Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions won … and lost their spot as the No. 1 pick in the 2022 NFL draft, for now.
Goff helped his former team, the Los Angeles Rams, by throwing 3 touchdown passes in a 30-12 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
The victory bumped Detroit to 2-11-1 while Jacksonville fell to 2-12 with its loss to Houston.

Goff was 21-of-26 for 216 yards in the stunner. Craig Reynolds rushed for 112 yards while Amon-Ra St. Brown caught 8 balls for 90 yards.
The cardinals, meanwhile, fell to 10-3, and have to await Tuesday’s Seattle Seahawks-Rams game to see how the NFC West shakes out after Week 15.
