Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff missed last week's loss to the Atlanta Falcons while on the reserve/COVID-19 list. He was activated earlier this week but is now looking unlikely to suit up in Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks due to a knee injury.
#Lions coach Dan Campbell tells reporters that QB Jared Goff, dealing with a knee injury, is doubtful to play Sunday. Looks like Tim Boyle again.

In 13 games in his first season in Detroit, Goff has completed 67% of his passes for 3,007 yards, 17 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Tim Boyle is expected to start in Goff's place against Seattle.
Boyle has appeared in three games this season and made two starts. He has gone 39-for-57 for 264 passing yards, one touchdown and three interceptions.
Both the Lions and Seahawks have been eliminated from playoff contention.
