Gill-Howard Challenges Onwuzurike for Starting Spot | Detroit Lions News
Description
Levi Onwuzurike’s future with the Lions hangs in the balance as training camp looms — sidelined by knee injuries since 2024, he’s facing stiff competition from sixth-round rookie Skyler Gill-Howard, a dynamic pass-rusher from Texas Tech who dominated college with five sacks and 51 tackles. With veterans Jay Tufele and Chris Smith likely as backups, Gill-Howard’s explosive play and relentless motor could shake up the depth chart — especially if he replicates his breakout 2024 season. For a Lions roster rebuilding after injury-plagued years, this could be Gill-Howard’s chance to prove he’s more than just a draft-day gamble.
