The Lions have released 33-year old DE Jared DeVries.  DeVries missed all of last season after tearing his ACL in training camp.  DeVries spent his whole 10-year career with the Lions having played in 118 games in which he had 185 tackles, 16.5 sacks, 6 forced fumbles and he defensed 8 passes.  The Lions won’t miss him much in 2010 but he did have a solid career as a backup for them.

UPDATE:  (4/11/2010) - The Lions have re-signed Jared DeVries to a 1-year, $1.7 million dollar deal.
