Tim Patrick Joins Lions Practice Squad

The Detroit Lions have signed veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick to their practice squad after he was released by the Denver Broncos. Patrick, who has struggled with injuries over the past two seasons, including a torn ACL and Achilles, aims to secure a spot on the active roster as he fully integrates into the Lions' offense. The signing has generated excitement among fans and pundits, who believe Patrick could make a significant impact if he stays healthy. In his previous four seasons with the Broncos, Patrick recorded 143 receptions for 2,009 yards and 12 touchdowns, showcasing his potential as a reliable target. The Lions, needing extra depth at wide receiver, view Patrick as a valuable addition to complement their existing roster. This move also reflects the Broncos' shift towards a younger receiving core, having released Patrick after attempting to trade him without success.
