Detroit Lions sign CB Mac McCain

The Detroit Lions have signed former Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Mac McCain, the team announced on Thursday afternoon.

McCain went undrafted in 2021 out of North Carolina A&T, the HBCU school that just so happens to be Lions general manager Brad Holmes’ alma mater.

McCain spent his rookie season with the Denver Broncos before the Eagles poached him a week into the regular season. He would make two game appearances that year for Philly, playing 33 special teams snaps and 11 on defense.

After another short stint with the Broncos, he signed back with the Eagles and spent most of the 2022 season on their practice squad.
