Cornerback Maurice Leggett will apparently be reunited with Gunther Cunningham after agreeing to a deal with the Lions.

Leggett played for Cunningham, the Lions defensive coordinator, when both were with the Chiefs.

Leggett confirmed the deal with a tweet explaining that Moe is on his way to “Mo Town.”

The 24-year-old cornerback, who is 5-foot-11 and 188 pounds, played the last three seasons in Kansas City after being signed as an undrafted free agent out of Valdosta State. He was the Chiefs’ rookie of the year in 2008 when Cunningham was the defensive coordinator.
