Lions Release EDGE James Houston Ahead of Week 13

News summary

The Detroit Lions have released EDGE rusher James Houston ahead of their Week 13 game against the Chicago Bears. Houston, a sixth-round pick from Jackson State, initially made an impact with eight sacks in seven games during his rookie season in 2022. However, his performance declined due to a severe ankle injury in 2023, limiting him to two games, and he managed only one sack in eight games this year. Despite the Lions being short on edge rushers due to injuries, including Aidan Hutchinson, Marcus Davenport, and John Cominsky, the team decided to move on from Houston. Head coach Dan Campbell expressed that sometimes players need a fresh start, which might benefit Houston. The Lions have already taken steps to bolster their defensive line by acquiring Za'Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns.
