3 years agoDetroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff (oblique) is trending in the right direction towards starting in the Lions annual Thanksgiving game on Thursday. Goff sat out in Week 11 against the Cleveland Browns, and the Lions went extremely run-heavy with D'Andre Swift. Although Goff hasn't been impressive this season, he is still an upgrade over Tim Boyle at quarterback. Tight end T.J. Hockenson will get a slight boost with Goff under center, and he will be the only pass-catcher in the Detroit offense that has any real fantasy appeal. If Goff is to be held out of action again, Swift could receive an uptick in value, as he would likely see another heavy workload against a banged-up Chicago Bears defensive unit. Hockenson would remain a strong TE1, as he proved to be Boyle's favorite target last week. Goff has been limited in both practices this week.--Tommy Adamopoulos - RotoBaller
