Notes: Jared Goff named 15th-most valuable player of 2022 NFL season

What a turnaround 2022 was for Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff. He entered the season with many wondering if this would be his last in the NFL as a starter. After a couple rough seasons with the Rams and a slow start to his first season in Detroit, 2022 was undoubtedly going to be a pivotal year in his career.

Goff responded with one of the best seasons of his career. His 99.3 passer rating trailed only his two Pro Bowl seasons, as did his 7.6 yards per pass attempt. And his 61.1 QBR was just barely behind his best mark, which he accomplished in 2018—the year he took the Rams to the Super Bowl.
