Detroit Lions continue to beef up pass rush, sign DE Charles Harris: Report

The Detroit Lions are getting more help for their anemic pass rush.

The Lions agreed to a free agent contract with edge rusher Charles Harris on Thursday, according to ESPN.

A first-round pick by the Miami Dolphins in 2017, one pick after the Lions took Jarrad Davis, Harris has 6.5 sacks in four seasons with the Dolphins and Atlanta Falcons.

The Lions have focused on upgrading their pass rush in the early part of free agency.
