enerally when talk like this starts surfacing from people like Birkett then it’s being leaked by the team or the players agent in an effort to push the narrative.
Being how were without a GM right now I’d tend to think Matt’s agent is pushing this story. Meaning Matt probably wants out of DET. Which makes some sense since it appears Golladay does to.
If Stafford doesn’t play this Sunday, after his x-rays were negative, it’s a good indicator that this is the case.
If he’s just really sore, but nothing structurally is wrong, and he doesn’t play? I’ll take that as shutting it down in Detroit. At least for the season, until he sees what the new regime thinks.
Stafford is paid a lot of money to play. If you are just sore then you should be able to play. Not to question his desire to play but it makes you wonder? I know for a fact guys like Brett Favre and John Elway would play
