ALLEN PARK -- The Detroit Lions continued to fine-tune their depth at receiver by signing former Cowboys wideout Brian Brown before practice on Saturday. They released another receiver, Dom Williams, in the corresponding move.

Williams had signed with the club on Friday, but lasted just a day.

Brown was signed by the Cowboys last year after he went undrafted out of Richmond. He spent most of his time on the practice squad and did not appear in a game.

At Richmond, Brown caught at least 76 passes in each of his final three seasons. He finished his career with 247 catches for 4,203 yards and 23 touchdowns. Now he joins a receiver mix that is absolutely loaded in Detroit.

Starters Marvin Jones, Golden Tate and Kenny Golladay are all back, along with top reserve TJ Jones. And if the Lions opt for five wideouts, there's a healthy competition there too between Jace Billingsley, Brandon Powell and Teo Redding.
