Safety C.C. Brown Signs 1-year Deal With Lions

The Lions have acquired some help at the safety position.

C.C. Brown was in Allen Park visiting with the Lions officials Monday and has signed a one-year deal, his agent, Chad Wiestling, confirmed to The Detroit News. Terms of the deal were not immediately available.

Brown, a sixth-year pro who began his career in Houston, started seven games for the New York Giants last season. But the 6-foot, 208-pound strong safety was benched after a poor outing in a loss to Philadelphia in early November. He finished with 69 tackles, three passes defensed and three forced fumbles last season.
