Allen Park — At the end of last season, defensive tackle Isaiah Buggs was emphatic about his desire to remain with the Detroit Lions. On Monday, the team fulfilled that wish, re-signing him two days before he was set to become an unrestricted free agent.
With incentives, the two-year deal is reportedly worth up to $6 million, according to the NFL Network.
A late addition to the roster last summer, Buggs joined the team days before the start of training camp. It didn't take long to establish himself as part of the team's rotation, and by the second month of the season he was a permanent fixture in the starting lineup.
