Well he is the best QB the Lions have had in years....
"ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Matthew Stafford will become the highest-paid player in NFL history with a five-year deal he has agreed to with the Detroit Lions, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.
The deal, according to the source, will put him ahead of the five-year contract that pays $25 million annually that the Oakland Raiders signed quarterback Derek Carr to last month.
Stafford's deal also keeps the franchise's leader in almost every passing category with the team throughout the prime of his career with the Lions."
"The great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do."
