2023 Fantasy Outlook
One of four QBs to see action for the Cardinals last season, mostly due to Kyler Murray's ACL tear in Week 14, Blough started Weeks 17 and 18, completing 38 of 58 passes for 402 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. The team retained him in the offseason while also signing Jeff Driskel and selecting Clayton Tune in the draft. If Murray isn't healthy Week 1, veteran Colt McCoy is the best bet to lead Arizona's offense, but Blough will be around if he's needed. Read Past Outlooks

Joins Detroit's taxi squad
Blough signed with the Lions' practice squad on Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Blough was let go by the Cardinals on Tuesday after losing out on a roster spot to Joshua Dobbs and Clayton Tune. He'll now operate on the Lions' practice squad and prepare for a promotion should Jared Goff or backup Teddy Bridgewater miss time.

Tough task in finale
Blough has had the opportunity to prepare as the starter throughout the practice week this week, but he has a daunting Week 18 challenge in the form of the 49ers defense, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Blough was called upon to start on very short notice ahead of Week 17, as Colt McCoy had been in line to helm the offense versus the Falcons until his concussion symptoms reemerged the Friday before the game. Blough handled himself reasonably well under the circumstances by throwing for 222 yards and a touchdown, albeit against one of the league's weaker defenses. The matchup is diametrically opposite Sunday for Blough's second start, however, as the 49ers are allowing the second-fewest total yards per game while also compiling 41 sacks and 16 interceptions through 17 contests.

2020
Blough is back in Detroit for another battle with Tim Boyle for second-string duties behind Jared Goff. With the Lions reportedly looking to keep just two quarterbacks on the active roster this season, Blough's preseason showing was enough for the team to roll with him instead of Boyle as the No. 2.
