Josh Paschal has big goals for his rookie season with the Detroit Lions, and they go beyond what he and his new running mate, first-round pick Aidan Hutchinson, can do on the field.
"I’m a guy that can change locker rooms," Paschal, the Lions' second-round pick, No. 46 overall, said Friday in a video conference with Detroit reporters. "That’s my goal is to come in, learn from the guys, the veterans there, but also step into a leadership role."
A first-team All-SEC selection as a defensive lineman, Paschal was hailed for his character, personality and leadership ability by scouts during the pre-draft process.
