Lions Eye Reunion with Pro Bowl Guard Tomlinson
21 Aug
Summary
- Detroit Lions are evaluating veteran guards Laken Tomlinson and Will Hernandez.
- Tomlinson, a former Lions first-round pick, made a Pro Bowl with the 49ers.
- Hernandez, a second-round selection, has significant NFL starting experience.
The Detroit Lions are exploring options to strengthen their offensive line by bringing in veteran guards Laken Tomlinson and Will Hernandez for tryouts. Tomlinson, originally a first-round draft pick by the Lions in 2015, spent two seasons in Detroit before being traded. He later achieved Pro Bowl recognition in 2021 with the San Francisco 49ers and has accumulated extensive starting experience across multiple NFL teams.
Joining Tomlinson in the tryouts was Will Hernandez, whom the New York Giants selected in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Hernandez has also proven to be a reliable starter, logging numerous games for the Giants and the Arizona Cardinals. The Lions' interest in both players indicates a proactive approach to enhancing their offensive line unit.
