Daurice Fountain: Doesn't make 53-man roster

Fountain was released by the Lions on Tuesday.

Fountain spent all of last season on Detroit's practice squad and signed a reserve/future contract with the organization in January. He was in competition for a roster spot throughout training camp but didn't make the cut after catching just two of seven targets for 15 yards during preseason play. The Lions currently have just four healthy receivers on their roster, so they'll likely need to add some depth at the position through free agency or the waiver wire.
