Lions sign Former 1st round CB Jamar Fletcher, Re-Sign RB Artose Pinner, Release LB Nate Wayne

May 1, 2006 on 6:51 pm | In Uncategorized |

The Lions signed veteran and former 1st round draft pick CB Jamar Fletcher. Fletcher, a former Dolphin and Charger, never has met his early expectations but could be a valuable contributor if given the opportunity. Fletcher likely will be in the mix as a nickel or dime back.

Exclusive Rights Free Agent Artose Pinner also re-signed with the Lions today. Pinner, who is rumored to be very unhappy in Detroit, is a major surprise to have re-signed with the team given the selection of RB Brian Calhoun on Saturday.

LB Nate Wayne was released today as a result of the signing of Fletcher. The Lions are pretty deep with bodies at OLB so it’s no surprise that his services were no longer needed.

  1. Alright, BigBlogger - What’s your take on this whining and crying crap….there’s no two ways about it….the Lions will always find a way to keep things interesting. Marinelli must be about to explode on these kids. Detroit sports-talk radio is a buzz about this…..it’s simple…..you get a contract to do something and you shut your freakin’ mouths and do it to the best of your ability….it’s that freakin’ simple! Give me a break!
