Denzel Mims’ brief time is almost up in Detroit.
Less than a month after swinging a trade with the New York Jets to acquire the 25-year-old receiver, the Lions have decided to place Mims on waivers with an injury designation, according to the NFL Network. They'll replace him on the roster by signing former Los Angeles Chargers receiver Jason Moore, per NFL insider Aaron Wilson.
Mims, a 2020 second-round pick who spent his first three NFL seasons with the Jets, has missed the last two weeks in training camp due to ankle and calf injuries.
