Detroit Lions general manager Martin Mayhew has insisted that he is "very confident" in Chris Houston.

The cornerback signed a five-year contract extension with the team last off-season, but his production dropped during the 2013 NFL season.

Mayhew told the Oakland Press: "I'm very confident in Chris. He's a veteran player, he knows how to play the game. We're confident in Chris's game."

Houston made a career-low 44 tackles in 2013.
