T.J. Lang
After taking free agent visits to Detroit and Seattle, veteran pro bowl guard T.J. Lang had offers to weigh from the Lions, Seahawks and Packers.
Lang settled on a three-year deal with the Lions, worth a reported $28.5 million, including $19 million in guaranteed money.
The 29-year-old Lang spent six seasons with the Packers and Green Bay wanted him back, but at their price.
The Packers resigned outside linebacker Nick Perry to a five-year, $60 million deal. Then, after talks broke off with Jared Cook, the Packers signed free agents Martellus Bennett and Lance Kendricks.
Lang played his college football at Eastern Michigan and has a home in Michigan, so his signing with Detroit makes sense. Not to mention, the Lions have a good quarterback (Matthew Stafford) and are a playoff caliber team.
