Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports Matthew Stafford and the Detroit Lions have mutually agreed to part ways this offseason. (Tom Pelissero on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Detroit is basically saying they’re going to trade their franchise quarterback this offseason, as it doesn’t make sense to keep the veteran around for their rebuild. Stafford certainly makes sense for any QB-needy team looking to get over the hump. The Lions own the seventh overall draft pick and could use it to select Stafford’s successor.
