Lions Worked Out WR Jeremy Kerley & DB Michael Jordan

Adam Schefter reports that the Lions brought in free agent WR Jeremy Kerley and DB Michael Jordan for tryouts on Friday.

Kerley, 29, is a former fifth-round pick of the Jets back in 2011. He spent five years in New York before he was released back in March of last year and later signed to a one-year contract worth over $1 million by the Lions.

Detroit elected to trade Kerley to the 49ers in exchange for OL Brandon Thomas coming out of the preseason in 2016.

The 49ers signed Kerley to a three-year, $10.5 million deal that included a $1.7 million signing bonus last year only to cut him loose coming out of the preseason. Kerley spent a year with the Jets before signing a one-year deal with the Bills back in April.

Unfortunately, Buffalo released him a few months ago.

In 2017, Kerley appeared in eight games and caught 22 passes for 217 yards receiving and one touchdown.

Jordan, 26, wound up signing on with the Rams as an undrafted free agent out of Missouri Western State back in May of 2016. He spent just over a year in Los Angeles before he was waived and later claimed by the Browns.

Cleveland released Jordan coming out of the preseason and he was once again claimed, this time by the Giants. New York waived Jordan earlier in the week.

In 2018, Jordan has appeared in two games for the Giants but has yet to record a statistic.
