Allen Park — The Detroit Lions began piecing together the team's practice squad Wednesday afternoon, announcing the signing of 10 players, including the return of veteran kicker Michael Badgley.
A midseason addition last year, Badgley performed well for the Lions, making 20-of-24 field-goal attempts, with a long of 53 yards, as well as all 33 of his extra points. The two sides came together on a new, one-year deal in free agency, which included $350,000 in guarantees, but he was surprisingly released days before training camp to accommodate the addition of wide receiver Denzel Mims, who had been acquired via a trade with the New York Jets.
