The Lions don’t have to worry about Frank Ragnow or Kerryon Johnson holding out as the former SEC standouts have already signed with Detroit.
The club announced the signing of both players, along with the following 2018 NFL Draft picks: fullback Nick Bawden (San Diego State), offensive lineman Tyrell Crosby (Oregon), and DaShawn Hand (Alabama).
The three SEC veterans won’t be the only rookies from the conference on the roster this summer, as former Florida tight end DeAndre Goolsby and receiver Brandon Powell have both signed as undrafted free agents in addition to former Mizzou safety Anthony Sherrils.
Terms of these deals have yet to be released.
