Alabama CB visits Lions and really wants Detroit RB's cleats image

Alabama cornerback and 2024 NFL draft prospect Terrion Arnold is visiting with the Detroit Lions ahead of the 2024 NFL draft, according to his Instagram story on Wednesday.

And while he was walking through the Lions' locker room, he stopped at the locker of Lions running back and former Crimson Tide teammate, Jahmyr Gibbs, and took notice of his cleats.

In fact, Arnold was so impressed with Gibbs' footwear that he tagged the running back and jokingly asked him if he could "get them."

Arnold also made a stop at the locker of wide receiver and another former Alabama teammate, Jameson Williams.

Arnold is considered one of the best cornerbacks in this year's class, with only Toledo's Quinyon Mitchell being on par with him, at least in the opinion of analysts.

The Lions are in the market for a cornerback, so bringing Arnold in for a visit makes sense. Unfortunately, chances are he'll be out of reach for the Lions, barring a significant trade up from No. 29 overall.
