Terrion Arnold has been one of the Detroit Lions’ most exciting young talents this season — and now the coaching staff has a tough decision on their hands. Coming out of the bye, the rookie is pushing hard for a bigger role, especially with his physical play and confidence growing each week.
But the Lions already have experienced corners performing well, and making room for Arnold may mean reducing snaps for a veteran. That’s where things get tricky. Detroit wants to develop their first-round pick, but they’re also in a heated NFC playoff race and every mistake matters.
Is now the time to hand Arnold the keys and let him learn as a full-time starter?
Or should the Lions stay patient and stick with the proven rotation?
Either way, it’s a good problem — because Detroit’s secondary is finally loaded with real talent.
