Wednesday gave Detroit Lions fans the news they've been eagerly waiting for. No, not Trey Hendrickson signing with the Lions -- he instead went to Baltimore after the Maxx Crosby trade fell through.
Instead, the Lions have restructured quarterback Jared Goff's contract, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The move frees up $32 million for the Lions entering the heart of the free agency season.
$32 million is a lot of money that could be spent on positions of need. Not to mention the Crosby dream is alive once again. Surely, the Lions will use those new funds to aggressively tackle needs on the defense, right?
