The trend toward keeping two quarterbacks has apparently extended to Detroit.

According to Field Yates of ESPN, the Lions have cut quarterback Kellen Moore and tight end Joseph Fauria.

Getting rid of Moore leaves Dan Orlovsky as the only backup to Matthew Stafford.

The Lions had kept the former Boise State quarterback around for three seasons, but he never appeared in a regular season game.

Fauria was made expendable when the Lions traded for Tim Wright recently.
