The Detroit Lions are signing quarterback Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million contract extension that includes $170 million guaranteed, reports ESPN's Adam Schefter. Goff, a former No. 1 overall pick, is now the highest-paid player in franchise history.

The Lions and Goff agreed to a $212 million, four-year contract extension, according to a person familiar with the situation.

Goff ended the Motor City’s misery in January, helping the Lions earn two playoff victories in one postseason for the first time since winning the 1957 NFL title.in an NFC wild-card game, and to a victory over Tampa Bay before losing at San Francisco in the NFC championship game. The 29-year-old Goff, who was entering the final year of his deal, will be under contract in Detroit through the 2028 season.Goff didn't get down emotionally, even when the Lions won just three games in his debut year with them in 2021 and followed up the next season with a 1-6 start.Goff, who is from Novato, California, starred at California before the Rams drafted him No. 1 overall in 2016.

Goff threw 383 consecutive passes without an interception, a mistake-free run that trailed just two players in NFL history, before throwing a pick last September. He finished the 2023 regular season ranked No. 2 in yards passing and fourth with 30 touchdowns, including five that matched franchise and personal records in rout against Denver.
