Dean Marlowe will be a free agent when the NFL’s negotiation period begins next week. And based on a social media post from the veteran safety, it appears Marlowe understands he will not be back in Detroit in 2022.
Marlowe signed a one-year deal to join the Lions last offseason after three seasons in Buffalo. Playing in 16 games, Marlowe logged 67 total tackles, two PDs and one fumble recovery. He started nine games and played exactly 700 defensive snaps.
It’s something he had no obligation to do, but Marlowe still took the time and initiative to reach out and thank the locals for the support in his one year in Detroit.

The Lions are expected to be active players in the free agent market at safety, where the team also faces losing starter Tracy Walker in free agency as well.
