Comparison to Previous Contract
This new contract marks a significant change from Moseley’s previous deal with the Lions. When he initially joined the team prior to the 2023 season, he signed a one-year, $6 million contract with $2 million guaranteed. However, his time with the Lions has been marred by injury.
Injury Setbacks
Moseley arrived in Detroit while rehabbing from an injury and underwent a second procedure on his knee, which kept him sidelined through training camp. Despite being activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list at the end of camp, Moseley did not see action until Week 5. Unfortunately, his return was short-lived, as he suffered a torn ACL after just two defensive snaps.
