New Lion - Eric Banks

They just claimed him. Sounds pretty good. Below is link and info I found at the link.

Banks is a 6-foot-5 270-pound defensive end/outside linebacker hybrid who is very good at rushing the quarterback. While he may have an uphill battle to make the team, he does have connections. Rams defensive line coach Eric Henderson coached Banks in 2016, and no doubt pulled some strings to get Banks an offer from the Rams. Banks is a four-year player whose best season was 2017 when he registered 24 tackles, 8.5 TFLs, 1.5 sacks, one pass defense, and three forced fumbles. Despite a background from a small school, Banks has an uncanny nose for the football and could be a strong contributor on special teams.

That’s what I was wondering. Do the Lions have the cap space to take the dead money cap hit this year for the last 2 years of the Flowers contract?
