Allen Park — Shortly after DJ Chark signed with the Lions, he made it clear he was eager to escape the culture in Jacksonville for the one being cultivated in Detroit under coach Dan Campbell.
As it turns out, the veteran wide receiver is also eager to showcase a wider skill set in his new home.
Possessing an impressive combination of size and speed at 6-foot-4 with a 4.34-second 40-yard dash, Chark said he often felt he was put in a box by Jacksonville and was frequently asked to run the same handful of vertical routes, serving as both a deep threat and a safety-occupying decoy.
