Lions Sign G Tim Lelito, Place G Joe Dahl On Injured Reserve

The Detroit Lions announced that they’ve signed G Tim Lelito to a contract on Tuesday and placed G Joe Dahl on injured reserve with a leg injury.

Lelito, 27, wound up signing on with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of back in 2013. He has managed to make the 53-man roster in all four his seasons in the NFL and returned to the Saints last year on a one-year, $1.67 million contract.

The Titans signed Lelito to a one-year deal this offseason but he was unfortunately among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason.
