Lions Free Agency Report: Re-Signing Levi Onwuzurike Stands Out as Best Move Yet

Lions Score a Steal: Re-Signing Levi Onwuzurike is Their Best Free Agency Move Yet

Levi Onwuzurike looked like he was headed for a big payday elsewhere after a breakout 2024 season, but the Detroit Lions managed to bring him back on a short, team-friendly deal. The defensive tackle, who tied for the team lead with 45 pressures, is set to play a key role in Detroit’s defensive front—especially with Alim McNeill working his way back from injury.

With a reported one-year, $5.5 million contract, Onwuzurike’s deal is an absolute bargain compared to other interior pass rushers in free agency. If he continues his upward trajectory, the Lions will have secured one of the best value signings of the offseason.
