The Gritcast: Lions vs. Matthew Stafford is the best playoff storyline ever
Detroit caps the season off with a resounding win and will head to the playoffs against former Lion Matthew Stafford. Could this be the greatest postseason storyline ever? FOX 2’s Kellie Rowe says yes.
DETROIT (FOX 2) – Despite the anticipation, the Matthew Stafford Lions jersey exchange has been canceled at the request of the NFL.
“Glover Agency is prohibited from hosting the Lions Jersey Exchange at this time,” according to a news release from the Detroit real estate agency. “We hope to get back with a rescheduled date soon.”

Jeff Glover, owner of Glover Agency Realtors, wanted to give away 1,000 new Lions jerseys in exchange for a used Stafford jersey.
Glover’s goal was to show more support for the Lions and give Lions fans replica jerseys for current players – especially quarterback Jared Goff, as well and Hutchinson, and St. Brown – in exchange for fans’ old Stafford Lions jerseys. Glover’s plan was to donate the Stafford jerseys to a homeless shelter in LA – where Stafford is now the quarterback.
The jersey swap was scheduled for Friday from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at Twin Peaks, a sports bar in Livonia.
Since the event was promoted, Glover will still be giving fans who show up a $25 gift card to Twin Peaks, he said.
