The Detroit Lions spent the first day of the tampering period to free agency attacking the team’s biggest needs. To help aid their thin defensive line group, they had begun the day by re-signing defensive tackle Isaiah Buggs on a team-friendly deal. While the defensive tackle position is by no means “fixed,” Detroit did well to bring back a serviceable starter and good depth.
Next, the Lions addressed what was widely considered their biggest need on the roster: cornerback. Detroit has reportedly agreed to terms with former Steelers cornerback Cameron Sutton on a three-year deal.
