Associated Press  

HOUSTON — Jared Goff is aware that many around the NFL are high on the Detroit Lions as they bring a six-game winning streak into Sunday’s prime-time matchup with the Houston Texans. His return would certainly help take some of the pressure off Stroud after he relied almost entirely on Tank Dell last week in the first game since Stefon Diggs’ season-ending knee injury. “So, he’s a guy that they’ll certainly be planning for and will help us in a ton of ways, not just catching the ball but with blocking and all the other stuff that he can do.” Never that player The Lions acquired defensive end Ze’Darius Smith in a trade with the Cleveland Browns this week to help make up for the loss of star Aidan Hutchinson who’s out for the season. “I’m sure you want to know if I was ever a team’s ‘one player away,’ and the answer is absolutely not,” the former tight end said.
