Detroit Lions Sign Justin Herron, Waive Raequan Williams Amid Offensive Line Injuries
The Detroit Lions have signed veteran offensive tackle Justin Herron to bolster their offensive line depth following an injury to backup tackle Dan Skipper, who was seen in a walking boot after the preseason opener. Herron, a 29-year-old sixth-round pick of the New England Patriots in 2020, has battled multiple injuries throughout his career, including a torn ACL and a knee injury that sidelined him for the 2024 season with the New Orleans Saints. He has played in 35 NFL games with 11 starts, providing versatility by playing both tackle positions and serving as an extra blocker. To make room for Herron, the Lions waived defensive lineman Raequan Williams, a Michigan State product who has appeared in seven NFL games and spent time with the Eagles and Panthers before joining Detroit. The move adds experienced depth behind starters Penei Sewell and Taylor Decker, who is currently on the Physically Unable to Perform list recovering from shoulder surgery. Herron's strong work ethic and positive locker room presence are valued by the team as they navigate preseason injuries and prepare for the regular season.
