The midseason trade acquisition from the previous season is returning to the Detroit Lions.
Wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones and the Lions agreed to a one-year contract for up to $2 million on Saturday, according to Bleacher Report.
Peoples-Jones played eight games with the Lions last season, catching five catches for 58 yards.
Peoples-Jones was acquired by the Lions for a 2025 fifth-round pick during the trade deadline of the previous year from the Cleveland Browns.

Michigan and Detroit Cass Tech product Peoples-Jones was the Lions’ sixth receiver last season, but he may rise up the depth chart this year.
Josh Reynolds is a free agent without restrictions. He was the Lions’ No. 2 and 3 receiver in the previous campaign.
Leading receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Kalif Raymond, and Antoine Green are all back for the Lions from the previous campaign. They might still try to address the draft stance.
