The Jacksonville Jaguars are reportedly interested in trading with the Detroit Lions for the rights to retired wide receiver Calvin Johnson, according to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen who appeared on the Monday edition of the Mike & Mike radio show.
With Allen Robinson out for the season after an injury he sustained in Week 1, the Jaguars could be looking to upgrade their receiving corps for an eventual playoff run this January (oh) and important divisional matchups in December against the Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans.
This should come as a surprise to anyone paying attention to Johnson after his retirement who has said repeatedly that he’s happy being retired and has no interest in ever making a return.
