Detroit Lions on the Prowl in Free Agency

The Detroit Lions are on the move in free agency so far this off season signing back-up running back Maurice Morris yesterday, formerly of the Seattle Seahawks to help carry the load with Kevin Smith in the backfield. Additionally, today they have also signed former San Francisco 49er wide receiver Bryant Johnson to a 3 year, $8 million dollar deal to be their #2 receiver behind Calvin Johnson.

Lastly, it also has been reported the Lions have traded veteran back-up QB Jon Kitna to the Dallas Cowboys for what has been described as "late round picks".

So far so good for Detroit's new front office regime in off season acquisitions.
