DETROIT, Mich. -- After hosting free agent cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman for a workout, the Detroit Lions announced Monday that they have signed the veteran while waiving safety D'Angelo Amos.
The Lions need help in the secondary with cornerback Quinton Dunbar out due to personal reasons and Corn Elder also sidelined with a leg injury, which kept him out of the team scrimmage at Ford Field over the weekend.
Robey-Coleman has history with Lions defensive back coach Aubrey Pleasant from their time together with the Los Angeles Rams from 2017 to 2019.
