Following in dad's footsteps: Lions reach agreement with Breshad Perriman

Thirty years ago, the Detroit Lions traded for wide receiver Brett Perriman. On Thursday, they reached a free agent agreement with his son, Breshad.

According to agent Drew Rosenhaus, the one-year deal is worth up to $3 million for the younger Perriman.

A first-round pick for the Baltimore Ravens in 2015, Breshad's career got off to a rocky start when he suffered a season-ending knee injury ahead of his debut campaign. He returned in 2016, catching 33 passes for 499 yards and three touchdowns.

After his playing time and production plummeted the next season, the Ravens released him.
