Detroit Lions want more consistency from TE Eric Ebron in 2017

Posted Mar 5, 2017
Eric Ebron has steadily increased his production in his first three NFL seasons, going from 25 to 47 to 61 catches. But as the Detroit Lions map out their future plans at tight end, general manager Bob Quinn was noncommittal about Ebron's long-term prospects in Detroit. Quinn said the Lions have not yet decided whether to pick up the fifth-year option on Ebron's contract. (Detroit Free Press)
