Report: James-Michael Johnson signing with the Detroit Lions

With a trade deadline looming in the NFL and questionable rumors being the only thing for a Lions team that was declared buyers rather than sellers by the general manager, one acquisition trickled in on Tuesday afternoon. Although no trades have been made, the Lions are reported to be signing inside linebacker James-Michael Johnson, most recently with the Jaguars, to the team.

Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network:

Not a trade, but… LB James-Michael Johnson, formerly of the #Jaguars, is signing with #Lions, I’m told.
