Jared Goff ranked below Caleb Williams, Jordan Love in QB standings

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has been ranked No. 16 among NFL quarterbacks heading into the 2026 season, placing behind Chicago Bears' Caleb Williams at No. 13 and Green Bay Packers' Jordan Love at No. 9. Goff's ranking reflects the Lions' struggles last season, finishing last in the NFC North despite his solid statistics, including six seasons with over 4,000 passing yards. Critics note Goff’s limitations under pressure and in adverse weather conditions. To improve his standing, Goff needs to elevate his performance in these areas, especially as the Lions aim for franchise milestones this season.
