The Lions have agreed to terms with unrestricted free-agent wide receiver Geronimo Allison.

The agreement is reportedly for $910K in 2020 with a $137.5K signing bonus, per Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.

He played his college football at Illinois, and was signed by the Packers as an undrafted free agent in 2016.

In four seasons with Green Bay, Allison recorded 89 receptions for 1,045 yards and six touchdowns.

In 2018, Allison was on the verge of a breakout season prior to suffering a groin injury that prematurely ended his season.

Before the injury, he secured 20 catches for 303 yards and two touchdowns.

The ex-Packers wide receiver secured 34 receptions for 287 yards and two touchdowns in 2019.

Allison joins a Detroit receivers room that includes Kenny Golladay, Marvin Jones Jr. and Danny Amendola.
