The first move of the Detroit Lions’ 2019 free agent frenzy was one that was not one that garnered much fanfare. They added former New England Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola on a one year deal, further strengthening their grip on being the official team of former Patriots.
Amendola was coming off of a one year sting with the Miami Dolphins where he caught 59 passes for 575 yards and a touchdown. Despite reaching the age of 33, he still was a formidable receiver out of the slot that could be a reliable short range weapon.
