Lions land dynamic playmaker Kendrick Law at No. 168 in 2026 draft
Detroit Lions draft Kentucky wide receiver Kendrick Law with the No. 168 overall pick (5th round) in the 2026 NFL Draft. Law is known for dynamic run-after-catch ability and quickness (40-yard dash 4.45), led Kentucky with 53 receptions in 2025 after stints at Alabama, and brings extensive special-teams experience (537 career snaps). He’s viewed as a potential gunner/returner who could develop into a downfield threat in Drew Petzing’s offense, with analysts like Dane Brugler praising his floor as a dynamic underneath weapon and special-teamer.
