Childhood friends Matthew Stafford and Clayton Kershaw are now playing for the same city

Kershaw and Stafford, long time friends, will now be reunited again in LA.

On Saturday night, Matthew Stafford was traded in a blockbuster deal to the LA Rams and Jared Goff went to the Detroit Lions.

This trade means that Stafford is heading to Los Angeles where his childhood friend Clayton Kershaw plays for the LA Dodgers. He and Kershaw grew up playing sports together; baseball, soccer, and basketball as kids, and played football together at Highland Park High School, Kershaw was Stafford’s center.

But they did go different ways after high school. Kershaw was drafted by the Dodgers in 2006, and Stafford was picked up by the Lions in 2009.

They're back together and playing for the same city!
