Teez Tabor takes first-team reps at cornerback, picks off Matthew Stafford

For being a second-round draft pick from just one year ago, Detroit Lions cornerback Teez Tabor isn’t entering 2018 with a lot of expectations. Last year as a rookie corner, Tabor barely got any playing time at all, and when he did, he was fairly unremarkable.

That’s not all that surprising, considering the learning curve for an NFL corner and given how stacked the Lions appeared to be at cornerback. However, going into 2018, there is still a lot of doubt in Tabor’s future with the team. The Lions added DeShawn Shead in free agency and re-signed Nevin Lawson to a two-year, $9.
