Lions Intend To Sign TE Tony Scheffler To A New Deal Eventually

According to a source close to the situation, the Detroit Lions plan to make tight end Tony Scheffler a big part of their offense, not only for this season but for many years beyond. Scheffler will be used as a tight end and as a third receiver, similar to how the Indianapolis Colts use Dallas Clark. If the offense clicks like the coaching staff hopes, the Lions are expected to approach Scheffler during the season about signing a long-term deal to stay in Detroit.
