Lions Re-Sign LB DeAndre Levy

Found March 06, 2013 on NFL Trade Rumors: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: DeAndre Levy,  Justin Durant
TEAMS: Detroit Lions
Michigan-news-may-2009
Tim Twentyman of DetroitLions.com reports that the Lions and LB DeAndre Levy have reached an agreement on a multi-year contract. Levy, 25, is still young enough to develop into a solid contributor, but was really more of a liability last year for the Lions’ defense. Pro Football Focus has him listed as the third-worst qualifying 4-3 outside linebacker last season. Justin Durant is also set to become an unrestricted free agent, so we’ll have to see if he’s also a part of their future plans.   The post Lions Re-Sign LB DeAndre Levy appeared first on NFL Trade Rumors -.
