The Lions are signing former Patriots linebacker Marquis Flowers, according to ESPN Insider Adam Schefter. This signing does not come as a surprise. Flowers seemed like a likely fit with the Lions this offseason when he was a free agent but he re-signed with New England. After being cut Saturday, it once again seemed like an easy fit with Detroit considering his connections with first-year Detroit coach Matt Patricia. Plus, he gives the Lions some help at a position of need both at linebacker and on special teams.
