Before C.J. Anderson went on a three-game tear for the Los Angeles Rams late last season and into the playoffs, the new Detroit Lions running back had arguably the best game of his career against none other than his new head coach.

The Lions made Anderson's signing official Friday, four days after he agreed to terms with the club on a one-year deal.

Anderson worked out for the Lions last season and has been around the league since 2013, so he's not exactly an unfamiliar face.
