Allen Park — The Detroit Lions rewarded three rookie minicamp tryout participants with roster spots on Tuesday, signing tight Luke Deal, wide receiver Malik Taylor and defensive lineman Raequan Williams. Deal is the only rookie from that group. The 6-foot-5, 247-pounder played six seasons at Auburn, where he thrived as a blocker, particularly in pass protection.
