Detroit Lions 2017 roster review: Did Tahir Whitehead do enough to earn a new contract?

It’s the offseason for 28 of 32 teams, and one of those teams happens to be the Detroit Lions. In an effort to get you ready for free agency—which is now less than two months away—we’re going to review the Lions’ roster player-by-player.

We’ll start with the free agents in an effort to get an idea of what Detroit should do before those players hit the market. Then we’ll move onto the players under contract and see what their role may be going forward.

Today we start with linebacker Tahir Whitehead, whose future with the team is unknown.
