Trey Flowers Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports that the Lions have told EDGE Trey Flowers they plan to release him on the 1st day of the new league year (March 16). Flowers played out 3 seasons of his 5-year deal with Detroit but missed 19 of 33 possible games over the past 2 campaigns. Releasing him clears about $10 million in cap space but leaves about $12.9 million in dead cap on the roll, according to Spotrac. We'll see where he lands ahead of his age-29 season.
