Jared Goff

Jared Goff has become a paragon of consistency. He's strung together four consecutive 4,000-yard seasons, averaging 4,551 passing yards and 32.5 TD passes per season over that span. Goff hasn't missed a game since 2021. But Goff has finished outside the top 12 in fantasy points per game (five starts minimum) in three of the last four years. He's a fine passer but offers next to nothing as a runner, with 195 rushing yards and two TD runs over the last four years. Goff's high-floor, low-ceiling profile makes him an unsexy target in fantasy drafts, but his high-floor makes him an ideal backup in 1QB leagues or QB2 in superflex leagues.

The Lions restructured QB Jared Goff’s contract.

Fantasy Impact

The move allows the Lions to get under the salary cap before Wednesday’s deadline. It lowers Goff’s 2026 salary cap hit from $55 million to just $15 million and adds a void year in 2030.
