Aaron Dobson’s stint as a Lion was a short one.
The Lions, who signed Dobson on Tuesday, announced that they waived him today.
With two linebackers, DeAndre Levy and Antwione Williams, ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Packers, the Lions had a bigger need at that position. So they signed linebacker Zaviar Gooden to the active roster from the practice squad and waived Dobson to create a roster spot for Gooden.
Dobson, the former Patriots receiver, could return to Detroit once the Lions have a spot for him on their roster.
