Meet the immovable man: NT Alim McNeill

On Tuesday, we continued our “Meet the Detroit Lions Draft Class” series live on Twitch. Having already profiled Penei Sewell with Oregon writer Tyson Alger and Levi Onwuzurike with Lars Hanson, it’s time to move onto the Lions’ (first) third-round pick: nose tackle Alim McNeill.

Jonas Pope, the NC State beat writer for The News & Observer and the Durham Herald-Sun, chatted with us for 30 minutes on Tuesday about all things Alim McNeill. Pope gave us his favorite stories from the beat during McNeill’s three years as a Wolfpack.
