Lions: Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson Not Only Players with Uncertain Futures
By Zac Snyder
While so much has been speculated about the futures of Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson with the Detroit Lions, there are other players who could be playing their final games as Lions.

Uncertainty surrounds the Detroit Lions following the firing of Martin Mayhew as general manager and Tom Lewand as president of the Lions. That uncertainty has led many to speculate about the futures of quarterback Matthew Stafford and wide receiver Calvin Johnson.
While Stafford and Johnson are the biggest names, they are far from the only Lions who face uncertain futures beyond this season. Players like Jason Jones and Haloti Ngata could be done as Lions after this season but they have expiring contracts.
I see four Lions under contract for next season who are even more likely, or at least as likely, to be playing out their final games as Lions than Stafford and Johnson.
Can you guess who they are?
