The 49ers signed Lucas to a one-year deal Friday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. The 2022 seventh-round pick spent the first two seasons of his career with the Lions, but he's now found a new home in San Francisco. Lucas primarily served as a member of the special-teams units in Detroit, playing a total of 311 snaps (305 on special teams) and recording four tackles across the last two years. He's expected to compete for a similar role in San Francisco this offseason.

Lucas (illness) is practicing in full ahead of Sunday's Week 5 game against the Panthers. Lucas exited Week 4 early with the illness but appears ready to go for Sunday after the Lions played last Thursday night. The 2022 seventh-round pick has yet to see any action on defense this season but is a key cog on special teams for Detroit.

The Lions signed Lucas off their practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Lucas landed on the Lions' practice squad after failing to make it through final roster cuts following training camp. With cornerback depth a little thin, Detroit has opted to promote him for backup duties.

Lucas participated in OTAs on Monday and appears to have recovered from his hamstring injury. Lucas injured his hamstring back in December and ended up spending the remainder of the 2022 campaign on injured reserve, but he now seems to be healthy. The 26-year-old likely will be competing for a depth spot in the Lions secondary throughout the summer after logging three tackles (one solo) in six games last season.

Lucas (ankle) was listed as a full participant on the Lions' injury report Wednesday. Lucas has not played since suffering an ankle injury during Detroit's Week 7 loss to the Cowboys. However, the rookie appears to be healthy again after logging a full session during the Lions' first practice of Week 11. Expect Lucas to reprise a core special-teams role against the Giants on Sunday.
