Allen Park — Citing anonymous sources, a local television station reported Wednesday evening that the Detroit Lions have been in engaged in trade talks involving Matthew Stafford for weeks. But the team's general manager, Bob Quinn, quickly refuted the report, texting "100% false" when asked about the accuracy of the information.
WDIV news director Bernie Smilovitz first reported the information and Kelly Stafford, the quarterback's wife, appeared to later validate the rumblings on social media.
On her Instagram story, Kelly Stafford posted a screenshot of a opinion piece from the gambling website FanDuel, predicting three possible trade destinations for her husband, including the Los Angeles Chargers.
