NFL’s Lions claim Greenwood off waivers

The Detroit Lions have claimed a Kingston, Ontario player after being released from the Kansas City Chiefs a day earlier.

Cory Greenwood was claimed off of waivers by the Lions.  Yesterday, he was one of four players let go by the Chiefs.  The 6’2, 235 pound special team/defensive player spent three seasons with the team.  In 48 games with the Chiefs, Greenwood registered 34 tackles and a fumble recovery on special teams while on the defensive side of the ball, he racked up eight tackles – including seven solo tackles.

The Canadian player signed with the Chiefs as a free agent in 2010.   Previous to the Chiefs, Greenwood suited up for CIS squad, the Concordia Stingers and his high school team, the Regiopolis-Notre Dame Panthers of the Kingston Area Secondary Schools Athletic Association (KASSAA).
