The 2nd round of the 2026 NFL draft seems like a likely place for the Lions to shop for an OG. Chase Bisontis appears to be a quality candidate who carries a low medical concern level. He could be just what the Lions need to solidify the interior OL for years to come.
Here is the excerpt of my medical report on Bisontis:
(Ages in parentheses are at start of 2026 season and are factored into the concern level. Injury info and ages based on available public information are unverified and subject to update. Games played data courtesy of sports-reference.com.)
Projected round 2. #49 on Daniel Jeremiah board Jan 27.
Concern level 1/10
Bisontis is young and healthy. His injury in 2024 could be a mild high ankle sprain based on circumstantial evidence - rolled up on with subsequent boot frequently is a high ankle. A foot injury would be more concerning but that’s much less likely. A possible ankle would be of minimal concern since he played a full season afterwards.
Picking up a low-risk, instant-starter in the 2nd round would be fantastic.
