Ahead of the upcoming NFL Combine, Detroit Lions general manager, Bob Quinn sat down with the Lions in-house multi-media reporter Tori Petry and among other topics, discussed the trade rumors surrounding the organization’s franchise quarterback, Matthew Stafford.
Somehow, somewhere, someone speculated that the Lions were looking at trading away the best quarterback that has ever donned the Honolulu Blue and Silver, adding fuel to the fire in Mel Kiper Jr.’s latest mock draft with the Lions taking Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
Quinn has denied the rumors from the onset, and during his interview with Petry, he seemed to have put his final stamp on those rumors saying, “He’s here. He’s our quarterback. And all those rumors, not sure exactly where they came from, but like I said before, they’re 100% false.”
At the 1:36 mark of the video you can watch Quinn deny– for hopefully, the last time– the Stafford trade rumors.
