The Detroit Lions have agreed to terms with first-round running back Jahvid Best, Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.com reports.

Florio reports the five-year deal is worth $9.8 million dollars.

The 5-10, 199-pound Best ran for 2,668 yards and 29 touchdowns during his three seasons at Cal, adding 62 receptions for 533 yards and 5 touchdowns as a receiver out of the backfield.

Best also excelled in the return game, averaging 26.4 yards on 32 kick returns.

Best battled hip, foot, and elbow injuries during his college career, which ended after he sustained a concussion against Oregon State, causing him to miss the final five games the Bears' season, including their bowl game.

At the 2010 Scouting Combine, Best ran a blazing 4.34 in the 40-yard dash, solidfying his status as a late first/early-second round selection. The Lions traded back up in to the first round with NFC North-rival Minnesota to select Best, who is expected to be a multi-purpose threat in Scott Linehan's offense.

With Best signed, the Lions' full attention will turn to signing second overall pick Ndamukong Suh.
