Lions’ Jared Goff Had Perfect Answer to Question About Fox’s Skip Bayless

In this story:
Skip Bayless, the host of the Fox Sports show Undisputed, is well known for his controversial sports takes. Like many other athletes, Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff doesn’t want to hear anything he has to say.
Ahead of Saturday’s NFC championship game against the San Francisco 49ers, Bayless expressed basically zero confidence in the Lions.
“Congrats, Lions. You have won the right to get blown out at San Francisco. But hey, great year,” Bayless posted to social media on Sunday.
Goff was about to be asked about this comment by 97.1 The Ticket’s host Doug Karsch, but the quarterback shut them down before they could ask.
“Nah, I don’t care about anything [Bayless] says,” Goff said. “You can stop now. Anything those guys say on daytime TV, you can skip over that.”
Goff clearly isn’t letting the haters get to him ahead of one of the biggest games of his career.
The NFC championship kicks off at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday.
