Did a search.. nothing else came up.
Kitna signs with lions

Jon Kitna made the first move Tuesday for what will be a busy day for NFL quarterbacks by agreeing to a four-year deal with the Detroit Lions.

Terms of the four-year contract weren't available, Kitna visited the Jets and Lions and was under consideration by the Ravens. He sensed something was going to happen with another team over the weekend when he told the Bengals he would not be returning.

In response, the Bengals brought in Rams quarterback Jamie Martin for a visit.

Kitna's decision could heat up talks between the Redskins and the Jets for Redskins quarterback Patrick Ramsey. The Redskins want to move Ramsey on Tuesday in a trade. Detroit, the Jets and the Dolphins were the teams talking to the Redskins.

I hope our secondary really is as good as people hope.

^ I also think Kitna will be a good fit for the Lions.

My roomate is a huge Lions fan and he thinks Kitna will be the starter at the beginning of the 06 season.( although Millen said Harrington would be, but this was before they picked up Kitna)
