The Detroit Lions have officially signed four of their draft picks as rookie minicamp gets underway. They also announced the addition of 10 undrafted rookie free agents.

Signings include LSU offensive guard Miles Frazier (Round 5), Boise State edge defender Ahmed Hassanein (Round 6), Georgia safety Dan Jackson (Round 7) and Georgia receiver Dominic Lovett (Round 7).

For those curious, it’s not unusual for rookies to hit the field for minicamp without signing their deals. Draft picks that remain unsigned for the Lions include Ohio State defensive lineman Tyleik Williams (Round 1), Georgia offensive guard Tate Ratledge (Round 2) and Arkansas receiver Isaac TeSlaa (Round 3).
