Lions to host free agent Wilson

The Detroit Lions are scheduled to host free agent safety George Wilson, who was released by the Bills last week.

A two-year starter at strong safety and team captain in 2012, Wilson entered into a rotation for the second half of last season when defensive coordinator Dave Wannstedt was looking for more of a big-play spark from the position.

Detroit could lose two starting safeties in free agency. Louis Delmas is an unrestricted free agent and the free safety has been held back by injury. Strong safety Amari Spievey is a restricted free agent.

Wilson, 31, is also scheduled to visit the Tennessee Titans.
