Waived by Lions
Gooden was waived by the Lions on Monday, Michael Rothstein of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Lions added Gooden last week due to several injuries among their linebackers. The team likely feels confident with their health at the position going forward, which explains their decision to waive Gooden.
