Incoming Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford told the Detroit Lions that he was not interested in being traded to the New England Patriots, according to a source. The Lions have agreed to trade Stafford to the Rams.

Footballguys View: The rumblings were that Stafford wanted to play in warm weather…and that’s not going to happen in New England. He also just got through the Matt Patricia era in Detroit, so going to the Patriots (where Patricia returns as an assistant) does not make a ton of sense.
