Decker joined the Lions as a first-round draft pick out of Ohio State in 2016. He became the first Detroit rookie offensive tackle to start all 16 games since 2001. After impressing as a rookie, he missed the start of the 2017 season following shoulder surgery and played only eight games that year. Decker's deal adds to the investment the Lions have made in their offensive line this offseason.
