Comment () | Share: Lions | Don Muhlbach agrees to new deal Fri, 27 Feb 2015 13:14:27 -0800 Detroit Lions LS Don Muhlbach has agreed to a new one-year deal with the Lions. Financial terms were not disclosed. Comment () | Share: Thu, 26 Feb 2015 13:02:54 -0800 Free-agent DE Phillip Hunt (Eagles) will sign with the Detroit Lions. Comment () | Share: Lions | Theo Riddick may have better role Thu, 26 Feb 2015 11:17:08 -0800 Detroit Lions RB Theo Riddick likely will be given the chance to earn a bigger role in the offense next season after the team released RB Reggie Bush. Fantasy Tip: Riddick did not receive a lot of carries this past season but was involved in the passing game. He caught 34 passes for 316 yards and four touchdowns during the season. Riddick likely will have more value in point-per-reception leagues than he will in standard leagues, but probably will be a mid- to late-round pick in most drafts. Comment () | Share: Lions | Riley Reiff not locked in at LT Thu, 26 Feb 2015 08:07:00 -0800 Detroit Lions OT Riley Reiff is not guaranteed to be the starting left tackle next season, according to general manager Martin Mayhew. The team could consider moving Reiff to right tackle if they sign a left tackle in free agency. Comment () | Share: Lions | George Johnson status resolved Thu, 26 Feb 2015 04:28:29 -0800 Updating a previous report, free-agent DE George Johnson (Lions) is considered a restricted free agent by both the NFL and the NFL Players Association. Comment () | Share: Wed, 25 Feb 2015 14:22:33 -0800 Detroit Lions RB Reggie Bush has been released Wednesday, Feb. 25. Fantasy Tip: This means Joique Bell and Theo Riddick will take over running back duties in Detroit. Riddick will likely take over Bush's role as a complementary, passing down back to Bell and is now a candidate for sleeper status in point-per-reception (PPR) leagues. Bell should see the majority of carries and work near the goal line and remains an RB2 option. As far as Bush is concerned, he still has some gas left in the tank. His fantasy value will obviously depend on where he lands, but he should continue to have more value in PPR leagues. Comment () | Share: Lions | Jarryd Hayne deal not official yet Tue, 24 Feb 2015 04:08:12 -0800 Free-agent RB Jarryd Hayne (Australian rugby) may not have a deal in place yet with the Detroit Lions after all. The Lions were interested in Hayne as a potential running back, most likely with a Futures contract. Comment () | Share: Lions | George Johnson's free agent status questioned Mon, 23 Feb 2015 23:17:52 -0800 Free-agent DE George Johnson (Lions) may or may not be an unrestricted free agent. A player must accumulate four accrued seasons to earn unrestricted free agency, and players must spend six weeks on a 53-man roster to earn an accrued year. Johnson did this in 2011, 2012 and 2014, but in 2013 he was paid for six weeks but was on the Minnesota Vikings' roster for only five. Comment () | Share:  |
