Detroit Lions to waive WR Denzel Mims with injury designation

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Detroit Lions are waiving receiver Denzel Mims with an injury designation.

Detroit traded for Mims from the New York Jets a month ago in the hopes to build up their receiver depth. Though the Lions have their top four settled in Amon-Ra St. Brown, Kalif Raymond, Josh Reynolds, and Marvin Jones Jr., they could use some depth while Jameson Williams is serving a six-game suspension for breaking the league’s gambling policy.

Unfortunately, Mims suffered an injury a couple weeks ago in camp.
