Darren Fells is back for a second tour with the Detroit Lions.
Fells signed a one-year deal with the Lions on Wednesday and should take the retiring Josh Hill's role as the team's No. 2 tight end.
Hill signed a free agent deal with the Lions in March, but told the team in recent weeks he planned to retire. Fells, similarly, is best known for his blocking ability and physical prowess in the red zone.
The Lions are thin at the tight end position behind Pro Bowl starter T.J. Hockenson.
