Ziggy Ansah is back from the PUP list 鈥?and has little to say about his contract situation.
The Lions removed the defensive end from the active/physically unable to perform list Monday Redskins Geron Christian Jersey , and he spoke to reporters for a bit. But Ansah didn't shed much light on how negotiations went with the team. Detroit ended up bringing him back this season on the franchise tag .
"I'm just excited that I get to play here again in Detroit for this year. The future will just take care of itself," Ansah said. "Right now, I'm just focused on this year."

The Lions begin joint workouts in California on Tuesday with the Oakland Raiders. Ansah said it will be up to the coaches how much he does this week.
Detroit plays its preseason opener at Oakland on Friday.
"Real good opportunity for us to go out and just see somebody else. Different scheme Taven Bryan Jaguars Jersey , different players, different strengths and weaknesses from that standpoint," Lions coach Matt Patricia said. "Getting a good evaluation of our guys, and also as you go through the course of the preseason, the preseason games are good and you're trying to evaluate the talent and the ability."
Patricia is entering his first season as Detroit's coach Youth Patrick Omameh Jersey , but Ansah didn't sound too concerned about changes in the defensive system.
"Every coach has his system. As a player, you've just got to be able to adapt," Ansah said. "I think we are doing a pretty good job."

Detroit drafted Ansah No. 5 overall in 2013 out of BYU. It remains to be seen how much longer he'll be with the Lions, and he wouldn't say how close the sides were to reaching a long-term deal.
"This is, like Terrell Edmunds Steelers Jersey , over with. I'm just happy to be here. That's what's most important," he said.
The Atlanta Falcons agreed to a five-year, $75 million contract extension with left tackle Jake Matthews on Friday.
The 26-year-old Matthews was the No. 6 overall pick in the 2014 draft. He has started in each of his 63 games while serving the key role of protecting quarterback Matt Ryan.
”I love playing here and love the city and I’m blessed and humbled,” Matthews said.
The deal is through the 2023 season and comes one day after the team agreed on a contract ”adjustment” with wide receiver Julio Jones. The Falcons already agreed to a five-year, $150 million extension with quarterback Matt Ryan this offseason.
General manager Thomas Dimitroff says the agreement with Jones enabled the team to continue efforts to reach new deals with Matthews Authentic Tremaine Edmunds Jersey , defensive tackle Grady Jarrett and safety Ricardo Allen. The Falcons promised to renegotiate Jones’ deal following the season.
Coach Dan Quinn said he was ”really pumped” to have Matthews as a key starter on the offensive line for an additional five years.
