Ranking of Tim Boyle among NFL backups could’ve been worse
Tim Boyle is obviously not one of the best backups in the NFL, but the Lions’ No. 2 signal caller could have landed worse in a recent ranking of his backup brethren.

Amid a stretch where Jared Goff was awful early last season, the Detroit Lions surely would have benched him if they had a better option to go to.
