Detroit Lions general manager Martin Mayhew has insisted that LaAdrian Waddle and Corey Hilliard are good options to choose from in the right tackle department.
Mayhew said that Waddle and Hilliard both played well before their respective injuries and believes that they will both be able to hit form again in 2014.
"I'd feel very comfortable [with those two as options]," Mayhew told the club's official website. "They both played really good football for us last year.
"Waddle got hurt with an elbow, and his play kind of ticked down at that point when that happened. But he was playing really good football before that happened.
"Corey was playing great before he got injured too. Both of those guys are quality players on our offensive line and we wouldn't shy away at all from putting those guys on the field. I feel comfortable with those guys out there."
Waddle signed for the Lions before last season as an undrafted free agent.
