We have our Detroit Lions first free agency defection of 2022. Linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin is heading to Houston to join the Texans.
Reeves-Maybin has signed with the Texans on a 2-year deal worth a reported $7.5 million. The exact details are not yet publicly revealed.
He is the first Lions player from 2021 to sign with another team. The Lions have brought back most of their own free agents, including LBs Alex Anzalone and Josh Woods. Reeves-Maybin recorded 82 tackles and four PDs in 2021 in the most extensive playing time in his five years in Detroit.
