Lions Bring Back Veteran Edge Rusher After Injury-Plagued 2024 Campaign

The Detroit Lions decided to re-sign defensive end Marcus Davenport on a one-year deal worth up to $4.75 million, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on Saturday.

Davenport's past two seasons have been riddled with injuries. In one season with the Minnesota Vikings in '23, Davenport only played in four games after suffering a high ankle sprain. In the Week 2 game this past season against the Arizona Cardinals, Davenport suffered a season-ending triceps injury.
