Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is ready to move on from the narrative that surfaces every time he faces his former team. 

Speaking to reporters ahead of Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams, Goff faced a series of questions about facing the team that traded him for Matthew Stafford years after drafting him first overall in the 2016 NFL Draft.

"It feels like a long time ago and, I think we kind of talked about it earlier in the year of how it's kind of my career now [I’ve] spent more time here. It certainly feels like a long time ago," he said Wednesday, before being asked separately if he still feels an "emotional charge."

"No, not so much anymore," he responded. "And really, we played them in that playoff game, and it was such a big deal and the next year we played them again, and that felt like even less, and so now it's even further removed."

But Goff was asked a third time about the history of the matchup. This time, he interjected. 

"We’re still talking about it — all right, go ahead," he said before letting the reporter finish his question.
