The Detroit Lions have agreed to terms with cornerback Amari Spievey, their third-round pick from Iowa.

The team confirmed the agreement Wednesday without disclosing terms.

Amari, the 66th selection overall, was an All-Big Ten player who will get a chance to play immediately on a team that lacks cornerbacks.

Spievey was a star running back in Middleton, Conn., who was switched to defense as a freshman at Iowa. He ended up spending a season at Iowa Central Community College before going back to play for the Hawkeyes.
