The Detroit Lions had a wide receiver issue in 2021. After letting their three starters walk in free agency, Lions general manager Brad Holmes’ efforts to replace them were not successful. Free agent additions Breshad Perriman and Tyrell Williams fizzled out due to training camp struggles and a concussion, respectively. And while the Lions eventually got some promising play from guys like Quintez Cephus, Kalif Raymond, and especially rookie Amon-Ra St. Brown, they will undoubtedly enter the offseason looking to upgrade the position.
Lions wide receivers coach Antwaan Randle El is hoping the Lions go super aggressive in addressing the position, as he told reporters on Thursday.
