2025 Lions free agent profile: Carlton Davis is Detroit’s best option to stabilize CB position

Our 2025 Detroit Lions free agent series continues. We’re breaking down each and every single decision the team must make with their pending free agent class ahead of this offseason including what their expectations were coming into the 2024 season, how they performed, and ultimately their chances of returning to Detroit for the next season.

Next up in the series is a player who stepped up into the No. 1 cornerback role and made a big difference for a cornerback room that was mostly young and inexperienced in 2024: Carlton Davis.

Here’s a look at our previously-written free agent profiles: WR Tim Patrick, G Kevin Zeitler, DT Kyle Peko, and LB Derrick Barnes.
