The Detroit Lions and veteran cornerback D.J. Reed have agreed on a $48 million, three-year contract with $32 million guaranteed on Monday, according to a person familiar with the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because teams can't sign free agents until Wednesday. Detroit general manager Brad Holmes made the move shortly after not retaining cornerback Carlton Davis, who agreed to a $60 million, three-year deal with the New England Patriots. Later in the day, Holmes released 32-year-old defensive end Za'Darius Smith.
