"Lions Secure Brock Wright with Matched Offer, Re-Sign Veteran Cornerback"

The Detroit Lions matched the San Francisco 49ers' offer to retain tight end Brock Wright, whose contract details reveal a structured deal that benefits both parties. The three-year, $12 million contract includes voided years to spread out the signing bonus and unguaranteed bonuses to motivate Wright. The Lions are in good shape with a manageable cap hit for the first two years and a reasonable dead cap if they cut him after two years, making the deal more tolerable and fair.

Lions Match 49ers' Offer, Retain TE Brock Wright

The Detroit Lions have matched the 49ers' offer sheet for tight end Brock Wright, keeping him on a three-year, $12 million contract. This leaves the 49ers still in need of a backup tight end, with George Kittle as the primary option. If the 49ers don't secure a veteran tight end before the draft, they may use their draft picks to address the position. Last year's picks, Cameron Latu and Brayden Willis, have had limited impact, while former backup Charlie Woerner signed with the Atlanta Falcons.
