The Lions have added another name to the growing list of players signed to reserve/future contracts now that the season has ended. Former San Francisco 49ers wideout Ronnie Bell agreed to sign with the Lions.
Bell played collegiately at Michigan and was known for his playmaking skills while with the Wolverines. He was selected by the 49ers in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL draft. After playing in 17 games as a rookie and catching six passes–three of which went for touchdowns–Bell spent most of the 2024 campaign on San Francisco’s practice squad.
Reserve/future contracts are for players with NFL experience who did not finish the season on an active 53-man roster. The Lions signed 11 of their own practice squad players to those deals on Monday, with Bell joining on Tuesday.
