Report: Lions Visit With EDGE Jermaine Johnson
The Detroit Lions have met with Florida State edge rusher Jermaine Johnson for an official pre-draft visit.
According to a report from Jordan Schulz, Johnson met with the Lions on Monday.
At the Senior Bowl, the talented defensive lineman impressed many with his sheer strength and pass-rush ability.
Many who were on hand felt Johnson was the best prospect down in Mobile, Alabama.
“It was awesome,” Johnson told reporters “I went there because I wanted to prove I could do what I do against anybody. And in this case, the best of the best. I think I did that, and other people think I did as well. Just controlling what I can control -- how I play, my effort, the plays I make, how badly I beat people -- those are the things I can control. I tried to control that as best as I could. But as far as narratives, projections and all that other stuff, I can’t control that. I can control how I work.”
Aidan Hutchinson visit
According to Albert Breer of The MMQB, Michigan defensive end Aidan Hutchinson will visit with the New York Giants on Wednesday of this week, followed by a visit with New York Jets on Friday.
The talented defensive end has already visited the Jacksonville Jaguars, and is reportedly planning to visit the Detroit Lions next week.
