The Detroit Lions made only one big splash this offseason when they signed cornerback D.J. Reed, but the move could be one that pays off all season long for their defense.
Reed joins a secondary that has been strong overall in recent seasons, but needed a definite boost at his position. He adds some punch to a cornerback room that has endured plenty of questions and frustrations lately.
As such, PFF and writer Dalton Wasserman still like the move for the Lions to sign Reed. It holds up as their best offseason decision the franchise made in 2025 thanks to the immediate potential it offers their defense.
