No selections made by the Lions in the 2019 Supplemental Draft

The 2019 NFL Supplemental Draft was held today, and as expected, the Detroit Lions did not make a selection.

Five players declared for the supplemental draft and Lions Wire’s own Jeff Risdon profiled the two prospects that were most commonly thought of as draftable: Jalen Thompson, a defensive back from Washington State and Marcus Simms, a wide receiver from West Virginia.

The NFL supplemental draft has ended with just one player picked: Washington State DB Jalen Thompson to #Cardinals in Round 5.

West Virginia WR Marcus Simms, Syracuse LB Shyheim Cullen, Northland CC TE Devonaire Clarington and St. Francis DB Bryant Perry are now free agents.

Thompson was the only player selected in the supplemental draft by any organization, as the Arizona Cardinals used a fifth rounder to procure his rights. Simms, who became a free agent after the conclusion of the draft, is signing with the Jacksonville Jaguars, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

The Lions current roster sits at 89-players as we inch closer to the start of training camp on July 25th.
