Matthew Stafford Discusses Future with Lions: 'I'll Figure That Out'

The parted ways with head coach Matt Patricia last week, but the changes might not end there after their franchise quarterback was noncommittal about his future with the team.

"As far as my future goes past the season, I'll figure that out and talk about that later on," Stafford said, per Rod Beard of the Detroit News. "I've got a lot of work to be done. ... There's a lot to a lot to be done here for the rest of the season."

Stafford will hit free agency in 2023 at the end of the five-year, $135 million deal he signed in 2017, which made him the league's highest-paid player at the time.
