Report: Detroit Lions signing former third-round WR

As first reported by Broncos reporter Mike Klis, the Detroit Lions are hosting free agent receiver Tre’Quan Smith for a visit on Wednesday.

UPDATE: Per NFL insider Aaron Wilson, the Lions are signing Smith.

The Lions are likely very familiar with Smith, who was a third-round pick for the New Orleans Saints in 2018. Obviously, both coach Dan Campbell and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn overlapped with Smith’s time in New Orleans, as both were on the Saints’ coaching staff for Smith’s first three seasons in the NFL.
