The NFL announced on Wednesday morning that Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has been named NFC Offensive Player of the Week. The honor comes after Goff orchestrated a 14-play, 75-yard game winning drive for the Lions’ first win of the season. The drive was capped by a perfectly-placed 11-yard touchdown pass to rookie receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown.
On that drive alone, Goff went 9-of-14 for 80 yards and a touchdown. Two of those incompletions were spikes to stop the clock.
This is Goff’s fourth time being honored as NFC Offensive Player of the Week and this first time since Week 13 of the 2019 season with the Los Angeles Rams.
