Detroit Lions Film Breakdown: Quandre Diggs, the Lions’ versatile defensive weapon

Quandre Diggs is one of the most interesting players on the Detroit Lions roster. He was drafted by the Lions in the sixth round of the 2015 draft and was initially slotted in as a nickel corner. An injury crisis in Detroit’s defensive backfield led to him moving to safety in 2017 and the move rejuvenated his career.

The defensive back measures in at a small 5-foot-8, 200 pounds yet has still managed to make his name as one of the team’s hardest hitters. While he is still listed as a cornerback, he plays more as a run defending safety.
