Jared Goff, former California Golden Bears quarterback and the 2016 No. 1 pick in the National Football League draft, has never been shy to show he’s a fan of Bay Area sports.
But ever since Goff was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams, the southern California media along with LA sports figures (see: Yasiel Puig, Los Angeles Dodgers) have tried to sway him toward Los Angeles fandom.
On Tuesday, Goff was asked about his Golden State Warriors allegiance. The quarterback responded:
Jared Goff: "I am a @Warriors fan but plan to have some duel fanship with the @Lakers as well."

Goff was asked about the Clippers and gave the diplomatic answer. He'll support them too. He plays the media game well.

According to his Twitter feed, Goff is playing close attention to the Golden State Warriors, who continue their quest for their second consecutive NBA title on Thursday when they take on the Cleveland Cavaliers.
He’s previously stated that Draymond Green is his favorite player.
.@Money23Green is my favorite player ever #GoDubs

Goff takes to Twitter frequently to show his affinity for all things Bay Area sports. During a San Francisco Giants game in 2015, Goff famously caught a baseball at AT&T Park that went into the bleachers for a ground rule double and celebrated appropriately.
