Lions to Sign LB Troy Reeder
The Detroit Lions are poised to fill out their final roster spot with the signing of LB Troy Reeder per his Management Company. Incidentally, Reeder was not re-signed by the Rams after they signed the Lions Grant Stuard as a younger (and attempted upgrade) version of the Special teams trole that Reeder had been filling.
Reeder is a seven-year veteran that was a 2019 USFA of Rams out of Penn State, and he has played exclusively in Los Angeles, with six years with the Rams (including the last three) and one year with the Chargers (2022). The 31-year-old has been a part-time starter, but primarily a special teamer and backup throughout his career. He will likely compete as an MLB with Joe Bachie to be the backup to Jack Campbell. He fits as a Brad Holmes player, being extremely athletic
The Lions currently have the max of 91 players as they enter camp, with Ahmed Hassanein being an International Player, allowing the Lions to carry one additional roster spot.
