The Lions <\/a>have been accustomed to big-time playmakers in the secondary with Kerby Joseph<\/a> and Brian Branch<\/a>. Unfortunately, both are attempting to recover from significant health concerns. Adding a speedy safety in the draft might help the Lions<\/a> recover some of that playmaking ability. That’s where Robert Spears-Jennings comes in.<\/p>\n

Here is the excerpt of my medical report on Spears-Jennings:<\/a><\/p>\n

(Ages in parentheses are at start of 2026 season and are factored into the concern level. Injury info and ages based on available public information are unverified and subject to update. Games played data courtesy of\u00a0sports-reference.com<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Robert Spears-Jennings, S (22) – Oklahoma<\/p>\n

Projected round 3-5. 4.32 40-yard dash at combine.<\/p>\n

Concern level 3\/10<\/p>\n

The details and the residuals of the shoulder injury will need investigation. Players can have long careers after a shoulder injury that require long-term bracing, like Alex Anzalone.<\/p>\n

Spears-Jennings finished with 2 INT in his career.<\/p>\n
