Torgersen, who played his college ball at Penn, went undrafted and signed by the Atlanta Falcons as an undrafted free agent in May before being waived just prior to the start of the 2017 regular season. He was then signed to the Washington Redskins practice squad before being released in early October.

Terry Foster: Detroit Lions to ‘make serious play’ for Super Bowl Champion head coach
The Detroit Lions had their opportunity and once again, they failed.
With everything on the line on Sunday afternoon against the Cincinnati Bengals, the Lions came out flat (again) and ended up losing 26-17. The loss officially eliminated Detroit from playoff contention and reports are that head coach Jim Caldwell will be fired following the Lions Week 17 game against the Green Bay Packers.
