After expressing initial interest, should the Lions sign free agent WR Tyler Boyd?

The Detroit Lions are reportedly one of at least five teams who have expressed interest in free agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd, per The Athletic. The 30-year-old receiver is unlikely to return to a very crowded wide receiver room in Cincinnati, where the Bengals will prioritize retaining their younger wide receiver duo of Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Boyd, on the other hand, appears to be ending an eight-year tenure in Cincinnati, a stretch in which he was consistently productive in spite of many up-and-down years by the team.

Boyd has a somewhat similar profile to Josh Reynolds, both in build and in play style.
