Former Detroit Lions cornerback Amik Robertson has signed a two-year, $16 million contract with the Washington Commanders, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

More changes are happening within the Detroit Lions organization after the team reportedly acquired Carolina Panthers center Cade Mays and Miami Dolphins offensive tackle Larry Borom.

During his two seasons with the Lions, Robertson was the only defensive back to not miss a game, but he’s now headed off to his third NFL team as he is signing a two-year deal with the Washington Commanders, according to multiple reports.

The Detroit Lions are reportedly signing a center as free agency gets underway. The Lions will sign former Carolina Panthers center Cade Mays to a 3-year, $25 million deal, as a potential starter on the offensive line. Mays, 26, has started 27 games, including 20 in the past two seasons where he didn’t allow a single sack.
