Lions draft wide receiver Dominic Lovett

The Detroit Lions' final selection of the 2025 NFL Draft is Georgia wide receiver Dominic Lovett.

Lovett (5-10, 185) has legitimate 4.40 speed and was a two-year starter for the Bulldogs, mostly playing in the slot. Lovett started his college career at Missouri where he caught 82 passes for 1,019 yards and three touchdowns.

Over the last two seasons at Georgia he played in 28 games (14 starts) with 113 catches for 1,220 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Holmes said after the pick he's had his eye on Lovett for some time and really values his special teams potential. That's where he can find his niche in the NFL and potentially a role on this football team.

"Whenever you put me on the field, I just plan to make an impact any way I can and any way possible," Lovett said. "It may be on special teams it may be on third down or first down. I'm okay with being a team tool guy wherever they need me to be. I would say gunner, kick returner, punt returner ... wherever you want to put me I just want to be on the field."

The Lions drafted Arkansas wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa in the third round and return Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Tim Patrick, Kalif Raymond and others Lovett will have to compete with in camp to earn a roster spot.

"Man, I feel like I can learn so much just from how he plays the game, and I feel I can just pick his brain and I can be in his hip pocket and he can show me the ropes to the NFL in the slot," Lovett said of playing with and learning from St. Brown in Detroit.

"But also learning that knowledge from an outside receiver like Jameson Williams. I feel like it's a blessing I'll be in the room with two vets who I feel like have been doing it at an elite level. Being able to be around those guys and just hang out with them and pick their brains I feel like it's a blessing."
