Lions Shut Out of All-Rookie Team

Pro Football Writers of America revealed their All-Rookie Team for 2019

On Tuesday, the Pro Football Writers of America released their All-Rookie Team for the 2019 season.

To no surprise, no rookies on the Detroit Lions made the list.

Bob Quinn's 2019 draft class has potential going forward, but tight end T.J. Hockenson's season ended early due to injury. He had a memorable debut, but was unable to recreate the performance he had against the Cardinals on the road in the season opener. 

Here is the 2019 All-Rookie Team

QB - Kyler Murray (Cardinals)

RB- Josh Jacobs (Raiders), Miles Sanders (Eagles)

WR - A.J. Brown (Titans), Terry McLaurin (Redskins)

Guard - Elgton Jenkins (Packers), Dalton Risner (Broncos)

Offensive Tackle - Tytus Howard (Texans), Jawaan Taylor (Jaguars)

Defense

Safety - Darnell Savage (Packers), Juan Thornhill (Chiefs)
