ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- The Detroit Lions agreed to terms on a multiyear contract with free agent defensive end Dewayne White on Sunday, filling one of their offseason needs.
White arrived in the Detroit area on Friday and met with the coaches and front office on Saturday.
He played for Detroit coach Rod Marinelli when he was the defensive line coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The 6-foot-2, 273-pound White made 14 sacks the last three seasons, playing in 16 games each year for the Buccaneers, and has 114 career tackles over four seasons.
The Lions traded defensive end James Hall to St. Louis for a fifth-round pick on Friday.
