Jared Goff Doubtful, Tim Boyle Likely To Start Against Browns
3 years agoThe Detroit Lions listed quarterback Jared Goff (oblique) as doubtful to play in Week 11 against the Cleveland Browns. Goff was throwing the ball around in practice on Friday, but he missed the other two days this week and wasn't ready to play this weekend after straining his oblique in the Week 10 tie with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tim Boyle (thumb) will be activated from Injured Reserve to make the start as the team looks for their first win of the season. David Blough will likely be his backup. The 27-year-old Goff could find it difficult to return for a Week 12 Thanksgiving game against the Chicago Bears next Thursday, too. With Boyle likely at the helm, Detroit's offensive weapons should be downgraded slightly in fantasy. He's strictly a desperation QB2 streamer in superflex leagues.
