Lions sign defensive tackle depth following Joel Heath injury

Days after former Michigan State defensive tackle Joel Heath landed on injured reserve with a reported ACL tear, the Detroit Lions added some needed depth along the defensive line, signing defensive tackle Brian Price.

The 6-foot-3, 322-pound price went undrafted out of the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2016 and has had seven stints with six NFL franchises after initially signing with the Green Bay Packers.

In parts of four seasons on active rosters with the Packers, Cowboys, Browns and Raiders, Price has appeared in 24 games, playing 382 defensive snaps and recording 20 tackles.
