The Lions secured a historic victory against the Vikings last Sunday, clinching the NFC North title for the first time in franchise history and earning their first playoff berth since 2016.
Kelly Stafford, the wife of Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, expressed her joy for the Lions on Instagram this Tuesday afternoon. Stafford, who spent the initial 12 years of his NFL career with the Lions, amassing 45,109 yards and 282 touchdowns, remains a beloved figure in Detroit.

“I am so happy about this,” wrote Kelly Stafford. “A fan unless we are playing them. LFG.”
This post by Stafford might take on added significance in two weeks.
Interestingly, there’s a realistic possibility that the Lions and Rams could face each other in the opening round of the NFC playoffs. In such a scenario, Stafford would naturally support her husband’s current team. For now, Stafford is celebrating the Lions’ achievement, showcasing her support for a franchise that has long awaited success in the NFC North.
Given the substantial time Kelly and Matt spent in Detroit, their happiness for the city and its fans is entirely understandable.
