Outlook for 2015

Haggins is a long shot to make the 53-man roster considering he only joined the Lions after their rookie minicamp. More than anything, that's a sign that he's probably just going to be a camp body. Then again, there have been camp bodies in the past who have come out of nowhere to stick around, so he should at least have a shot at earning a spot on the practice squad this summer.
