Scott Daly is back for a second season as the Detroit Lions’ long snapper. Daly has signed his exclusive rights free agent (ERFA) tender offer from the team.
Daly’s agent, Paul Sheehy, revealed the news of the signing, which was expected. The terms of the ERFA tender mean Daly will earn the veteran league minimum for 2022.
Daly had a strong first season in Detroit. He did not have a single errant snap in either punts or placekicks all year. The 28-year-old did register one tackle in coverage.
He had major shoes to fill in taking over for Don Muhlbach, who had been the team’s long snapper since 2004. Muhlbach retired during training camp and joined the Lions as a special assistant.
