  • Sticking with Detroit

    The Lions re-signed Boyle to a one-year, $2 million contract Monday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Boyle's contract includes $1.75 million in guaranteed money, with another $500,000 in incentives. The 27-year-old signal-caller started three games for the Lions last season, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns in each contest and only exceeding 200 passing yards once. However, Detroit appears satisfied enough with Boyle's ability to helm the offense under emergency circumstances, and he's now positioned to reprise a familiar role as the No. 2 option behind Jared Goff unless further…read more

  • Starts three games in 2021

    Boyle completed 61 of 94 passes for 526 yards with three touchdowns and six interceptions over five game appearances in 2021. He added 13 rushing yards on two carries.

    Analysis: On the surface, Boyle was beyond underwhelming as a fill-in starter during the three games that Jared Goff missed this season. The Eastern Kentucky product threw more picks than touchdowns in each appearance while clearing 200 yards once and averaging 5.6 yards per pass attempt, which would have ranked last among starting QBs if Boyle had attempted enough passes to make the leaderboard. However, Goff only ranked 27th in that category with a 6.6 YPA, and offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn…read more

  • Likely headed back to bench

    Coach Dan Campbell considers Jared Goff (knee) "probable" to return for Week 18 and replace Boyle as the starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Packers, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

    Analysis: Boyle started the past two games, with Goff first on the reserve/COVID-19 list and then out with a knee injury. With Goff now listed as questionable but expected to play, Boyle figures to return to his backup role for the season finale.

  • Could get third straight start

    Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Tuesday that he's proceeding as though Boyle will be the team's starting quarterback for Sunday's season finale versus the Packers, but Jared Goff (knee) could reclaim the job if he demonstrates progress in practice this week, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.

    Analysis: Boyle made his second and third starts of the season in losses to the Falcons and Seahawks in Weeks 16 and 17, respectively, after Goff missed both games, first due to a positive COVID-19 test and then due to a strained knee. Since Goff wasn't able to practice in any fashion last week on account of the injury, he may need to upgrade to full activity by Friday for the Lions to feel confident enough with his health to reinsert him into the lineup for a largely meaningless Week 18 game. If not,…read more

  • Pads stats in garbage time

    Boyle completed 22 of 37 passes for 262 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions during Sunday's 51-29 loss to Seattle. He added 14 rushing yards on one attempt.

    Analysis: Boyle didn't do much until Detroit was down 38-7 minutes into the third quarter, which the Eastern Kentucky product had opened with an interception on the first offensive play. While Boyle subsequently was able to pad his stats with a couple of touchdowns to Amon-Ra St. Brown and offensive tackle Taylor Decker, the Lions were never really in the game thanks to a terrible defensive showing that admittedly would be hard for any quarterback to overcome. That Detroit never turned to David Blough at…read more

  • Getting another spot start

    Boyle will start in place of Jared Goff (knee) on Sunday at Seattle, Chris Burke of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: As expected, the Lions included Goff on their Week 17 inactive list, thus giving Boyle another chance to direct the offense. In his first opportunity last Sunday in Atlanta, Boyle completed 24 of 34 passes for 187 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

  • Headed for second straight start

    Boyle is expected to receive his second straight start Sunday against the Seahawks after head coach Dan Campbell acknowledged that Jared Goff (knee) is doubtful to be available to play, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.

    Analysis: While Goff was on the reserve/COVID-19 list last week after testing positive for the virus, Boyle picked up his second start of the season and of his career. Boyle fared far better last week in the Lions' 20-16 loss to Atlanta than he did in his Detroit debut Week 11 in Cleveland, completing 24 of his first 33 attempts for 187 yards and a touchdown before throwing a game-ending interception at the goal line in the final minute. Though Goff was restored from the list Monday and was expected to…read more

  • Returning to No. 2 role

    Boyle will reprise his normal duties as the Lions' backup quarterback Week 17 in Seattle after head coach Dan Campbell confirmed Monday that Jared Goff (illness) is due back from the reserve/COVID-19 list after clearing the NFL's return-to-play protocols, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

    Analysis: Detroit has yet to officially add Goff back to the 53-man roster, but that transaction is merely a formality now that the signal-caller has been cleared to report back to the Lions' team facility. While Goff was unable to practice this past week before he was deactivated in advance of Sunday's game against the Falcons, Boyle stepped in for his second start of the season. After a wretched showing in his Lions debut Week 11 in Cleveland, Boyle was far more competent in directing the offense in…read more

  • Late pick kills comeback attempt

    Boyle completed 24 of 34 passes for 187 yards with one touchdown and one interception during Sunday's 20-16 loss to Atlanta.

    Analysis: Boyle performed much better than he did in his first career start Week 11 against Cleveland despite playing without both T.J. Hockenson (finger) and D'Andre Swift (shoulder). However, that's not saying much, and the game ended on a sour note after Boyle blew Detroit's comeback attempt by throwing a pick near Atlanta's goal line in the closing minutes of regulation. While it's not clear if Jared Goff (COVID-19) will gain medical clearance in the coming week, Boyle will remain far off the fantasy…read more

  • Officially starting Sunday

    Boyle will start at quarterback in place of Jared Goff (illness) on Sunday in Atlanta, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    Analysis: Goff was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list last Monday and was unable to clear league protocols in time to suit up Week 16. His absence will give Boyle his second NFL start. The first one didn't exactly go swimmingly back in Week 11, when he was 15-for-23 passing for 77 yards and two interceptions in a 13-10 loss at Cleveland. At the very least, Boyle has capable running backs in the stable, with Jamaal Williams and Craig Reynolds on hand to ease the burden (D'Andre Swift again is out with an…read more

  • On track for Week 16 start

    Boyle is in line to start Sunday's game against the Falcons after Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Friday that Jared Goff (illness) is "highly unlikely" to be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to the contest, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Analysis: Goff has continued to test positive for COVID-19 since initially contracting the virus Monday, and the Lions aren't confident that he'll either test negative on two consecutive occasions 24 hours apart or show diminished symptoms, which he'll need to do in order to clear the NFL's return-to-play protocol. Boyle has taken first-team reps in practice all week sans Goff and is primed to make his second start in six weeks, after the latter was previously sidelined with an oblique injury Week 11.…read more

  • May not start if Goff sits

    Lions head coach Dan Campbell wouldn't commit to Boyle being the team's starting quarterback if Jared Goff (reserve/COVID-19 list) isn't available this Sunday in Atlanta, perhaps suggesting David Blough could be an option as well, Chris Burke of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Goff was placed on the list Monday and still has a chance to return in time for Sunday's game if he's asymptomatic of the virus. If not, the Lions will turn to Boyle or Blough, likely waiting until later in the week to name a starter. Boyle was brutal in his one start this year, throwing for 77 yards with two interceptions in a 13-10 loss to the Browns in Week 11.

  • Headed for No. 2 role Week 12

    Boyle is active as the backup quarterback for Thursday's contest against the Bears behind starter Jared Goff (oblique), who is set to start in his return from a one-game absence, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

    Analysis: Though Goff was one of the NFL's least productive starting quarterbacks through the first 10 weeks of the season, he still performed far better than Boyle, who returned from injured reserve last week and picked up his first NFL start while Goff was sidelined with the oblique injury. In Detroit's 13-10 loss to the Browns, Boyle completed 15 of 23 attempts for 77 yards (3.3 YPA), no touchdowns and two interceptions, with most of the Lions' offensive production on the day coming via the ground…read more

  • Struggles against Browns

    Boyle completed 15 of 23 passes for 77 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: Boyle made his first career NFL start after entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 2018. He had attempted only four passes prior to Sunday's game, but he was called upon with Jared Goff (oblique) sidelined. Boyle wasn't asked to do much, as he took to the air only 23 times. He threw two interceptions, one of which came deep in Browns territory. The positive news is that he peppered T.J. Hockenson with eight targets and D'Andre Swift with four, so the stars of the team still saw…read more

  • Could get two-game run as starter

    Boyle (thumb), who is making his first career NFL start Sunday in Cleveland, could remain under center for the Lions' Thanksgiving Day game against the Bears with top quarterback Jared Goff (oblique) uncertain to be available, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Goff is inactive after failing to practice in any capacity this week, allowing Boyle to take all the first-team reps in workouts Wednesday though Friday in preparation for the starting assignment. Not only will Boyle be making his first career start Sunday, but he'll also be making his Lions debut, as he had been on injured reserve since early September following thumb surgery before he was activated Friday. Though Boyle impressed enough in training camp to secure the No. 2 job behind Goff, he…read more

  • Set for first career start

    Boyle is on track to start Sunday's game against the Browns, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Schefter's report confirms something that's become increasingly apparent throughout the week, as top quarterback Jared Goff didn't wind up practicing Wednesday through Friday after hurting his oblique last week against the Steelers and is listed as doubtful for Sunday's contest. Boyle was reinstated from injured reserve just one day ago after being sidelined all season following August thumb surgery, but he took all the first-team reps in practice this week and should be healthy heading into…read more

  • Activated ahead of likely start

    The Lions reinstated Boyle (thumb) from injured reserve Friday.

    Analysis: The transaction officially restores Boyle to the active roster, while clearing the way for him to make his first career NFL start Sunday against the Browns with Jared Goff (oblique) listed as doubtful for the contest and not expected to be available. Through four pro seasons, Boyle has just four regular-season pass attempts to his name, and his inexperience, poor pass-catching personnel and matchup with a fearsome Cleveland pass rush all conspire to make him an untrustworthy fantasy option.…read more

  • On track for first NFL start

    The Lions are expected to activate Boyle (thumb) from injured reserve and have him start at quarterback in place of Jared Goff (oblique) in Sunday's game against the Browns, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Detroit has yet to officially rule Goff out for the game, but he looks to be trending toward his first absence of the season after he was listed as a non-participant in each of the team's three practices this week. Boyle, meanwhile, is working his way back from Aug. 30 thumb surgery, but he's been practicing for the past week and a half and took all the first-team reps Wednesday through Friday. Though he's in his fourth year in the professional ranks, Boyle has yet to make a regular-season…read more

  • Will be No. 2 QB when activated

    Coach Dan Campbell said Tuesday that Boyle (thumb) will be the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart when he is activated from injured reserve, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Analysis: Boyle underwent thumb surgery Aug. 30 and has been on injured reserve since the start of the regular season. He was designated to return ahead of Week 10, but he remained inactive, as David Blough operated as the backup to Jared Goff. However, Campbell's comments made it clear that the backup gig is Boyle's when he is officially added to the active roster, which could prove meaningful as Goff is currently battling an oblique injury.

  • Cleared to practice

    Boyle (thumb) will be designated to return from injured reserve by the Lions on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Boyle has been on injured reserve since the start of the regular season after he underwent thumb surgery Aug. 30. He'll have to be activated within 21 days to be eligible to return this season, but he could serve as Detroit's primary backup at quarterback once he's cleared to return to game action.

  • Resumes throwing

    Boyle (thumb) recently attempted a few "very light throws" without a brace on his injured hand, Chris Burke of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Kory Woods of WoodwardSports.com relays that Boyle ditched a hard cast for a soft one by late September, suggesting the reserve quarterback is progressing well from late-August thumb surgery. Boyle could be cleared to rejoin the Lions for practice soon.

  • Shifts to injured reserve

    The Lions placed Boyle (thumb) on injured reserve Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Boyle is expected to miss up to eight weeks due to thumb surgery he underwent in late August, so it's no surprise to see him beginning the regular season on IR. Though the depth quarterback will be eligible to return as early as Week 4, it appears as though he's destined for a somewhat longer absence.

  • Out 6-8 weeks after surgery

    Boyle (thumb) is expected to miss six to eight weeks following thumb surgery, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: This appears to be a good outcome, as it was feared Boyle might have to miss the entire season. David Blough will be the primary backup to Jared Goff to open the season, but Boyle should be given a shot to compete for the role when he returns.

    Boyle needs thumb surgery, and the Lions won't have a timetable for his return until after the procedure, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

  • Thumb injury may be severe

    Boyle may have suffered a serious thumb injury during Friday's preseason loss to the Colts, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports. "We'll know a lot more tomorrow, but we may have to prepare for him to be out for a little bit," coach Dan Campbell said.

    Analysis: The Lions brought in Boyle from Green Bay to serve as Jared Goff's backup on a one-year $2.5 million contract. But his time under center during exhibition season has been anything but crisp, combining for 22-for-29 passing (56.4 percent), 135 yards and one touchdown versus no interceptions across three games. During the course of Friday's appearance, he banged his right thumb on a helmet on the third play from scrimmage, opening a cut in the process. If he indeed needs time to recover, Boyle…read more

    Boyle completed seven of 15 passes for 44 yards during Saturday's preseason loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: After racking up stats during the 2019 preseason with the Packers, Boyle has completed just 50 percent of his passes with no passing touchdowns and a lowly mark of 2.7 yards per pass attempt this preseason. While the in-game struggles have prompted some to think David Blough could be making a push for the backup job behind Jared Goff, Boyle did have to go up against most of Pittsburgh's starting defense Saturday, and his struggles are understandable against a unit that finished third in total…read more

  • Favorite for backup QB role

    Boyle is the odds-on favorite to earn the backup quarterback job behind Jared Goff, Benjamin Raven of MLive.com reports.

    Analysis: With Chase Daniel no longer on the roster, Boyle and David Blough are the top depth options for Detroit at quarterback. Since Boyle is being paid like a top-10 backup quarterback while Blough is making near the league minimum, it's no surprise that Boyle is considered the favorite for the No. 2 role, especially after the former Green Bay signal-caller drew consistently positive reviews throughout spring workouts.

  • Inks deal with Detroit

    The Lions signed Boyle to a one-year, $2.5 million contract Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old wasn't tendered a contract by the Packers as a restricted free agent, but he'll remain in the NFC North for 2021. Boyle has attempted only four passes since going undrafted out of Eastern Kentucky in 2018. He could serve as Jared Goff's top backup in the likely event that Detroit releases Chase Daniel later in the offseason.

  • Won't be tendered

    The Packers will not tender Boyle, instead allowing him to hit free agency, Nick Shook of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: Boyle is currently a restricted free agent, so Green Bay's decision to let him hit the open market can be interpreted as a sign of the team's confidence in 2020 first-round pick Jordan Love. Unless the Packers bring in another option under center, Love will now be the lone backup to Aaron Rodgers, while Boyle will look to secure a reserve role elsewhere.

  • No pass attempts in 20202

    Boyle appeared in eight games in 2020 but didn't attempt a pass. He officially recorded 13 carries for minus-nine yards.

    Analysis: Boyle spent the entire season as the backup behind Aaron Rodgers, but he was primarily a "human victory cigar," either handing the ball off or taking a knee on all but one of the plays he took the field. He spent the last two seasons in Green Bay, and he could hang onto a roster spot while 2020 first-round pick Jordan Love continues his development. However, the Packers will no doubt be hoping Love secures the backup role in his second season, and it remains to be seen if the team will carry…read more

  • Starting season as backup

    Boyle is listed as the No. 2 quarterback on Green Bay's first unofficial depth chart of the season, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Boyle kept ahead of rookie first-round pick Jordan Love throughout training camp, setting him up to reprise his role as Aaron Rodgers' backup to open a second straight season. The Packers no doubt intend to boost Love up the depth chart in the future as he continues his development, for the time being Boyle will handle the No. 2 role during Sunday's season opener in Minnesota.

  • Throws first NFL passes in 2019

    Boyle played in three games in 2019, completing three of four passes for 15 yards.

    Analysis: The Packers like what they saw out of the 25-year-old signal caller during training camp enough that they cut former second-round pick Deshone Kizer to make Boyle the backup to Aaron Rodgers. Boyle took a few knees in blowout games and threw his first NFL passes in a blowout loss to the 49ers in Week 12, but he otherwise stayed on the sidelines while Rodgers stayed healthy. Boyle has another year under contract with the Packers, but there's no guarantee that they keep him around in 2020,…read more

  • Completes first career passes

    Boyle played the final drive of Sunday's loss to the 49ers and completed three of four passes for 15 yards.

    Analysis: Boyle saw action a few weeks ago and was limited to kneel-downs in a blowout victory, but he got a chance to throw the ball Sunday with the Packers in the opposite position and completed the first passes of his NFL career. Boyle remains the only other quarterback on the Packers' roster besides starter Aaron Rodgers.
