3/27/2012: Signed a one-year contract.

Latest News

Lions re-signed RB Kevin Smith to a one-year contract.
One season after going unsigned until November, Smith gets a soft landing with the only team he's ever known. Coming off another injury-checkered campaign, he received no other known interest in free agency. Smith was effective and versatile when he managed to get on the field in 2011, but less so after severely spraining his ankle on Thanksgiving. If all goes according to plan for the Lions, he'll join Jahvid Best (concussions) and Mikel Leshoure (Achilles) in a three-man, rotational backfield. Smith's injury history and the presence of Best and Leshoure greatly curb his fantasy upside in both dynasty and redraft formats.

The Lions are reportedly in discussions to re-sign free agent RB Kevin Smith.
The versatile Smith should come cheaply enough considering his checkered injury history. The Lions reportedly have visions of a Saints-like backfield with Smith joining Jahvid Best (concussions) and Mikel Leshoure (Achilles).

GM Martin Mayhew confirmed that the Lions are interested in re-signing free agent Kevin Smith.
Smith may be as injury-prone as any back in the NFL, but he was impressive in late-season action whenever he took the field semi-healthy. The Lions could use him in a New Orleans-style three-back committee if he's brought back.

Chris McCosky on Twitter
Free agent Kevin Smith indicated Tuesday that the Lions have expressed interest in re-signing him next month.
Smith won't be high on GM Martin Mayhew's list of priorities, but there's interest in bringing back Smith at the right price. Smith emphasized that he "loves" his teammates and coaches as well as the Lions organization. "We'll see in March," said Smith. "I know Detroit has shown interest in bringing me back for another season."

Jahvid Best
Sidelined
Jahvid Best (concussions) was a full participant at Lions OTA practice Monday.
Best worked with the first-team offense and was not limited in the no-contact practice. Mikel Leshoure (Achilles') also participated on a limited basis, before admitting he's not yet 100 percent. Best will be a dicey 2012 fantasy pick, but we like him as a high-end RB3. He projects as a 12-15 touch-per-game back.

Mikel Leshoure
Sidelined
The Detroit News expects Mikel Leshoure to eventually draw a two-game suspension for his twin offseason marijuana arrests.
Leshoure has enrolled in the NFL's substance abuse program, and is being tested "several times" a week. Still rehabbing his torn Achilles', Leshoure insisted he is "feeling great" at Lions OTAs. "I don't know what percentage it's at or anything because I haven't really pushed it to the limit yet," he said. "There's plenty of time for that. ... But I will be ready to roll by the season."

Second-round WR Ryan Broyles (ACL surgery) is not participating in team drills at Lions OTAs.
"I am just doing as much as I can," Broyles said. "(Monday) was my first day of practice. I am about half-speed but I feel good." Coach Jim Schwartz said Broyles is on a good pace in his rehab. "Everything he does is part of a very structured progression," Schwartz said. "We will start increasing his workload based on how his body feels. He's having a very good rehab. He's doing well."
