As mentors go, Calvin Johnson is probably the best one second-year tight end Eric Ebron could have chosen in the Lions locker room.
Ebron, who’s expected to be a big part of the Lions’ offense in his second season, said that over the last year Johnson has become a “big brother” to him.
“Anyone who is young, like myself, I follow him step by step,” Ebron told detroitlions.com. “Everything that he does.”
Johnson has been very productive the last eight seasons and a little bit of that rubbing off on Ebron will do the Lions' offense a lot of good in 2015.
