Jared Goff played five years as a quarterback with the LA Rams, four of which were under Sean McVay. The Rams traded Goff to the Detroit Lions in 2021, and McVay's Los Angeles eventually went on to win the Super Bowl that season with Matthew Stafford leading the team's offense.

However, on Season 2 of "Quarterback," on Netflix, Goff spilled the beans on feeling betrayed by McVay and the Rams when they traded him.

"You feel like you've been betrayed or like you're not wanted," Goff said. "And I think for me, ultimately, it was the fact that there wasn't a conversation had, and that there wasn't like a, 'Hey, we're thinking about moving on' type of thing. There was nothing.

"You wish that it wasn’t such a blindside. And you wish that there was some sort of maturity, I guess, to have that conversation. To be able to let me know what was going on and how things went down, and why this is happening."

In McVay's first year as Rams coach in 2017, Goff led the team to an 11-4 record across 15 starts, helping them to the playoffs. The QB put on a good show in the postseason and guided the team to the Super Bowl, where the Rams lost to the New England Patriots.

LA also reached the postseason in the 2018 and 2020 seasons with Goff as its starting QB. However, in the Rams' first season following Goff's departure, they won the Super Bowl.

Goff has led the Lions to the playoffs in each of their past two seasons, winning two NFC North titles.

In the 2023 season, Goff guided Detroit to its first NFC championship game since the 1992 season. Last season, the Lions were eliminated from the playoffs in the wild-card round.

It will be interesting to see if Goff can lead the Lions to their third straight NFC North title next season and potentially guide the team to its first Super Bowl as well.
