Majkowski To Detroit

Compiled From Wire Services

The Detroit Lions signed unrestricted free-agent quarterbacks Don Majkowski and Don Hollas, the team said.

The two will back up Scott Mitchell.

Majkowski, who led the NFL in passing in 1989, played the last two years with Indianapolis, mostly as a backup.

Hollas played the past four seasons with Cincinnati.

Corey Widmer, a part-time starter at middle linebacker last year, has signed again with the New York Giants. The 6-foot-3-inch, 250-pound Widmer was an unrestricted free agent.

The Indianapolis Colts matched a three-year contract the NFL expansion Carolina Panthers offered to safety Jason Belser, an restricted free agent.
