Report: Lions Sign Garrett Reynolds

On Tuesday we found out that the Lions lost CB Bill Bentley for the season due to an ACL tear.

With the roster spot open I assumed the Lions would sign another CB and maybe even Champ Bailey or another CB to replace Bentley. Instead, the Lions brought back offensive lineman Garrett Reynolds.

Reynolds spent training camp with the Lions and played both tackle and guard. He started 23 games for the Atlanta Falcons over the last three seasons.

The Lions were also in need for an offensive lineman as starter LaAdrian Waddle hurt his calf and his backup Corey Hilliard sprained his ankle.

The Lions only have four healthy corners on their 53-man roster.
