Geoff Schwartz Giants restructure — Geoff Schwartz has signed a one year deal with the Lions

The Lions agreed to a one-year contract with guard Geoff Schwartz, 29, this morning, bolstering a unit that allowed 44 sacks last year, according to Detroit Free Press writer Dave Birkett.

Schwartz is expected to be a backup interior lineman for the Lions this fall but could push young guards Laken Tomlinson and Larry Warford for playing time.

This is the Lions first signing on their offensive line, so it is a good veteran signing.
