The Detroit Lions filled out their 90-man roster today by signing undrafted rookie offensive lineman Dominick Jackson from Alabama.

Jackson earned second-team All-SEC honors last year, after starting every game at right tackle for the Tide.

A college teammate of second-round pick A'Shawn Robinson, Jackson played two years at Alabama after transferring from College of San Mateo.

The Lions opened the second week of organized team activities Tuesday with just 88 players on their roster, after waiving two injured players last week: tight end Tim Wright and undrafted rookie guard Darius Johnson.

The team signed former Central Michigan tight end Ben McCord to take Wright's place after a workout late Tuesday afternoon.

The Lions conclude their second week of OTAs on Thursday. Four more practices are set for next week, and mandatory minicamp is June 14-16.
