The Detroit Lions claimed a linebacker despite not having hired a GM or head coach yet

The Detroit Lions are currently in the middle of a regime change. The Pride are interviewing candidates for both their vacant general manager and head coaching roles. That after the team fired both general manager Bob Quinn and head coach Matt Patricia in late November.

But just because the Lions are still trying to fill those critical positions it doesn’t mean the team can’t take advantage of possibly finding a hidden gem or two on the waiver wire.
