Detroit Lions sign 'Lance Chance U' RB Rakeem Boyd as undrafted free agent

The Detroit Lions announced Monday that they've agreed to terms with 13 undrafted free agents, including Rakeem Boyd, whose name may ring a bell for football fans.

Not only was Boyd a star running back at Arkansas, he also starred in Season 3 of Netflix's "Last Chance U" docuseries.

"Swear ima make em pay.. been in this position before," Boyd tweeted Saturday.

Boyd fits the mold of tough-nosed players that the new regime added during this year's draft class.
