Lions Sign Journeyman QB Shaun King

The Lions have recently signed veteran QB Shaun King. I don’t believe that the King signing in any way limits their interest in acquiring another QB to bring into training camp. However, a veteran like King maybe a quick study and could conceivably provide additional depth as a third-stringer. King, who started with Buccaneers and flourished very briefly, has been bouncing around the league the last few years. King has never been a flashy player, but has been capable of providing steady play in limited action.

Hopefully, by this time tomorrow the NFLPA and the owners will have sorted out their differences and agreed upon an extension of their collective bargaining agreement. As interesting as a league-wide salary cap purge on Monday morning maybe to watch, the health of the league rests upon the fact that the two parties can sort out their differences.
