The Detroit Lions needed another QB
As of Wednesday morning, the Lions only had Jared Goff and Hendon Hooker on the quarterback roster. Hooker was sidelined last season in his rookie year due to an injury. They will have a third quarterback for OTAs.

Sudfeld isn’t the only QB the Lions need to draw up paperwork for
The Washington Redskins drafted Sudfeld in the sixth round of the 2016 NFL Draft. The 30-year-old has appeared in six games. In his eight-year NFL career, he’s gone 25/37 passing for 188 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He won Super Bowl LII as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles.
