Denver inking former Lions wide receiver Reynolds

Free agent WR Josh Reynolds is inking a 2-year contract worth up to 14 million dollars with the Denver Broncos.

Josh’s addition comes after Denver traded WR Jerry Jeudy to the Browns at the beginning of March. He joins a depth chart that features Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims Jr., and Tim Patrick.

Reynolds was a huge part of the Lions’ receiving corps as a stable target for QB Jared Goff over the last several campaigns. In the past season, Josh had 608 yards on 40 catches with 5 TDs.

At the league’s annual meetings these days in Orlando, Detroit GM Brad Holmes shared that he hoped to re-ink the wide receiver.

“Reynolds is 1 that was part of the original [free agent] plans,” the Lions general manager admitted. “Still discussing, we’ll just kind of see where that goes. But that’s really the only 1 that is still available that we had originally planned to re-sign.”
