Why it Matters for Detroit Lions and Graham Glasgow
The return of Glasgow is significant for both the Lions and the player himself. After spending four seasons as a starter for the Lions, Glasgow signed a lucrative four-year, $44 million deal with the Denver Broncos. However, the Broncos recently released him, resulting in a cap space of $11 million. As a result of his release, Glasgow became free to sign with any team as an unrestricted free agent. For the Lions to accommodate Glasgow, they may need to decide on Hal Vaitai, whose high cap hit for 2023 could affect the team’s financial situation.

The return of Glasgow to the Lions on a 1-year, $4.5 million deal is a significant move for both the team and the player. Glasgow, who spent four seasons as a starter for the Lions before signing with the Denver Broncos, became an unrestricted free agent after his recent release. With the Lions needing to accommodate his return, they may need to make financial decisions regarding other players on their roster, such as Hal Vaitai. Nevertheless, the addition of Glasgow will provide a boost to the Lions’ offensive line and should be welcomed by the team and its fans.
