Detroit Lions host free agent safety Dean Marlowe for visit

The Detroit Lions continue to examine ways to improve their thin secondary. Per ESPN’s Field Yates, the Lions are hosting former Buffalo Bills safety Dean Marlowe for a visit. The visit was confirmed by Thursday’s official transaction list.

An undrafted prospect in 2015, Marlowe has carved out a pretty nice career for him over the past six seasons. He beat the odds and made the Carolina Panthers’ 53-man roster in his rookie season, eventually playing in four games on special teams. Unfortunately for Marlowe, his career took a hit the following season when he suffered a season-ending hamstring injury.
