Lions make two roster additions
Digest more
As a team, the Lions ranked No. 3 in the NFL in rushing touchdowns (32) and No. 6 in the NFL in rushing yards (2,488) in 2024. Running back Jahmyr Gibbs tied Baltimore's Derrick Henry and Buffalo's James Cook for most rushing touchdowns (16) in 2024, putting up 1,412 rushing yards on 250 carries.
The Detroit Lions signed second-year running back Jabari Small as depth and insurance behind David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs.
Small spent the 2024 season with the Titans' practice squad after joining the team as an undrafted free agent. He'll battle for a roster spot during training camp but will likely face a tough path with the likes of Craig Reynolds and Sione Vaki already serving as depth for Detroit at running back.
