ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- The Detroit Lions, still searching for another pass rusher to help Ezekiel Ansah, are signing veteran defensive end Robert Ayers to a one-year deal, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Detroit has struggled with its pass rush throughout the preseason, failing to register a sack in the first two preseason games before finally reaching the quarterback against Tampa Bay. It has been an area of concern and need for most of the offseason, one that was not really addressed by the Lions during the draft, with fourth-round pick Da'Shawn Hand.
