The Detroit Lions announced on Thursday morning they have released veteran cornerback Quinton Dunbar and used his roster spot to sign free agent running back Craig Reynolds.
It’s a tough break for Dunbar, who missed almost all of training camp with an undisclosed personal issue.
“He’s out with personal issues,” Lions head coach Dan Campbell said earlier this week. “But he’s communicating. We know where he’s at. We know what’s going on and we’re thinking about him.”
Dunbar was expected to compete for a starting job at outside cornerback with Amani Oruwariye, but the camp battle never got off the ground with Dunbar away from the practice facility.
