The Detroit Lions’ defensive line is getting some reinforcements.
The Lions used the No. 28 overall pick in the first round of Thursday night’s NFL Draft to add defensive tackle Tyleik Williams.
A two-year starter for the Buckeyes, Williams (6-3, 334) played mostly in the three-technique for the Buckeyes’ defense and was an elite run defender and disruptor. The last two seasons he combined for 100 tackles, 18.0 tackles for loss and 5.5 sacks. That’s terrific production from a three-technique interior defender.
