Lions signed LB Jimmy Rolder to a four-year, $5.532 million contract.

11 May 2026

The rookie fourth-round selection gets $1.152 million in guaranteed money after being taken by the Lions with the No. 118 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Rolder should initially serve as a rotational piece but could work his way up to a starting role in short order if former sixth-rounder Malcolm Rodriguez is slow out of the gate.
