Jared Goff Cheered at Comerica Park During Detroit Tigers Game
In this story:
The relationships between the professional sports teams in town are very strong.
Quite often, professional athletes in town enjoy a nice evening out, watching the other local teams.
In recent weeks, members of the Detroit Lions have been in attendance to watch the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park.
Now would be the perfect time to attend since the team has been undefeated since the MLB All-Star break.
On Wednesday evening, Lions quarterback Jared Goff took in the action downtown, as the Tigers squared off with the Texas Rangers in the third game of their four-game series.
Tigers fans showered Goff with a loud ovation between innings, when he was introduced by the Comerica Park public address announcer.
Goff's ability to succeed in Detroit has been highly debated, as many believe he is simply a bridge quarterback. Others, meanwhile, are hoping he can have a career turnaround, after being traded by the Los Angeles Rams earlier this offseason.
The former No. 1 overall pick struggled mightily in 2020, resulting in a fallout with Rams head coach Sean McVay.
In Detroit, Goff will be looking to turn around his fortunes, similar to Detroit's pro sports teams -- all of whom are going through rebuilds and are full of players looking to make names for themselves.
For one evening, Goff was the center of attention, and he received a warm reception from fans.
