Lions' Josh Woods: Sticks with Detroit

Woods re-signed with the Lions on Tuesday.

Woods suffered a neck injury in Week 15 against the Cardinals and subsequently went on IR, effectively ending his season. He ended the 2021 campaign with a career-high 28 tackles across 12 games during his first season with the Lions. The 25-year-old's new contract suggests that he should be good to go for training camp ahead of the 2022 season, when Woods could possibly compete for playing time at inside linebacker, per Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press.
