A frenzy of activity late in the free agency period gives the Detroit Lions a wide range of options at the linebacker position this year. Among the batch of eleven linebackers currently under contract with the Lions, we have a little bit of everything.
Whether an upstart youth movement, veteran leaders looking to re-establish their careers, newcomers entering with a wide range of talent and expectation, and of course those unsung guys who have earned late roster spots over the last few years.
The linebacker positional race promises to be one of the most interesting subplots of the preseason in Allen Park, MI.
