News

  • Signs deal with Houston

    Ford and the Texans agreed on a two-year, $4.5 million contract Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Ford compiled a career-high 28 tackles, adding two pass defenses, including an interception, and a fumble recovery over 16 games with the Browns in 2023. He'll look to build off of that production as a depth option at cornerback with the Texans in 2024.

  • Available Saturday

    Ford (calf) is good to go for Saturday's wild-card tilt against the Texans.

    Analysis: Ford is set to return from a one-game absence due to a calf injury. It was his first missed game of the season. Barring any setbacks on that end, he should take on his usual role providing depth at cornerback and contributing on special teams.

  • Placed on short-term IR

    Ford (knee) was placed on short-term injured reserve Saturday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Ford's move to short-term IR is a corresponding roster move as running back Mike Boone (quad) comes off IR and is activated on the 53-man roster. The 26-year-old cornerback suffered a knee injury in Week 5 and was already ruled out for the Broncos' Week 6 matchup against the Raiders. The majority of Ford's snaps have come on special teams, so his absence should not have much of an impact on Denver's defensive scheme.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Might not return Sunday

    Ford (knee) is questionable to return Sunday against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Ford had been ever-present for the Broncos this season, but most of his snaps came on special teams, so his fantasy upside isn't very high even when he's available. If he can't return to action, Nate Hairston might be in line for an increase in his snap count.

  • Surprisingly waived by Lions

    Ford was waived by the Lions on Monday, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ford has been a standout on special teams for Detroit since 2018, and the 26-year-old opened training camp by taking first-team reps at nickelback. However, it appears undrafted rookie AJ Parker has since stolen that job and the Lions' new-look coaching staff will move on from Ford. However, it wouldn't be a surprise if the veteran quickly found a new home.

  • Sustains Week 15 foot injury

    Ford (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Analysis: Detroit's depth in the secondary will be depleted for the remainder of the afternoon should Ford prove unable to return, as the Lions find themselves in a tightly contested game in the second half. Ford garnered a season-high 24 defensive snaps last Sunday in a loss to Green Bay after fielding a combined 14 snaps on the defensive side over his first five appearances of the year.

  • Good to go Sunday

    Ford (concussion) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Bears.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, Jeff Okudah (shoulder) has been ruled out, and Desmond Trufant (hamstring) has been placed on IR. If Darryl Roberts (hip) isn't activated by Saturday afternoon, Ford will handle a significant workload in Sunday's divisional contest. Justin Coleman and Amani Oruwariye are expected to start either way.

    Analysis: Ford won't be eligible to retake the field until he fully clears the league's five-step concussion protocol. His contributions are generally relegated to special teams, so his absence won't significantly impact the Lions' defensive scheme.

    Analysis: The Southeast Missouri State standout has made two appearances for the Lions thus far this season, with Week 9's workload of 17 special-teams snaps constituting his greatest involvement of the 2020 campaign. A leg injury kept Ford on injured reserve between Sept. 9 and Oct. 14, with a Week 7 appearance against the Falcons marking his season debut.

  • Shifts to active roster

    The Lions activated Ford (leg) from injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: Ford has practiced for two weeks without a setback, and he'll return to the lineup Sunday against the Falcons. The 25-year-old cornerback is in line for his season debut, but due to the offseason reinforcements at the position, it's unlikely that Ford plays much on defense.

  • Eligible to return from IR

    Ford (leg) returned to practice Wednesday, opening the 21-day window to remove him from IR.

    Ford left Friday's practice with an apparent leg injury, Justin Rogers of the Detroit News reports.

    Analysis: Ford will likely be a depth player again in 2020 after the Lions replaced Darius Slay with rookie first-round pick Jeff Okudah, Desmond Trufant and Darryl Roberts. Once Ford returns, he'll likely stick to special teams.
