The Detroit Lions have made another move to free up roster space by waiving cornerback Dee Virgin from the roster on Tuesday, the team revealed. Virgin, who was signed as the team opened up the season following camp cuts, only lasted a month with Detroit before being forced off the roster.

While on the team, Virgin didn't see a ton of time with the squad, only playing in one game and playing a special teams role. But in that game, Virgin could have made a huge mistake which cost him his spot on the roster. He attempted to down a punt on the one yard line, but left his foot on the goal line causing a touchback and a loss in field position. It might not be the biggest reason Virgin is now looking for work, but the play in Dallas certainly didn't help him.

Virgin was an undrafted free agent cornerback out of West Alabama who was on the Houston Texans' practice squad last season, but did not make the cut to the team this year. He got released out of camp, but the Lions quickly picked him up, and that's where he's remained since.

As for a thought on how the Lions might use the roster spot, they could theoretically look to add another defensive back given the injury to Quandre Diggs, or they might look to add a defensive lineman given their problems there with depth.

This offseason, there have been plenty of notable moves for the Lions, who signed linebacker Devon Kennard and running back LeGarrette Blount as some of their bigger moves early on during the period. Perhaps the biggest move the team has made on the whole, though, was getting Matt Patricia to sign on as head coach. That's been something which has brought new excitement and a breath of fresh air to the organization after a tough finish to 2017. Arguably, there's been no more exciting time to be a Lions fan than right now, as the team tries to transition itself into a contender with new leadership that has a clear championship pedigree.

Detroit has continued to watch the rest of the league to see who they might be able to sign at positions of need off the cut wire as they try to continue to build their team. Some other spots you could expect some additions at are defensive line and linebacker, two of the weaker positions on the roster this season where the Lions could theoretically need an extra veteran hand or two. We'll see what guys the Lions add that are veterans to the mix now.

The moral of the story? Expect Bob Quinn to remain busy in the days ahead as it relates to getting his roster in shape, and expect the team to continue finding ways to improve the roster even as the season evolves.
