Walker, a third-round selection, was a four-year starter at Louisiana-Lafayette. He played safety as a freshman before the team switched him to cornerback.

The 6-foot-2, 200-pound Walker led the team in tackles last season with 97, including 3.5 tackles for loss. He also had two of his eight career interceptions in 2017.

In other moves Tuesday, the Lions claimed offensive lineman Adam Bisnowaty off waivers from the New York Giants. A four-year starter in college at Pittsburgh, Bisnowaty appeared in only one game with New York last season as a starter.
