Detroit Lions updated Team Outlook after rookie DB Brian Branch earned the starting role at slot cornerback for the team. Branch was selected in the 2nd round out of Alabama, and will start the season in the slot despite playing safety in college. In order to put Branch at slot CB, the Lions will move Chauncey Gardner-Johnson to safety. The Lions also signed former Steelers RB Benny Snell to a deal.
