The Detroit Lions may be in the midst of a bunch of pre-draft meetings, but that doesn’t mean they’ve put free agency on hold. According to ESPN’s Field Yates, the Lions hosted free agent safety DeShon Elliott for a visit on Wednesday.
UPDATE: Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Lions have signed DeShon Elliott to a one-year deal. Terms of the deal were not disclosed at this time. With this signing, the Lions now have seven safeties under contract for the 2022 season, yet only two—Tracy Walker and Brady Breeze—signed beyond this season.
