Detroit Lions Undrafted Free Agents: Pitt receiver Dontez Ford signs with team

Pitt had a flurry of guys sign undrafted free agent deals immediately after the NFL Draft this weekend. Another one came a little later in wide receiver Dontez Ford. Per head coach Pat Narduzzi, there was a lot of interest in Ford and he decided to join the Detroit Lions:
