The quarterback led the Detroit Lions to two playoff wins for the first time since the team won the NFL title in 1957.

Goff led the franchise to its first postseason victory in 32 years, beating the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC wildcard game.

He also defeated Tampa Bay before falling to San Francisco in the NFC Championship Game.
