Lions' Jalen Reeves-Maybin: Heading back to Detroit

Reeves-Maybin agreed to a contract with the Lions on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Reeves-Maybin, who spent the first five years of his NFL career in Detroit before joining Houston last season, is now set to reunite with his former team in 2023. The 230-pound linebacker posted career highs with 82 tackles, four pass breakups and two forced fumbles during his final campaign with the Lions in 2021, but he saw a significant drop in his snaps on defense during his lone season in Houston. He'll likely be ticketed for a depth role as he rejoins the Lions.
