The Facts: The Lions select Tennessee's Hooker with the 68th pick overall.
Diehards Line:
Hooker is recovering from a torn ACL, but his doctor recently informed teams that he is expected to be ready to go by the first week of the regular season. With Jared Goff in place as the starter in Detroit, there won’t be any need for Hooker to rush back for what will likely be a redshirt season if all goes according to plan in Detroit. Hooker joins running back Jahmyr Gibbs, linebacker Jack Campbell, tight end Sam LaPorta, and safety Brian Branch as new additions to the Lions roster through this point in the draft. They still have four more picks to come on the final day of the draft. ... Check our Draft Results page for complete pick-by-pick coverage.
