Reports that the Detroit Lions weren’t done in free agency on Tuesday were, of course, very true. Late at night, news broke that the Lions were signing former Packers RB Jamaal Williams, but then NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero also broke the news that the team was finalizing a deal that would bring Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman Michael Brockers to Detroit. Details on what Detroit was giving up in the trade were not immediately available.
Ian Rapoport shed further details on the reasons for the trade: the Rams sought to restructure Brockers’ contract, which is worth a base salary of $6.
