The Detroit Lions continue to address their depth in the second wave of free agency by adding another veteran presence to their secondary, Kory Woods of Mlive reports.
According to NFL Network, the Lions are signing former San Francisco 49ers cornerback Rock Ya-Sin. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The 28-year-old defender becomes the second defensive back the Lions have signed this offseason, joining former New York Jets cornerback D.J. Reed. Reed’s signing filled a void for the Lions at starting cornerback after Carlton Davis bolted Detroit following one season to sign a lucrative deal with the New England Patriots. But the exits of versatile defender Ifeatu Melifonwu — who signed with the Miami Dolphins — and Kindle Vildor — who signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers — left the Lions thin in their secondary depth, along with a player who can take snaps on special teams when needed.
