Just in:Lions’ Careful Veteran Signings Signal New Era of Success….
The Detroit Lions have improved significantly in recent years, with the talent on the roster increasing thanks to effective drafting by general manager Brad Holmes. Veteran signings are now made with careful consideration to ensure a good fit.
The era of signing players with few other options or overpaying to attract them is over. Detroit has become a desirable destination where players want to play and stay long-term if possible.

In particular, these three former Lions starters might be nearing the end of their NFL careers.
