Detroit Lions draft themselves a gadget player in Jason Huntley

The Detroit Lions landed themselves a potential starter at running back in Georgia’s D’Andre Swift in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft on Friday. Combined with third-year back Kerryon Johnson, it doesn’t appear there will be many extra snaps to divvy up for anyone else in the backfield.

The Lions’ current depth chart at running back also includes Bo Scarbrough, Ty Johnson, Wes Hills, and Tra Carson. But with Detroit’s second pick in the fifth round, the running back room in the Motor City got even more crowded.
