he called their demeanor a “breath of fresh air” and even went as far as saying “this is where I’m supposed to be.”
Of course, what else is a recently-traded player supposed to say? Being shipped can be a tough experience for a player who was at the top of the league just a couple years ago. Anything less than a complete buy in at the very beginning would be a bad look for a 26-year-old quarterback.
