Jared Thomas Goff[2] (born October 14, 1994) is an American professional football quarterback for the Detroit Lions of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the California Golden Bears, where he set Pac-12 Conference season records for passing yards and passing touchdowns, and was selected first overall by the Los Angeles Rams in the 2016 NFL draft. Goff had a breakout season in 2017 when he helped lead the Rams to their first playoff appearance since 2004. The following year, Goff led the Rams to Super Bowl LIII. He also received Pro Bowl honors in both seasons.

After suffering a decline in production and conflict with the Rams management, Goff was traded to the Lions in 2021. By his third year with the team, he led the Lions to their first playoff win since 1991, ending the longest playoff win drought in the NFL, en route to an NFC Championship Game appearance.
