Report: Lions re-sign CB Marcus Cooper
The Detroit Lions are bringing back a late addition from last season. Adam Caplan is reporting that the Lions will re-sign cornerback Marcus Cooper to a one-year deal.
#Lions are re-signing CB Marcus Cooper to a 1-year deal, source said. He was claimed off waivers from the #Bears last season.
— Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) March 16, 2019 Claimed on waivers from the Chicago Bears on November 23, Cooper actually had the Lions’ second-highest PFF grade on defense, albeit coming on a mere 36 snaps. With the release of Nevin Lawson and Glover Quin, as well as the signing of Justin Coleman, Cooper figures to provided additional depth for a rebuilding Lions secondary.
