Lions Add Linebacker Damone Clark to Strengthen Defense
The Detroit Lions are adding depth to their linebacker room, signing Damone Clark on Wednesday to a deal with terms that have not yet been disclosed.
Clark, 25, got off to a promising start with the Dallas Cowboys after being drafted as a fifth-round pick out of LSU in 2022.
He started 22 games his first two seasons but was a reserve during the 2024 season and was released by the team midway through 2025, when Dallas' defense was struggling.
The move adds depth to a room dealing with the departure of linebacker and defensive captain Alex Anzalone.
