Katie Austin Traveled to Detroit to support Christen Harper’s husband Jared Goff’s Lions
Last year in Jan. 2024, Katie Austin traveled to Detroit to see unfold a history in the franchise, thanks to quarterback Jared Goff. After 32 years, Detroit registered a victory in the playoffs, as they defeated the LA Chargers in a thrilling 24-23 wild-card contest. Goff finished the game, throwing for 277 yards, while completing 22 of 27 passes, including one touchdown.
For that game, Christen Harper’s friend Katie Austin made a 36-hour trip to land in Detroit and see the Lions advance to the divisional round of the playoffs. Austin posted moments from the game, including posing with her partner, Lance Armstrong and showing strong support for the Lions.
“Football HISTORY!!! Quick 36-hour trip to Detroit to support @christenharper @jaredgoff get the first playoff win for the Lions in 32 years – WERE SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!🫶” she wrote in the caption.
