Brad Holmes, the general manager of the Detroit Lions, has made a name for himself as one of the NFL’s top talent scouts. Holmes has contributed some essential components to the organisation in three drafts.
Now, this offseason, the players from his first Draft will be available for extensions. Amon-Ra St. Brown, Alim McNeill, and Penei Sewell are among the top contenders for extensions. If the Lions choose to exercise Sewell’s fifth-year option, then his extension will have to wait another year.
However, the $14 million dead limit that was recently formally established will have an impact on some of these decisions about free agency and extensions. This resulted from the Friday automatic voiding of seven contracts.
After Isaiah Buggs and Marvin Jones are released in 2023, the Lions will also have dead cap money on the books, according to Over The Cap. The Lions now have a dead cap of $15.7 million overall.
Over The Cap lists the sum as the fourth highest in the league. Early in the season, Jones went to take care of a personal situation, and the Lions and he mutually agreed to a release.
After being cut loose, Buggs signed with the practice squad of the Kansas City Chiefs. Prior to the 2024 season, he recently signed a reserve/futures contract to stay with the team.
