The Detroit Lions have signed Eric Beverly to a 1-year contract.  Beverly played a lot of tightend last season as a blocker.  He played in 16 games for the Falcons last season and he only caught 1 pass for 0 yards.  Don’t look for the Lions to use him much at tight end, but more as a backup at center and guard.  Don’t worry the 10 year vet is more than large enough to handle the interior of the line as he stands 6′3″ and he weighs 300 pounds.  Signing Beverly was a solid move for offensive line depth for the Lions.
