Allen Park — The Lions defensive backs have a group text message chain.
Cornerbacks Darius Slay, Nevin Lawson and Quandre Diggs have a separate one because they just can’t stop talking to each other.
“The veteran guys, they hang with each other,” Slay said Thursday. “But me, Quandre and Nevo, we the ‘Three Amigos.’”
After years of inconsistency, the Lions could claim cornerback was a position of strength last season. Slay’s growth has been clear since 2014, but when injuries cleared the way for Lawson and Diggs to play more in the second half, the trio provided a glimpse of what could be a bright future.
