Stanford's Sam Roush: Safe Bet for Lions' Draft

0:00On April 3rd, Detroit Lions got some questions at tight end with Sam Laporta nursing health issues, so they might grab one early in the NFL draft. Stanford Sam Rausch stands out as a safe bet, projected for rounds three through six with zero injury red flags. Rausch has been rock solid in college, suiting up for all 12 games each of his four seasons from 2022 to 2025. No major knocks on his medical report, making him one of the cleanest prospects out there. Fans and scouts love a player like this who stays on the field, especially for a lion squad building depth behind Laporta. His reliability could lock down that back up role without the drama of injury histories. At 23 years old heading into 2026, he's a touch older than some rookies, but that experience means he's draft ready. Medical experts rate his concern level at zero out of 10. If Detroit wants steady production without the risk, Rausch fits the bill perfectly, keep an eye on him as draft A-nears.
