Jahmyr Gibbs' Impact on Lions' Draft and Offense

TL;DR Summary
Detroit Lions' rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs plans to expand his route tree as a dual-threat option, utilizing his pass-catching skills that he developed playing 7-on-7 in his backyard. The Lions drafted Gibbs at 12th overall for his versatility and plan to use him as they did at Alabama, running more routes and not just goals and hitches. Last season, Gibbs rushed for 926 yards and caught 44 passes for 444 yards, finishing second in Crimson Tide single-season history for catches by a running back. Expectations are high for the Lions and Gibbs is expected to be an immediate contributor.
