Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions were a terrible football team four years ago.
Christen Harper, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model and wife of the Detroit Lions quarterback may have been the catalyst for the franchise’s turnaround.
Harper took a nostalgic trip down memory lane following the Lions’ dominant 31-9 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. The Lions secured home-field advantage and a first-round bye.
The 31-year-old Harper reminisced about a defining moment in Jared Goff’ career with the Lions.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, Harper shared a video from a beach photoshoot for SI Swim where she could be seen reacting to Goff finally securing his first win as the Lions’ quarterback. That victory was against Minnesota.
The team was 0-10-1 at the time.
Jared Goff threw a walk-off touchdown pass to wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown on the game’s final play to secure a 29-27 victory.

Jared Goff Has Gone From Being An Afterthought To A Top Tier QB
With a supremely confident Jared Goff orchestrating the best offense in the league, the Lions have a chance to do something special.
The Los Angeles Rams gave up on Goff. The Detroit Lions believed in him, and look where they are in 2024 and early 2025.
With home-field advantage, the team can now work their way through Ford Field to possibly see themselves play In New Orleans.
