BREAKING NEWS: Detroit lions coach has been suspended for a season for placing a bet over…

The Lions don’t have an immediate need at quarterback in 2024, even after losing two backups.

The Lions have established Jared Goff as their unquestionable franchise quarterback, and with the selection of Hendon Hooker in the third round of last year’s draft, the immediate need at quarterback is relatively low. Despite the departures of Teddy Bridgewater, who retired, and David Blough, who joined Washington’s coaching staff, the urgency to address the quarterback position is not a top priority for the team.

While Goff is heading into a contract year, the potential impact of Hooker introduces an element of unpredictability to the quarterback situation. However, the beat writer suggests that, considering Hooker as the future QB2 and possibly more in the long run, a late-round selection seems to be the most likely move for the team in the upcoming draft.

It’s not ruled out that the Lions might explore options such as undrafted free agents or even consider a veteran quarterback in the offseason. Still, the writer finds it improbable for Brad Holmes, the team’s general manager, to invest consecutive draft picks in a position that doesn’t offer a clear starting opportunity, especially with the presence of Hooker as a significant investment for the future QB2 role.
