The Detroit Lions offseason is underway, and last week they kicked things off with a couple of noteworthy signings.
First, the Lions signed CFL Most Outstanding Defensive Player Mathieu Betts to a one-year deal.

Later that week, the Lions re-signed kicker Michael Badgley after he finished the season as the team’s starter.
Let’s take a closer look at each players’ contract details and what it means about their future with the Lions.
