Report: DE Tank Carradine, former 2nd round pick, visiting with Detroit Lions

While the Detroit Lions rank towards the top of the league in overall sacks (third), they have failed to generate consistent pressure both from the edges and the interior of the line. With the team on its bye week currently, they may be looking to upgrade that front seven to find some pass rushers available across the league.

That could be why, according to Ian Rapoport, the Lions are hosting former second-round pick Tank Carradine for a visit on Wednesday:

Carradine was a polarizing prospect in the draft. He had all the physical tools to be an outstanding edge player, but he didn’t have a ton of playing experience, and his college career ended with a torn ACL.
