As the Lions begin to build for next season, we look at why Kenny Golladay could be the key to the Lions 2021 season. It may surprise you exactly his importance to this regime and our sanity as die hard Lions fans. Let’s begin here…
Why Kenny Golladay Could Be The Key To The Lions 2021 Season
The Detroit Lions took a step back from last year’s 6-10 season, and the stiff competition they face in the NFC North isn’t letting up. The Chicago Bears fell off while the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers improved. Detroit’s expectations were low to start because of this, and the team still underperformed. Matthew Stafford faced long odds to win NFL MVP in 2019, but his season was derailed by health issues. The signal caller suffered a back injury in Week 9, and his lengthy recovery led to him being ruled out for the year in December. Since entering the NFL in 2009, Stafford has often been among the league leaders in passing yards, and broke Matt Ryan’s record to become the fastest quarterback to reach 40,000 career passing yards in October. He threw for 2,499 yards and 19 touchdowns in eight games and found plenty of success through the air with his go-to wideout, Kenny Golladay.
A Vote Of Confidence For Bob Quinn Drafting Capabilities…
Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay was named to the NFL Pro Bowl roster on Tuesday, becoming the first NIU alumus to reach the Pro Bowl since 2011.
Golladay, added to the roster to replace an injured Chris Godwin of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, led the NFL with a career high of 11 touchdown catches to go with 1,190 yards.
The 2017 NIU graduate Golladay had touchdown catches in nine different games with five touchdown catches coming in the fourth quarter.
Golladay is the first former Huskies player to reach the Pro Bowl since running back Michael Turner earned the honor in 2011. Golladay will also be the first Lions wide receiver to make the Pro Bowl since Calvin Johnson in 2015.
With the emergence of Kenny Golladay as a legitimate threat for opposing defenses, it would seem he, along with Marvin Jones forces Bob quinn, Matt Patricia, and the Lions owners to draft and use Free Agency to primarily solidify the Lions defense.
He indescreetly could be the saviour to the idea that “the Patrioit way” does work outside of the state of Massachuettes because there’s no need to use high draft capital on a talented wide receiver such as Jerry Jeudy or we as Lions fans will be here in the same position in 3 to 5 years!
It’s all kind of riding on Kenny Golladay’s prescence being strong enough of a deterrent to the organization from doing something utterly self hindering…yet again!
Please tell us if we’re over-valuing Gollady importance…
