Detroit Lions Release Donovan Peoples-Jones and Kaden Davis
Roster cuts see notable wide receivers dropped as team narrows down to 53 players
- Donovan Peoples-Jones was acquired from the Cleveland Browns last year but failed to secure a prominent role.
- Kaden Davis, who impressed during rookie minicamp, also did not make the final roster.
- Head coach Dan Campbell cited the need for diverse receiver roles and special teams contributions as factors in the decisions.
- The Lions' top three receivers are Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Kalif Raymond.
- Detroit is expected to explore additional wide receiver options via trade and the waiver wire.
