Detroit -- Kicker Dave Rayner is joining the Detroit Lions following Jason Hanson's injury.
Rayner signed with the Lions on Tuesday, two days after Hanson hurt his right knee in a 23-20 overtime loss to the New York Jets.
The Lions confirmed the signing Tuesday night. They also released cornerback Jonathan Wade and center Cody Wallace and announced cornerback Jack Williams will stay on the reserve-physically unable to perform list for the rest of the season.
Rayner was drafted in 2005 by Indianapolis. He's played for five NFL teams, not including the Lions. He was released by Cincinnati in September.
Wade started the first four games of the season but was a reserve for the last four.
