Lions work out two quarterbacks ahead of Thanksgiving Day game

The Lions’ quarterbacks are both ailing, so Detroit brought in a pair of signal-callers for auditions on Tuesday. Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports (via Twitter) that Detroit worked out Joe Callahan and Taryn Christion. Callahan, 26, has spent time with six organizations (not including two stints with the Packers) since entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 2016. The Wesley (Delaware) product appeared in a single game for the Packers during the 2017 season, completing five of his seven pass attempts for 11 yards. Callahan was waived by the Ravens at the end of the 2019 preseason, and he was later selected by the Seattle Dragons in the XFL Draft. Christion, an undrafted rookie out of South Dakota State, spent the preseason with the Cowboys. He actually had a solid outing during Dallas' preseason finale vs. the Buccaneers, completing 11 of his 17 attempts for 142 yards, one touchdown and one interception. The 22-year-old spent time on the Steelers' practice squad earlier this season. Th
