The Detroit Lions are making a move to bolster their quarterback room, agreeing to terms with veteran Kyle Allen, according to an announcement from his agency, Vayner Football.

Terms of the deal are not immediately known.

Allen, who turned 29 earlier this month, has seven years of experience with 19 career starts. He joins a quarterback room that currently features starter Jared Goff and backups Hendon Hooker and Jake Fromm.

It’s probably safe to assume the job of Hooker, a developmental quarterback Detroit selected in the third round of the 2023 draft, is safe. We might have to wait until training camp to learn the fate of Fromm, who will probably be Allen’s primary competition.

Allen most recently spent time in Pittsburgh during the 2024 season, where he served as the backup to Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. His last two starts came in 2022, as a member of the Houston Texans; he went 0-2.
