Among the biggest areas that national pundits believe the Detroit Lions can improve in is at wide receiver.

General manager Brad Holmes has been quiet at the position, allowing Josh Reynolds to sign with the Denver Broncos while re-signing Donovan Peoples-Jones to a one-year deal.

The Lions did not target a wideout in the draft, and have yet to make a big addition at the position.

However, the team could still pull off a stunner this offseason.

Tee Higgins, who has emerged as a top wideout for the Cincinnati Bengals, has requested a trade, and remains without a long-term contract.

As a result, the Lions were recently named amongst five teams that could trade for Higgins by Bleacher Report’s Maurice Morton. In the hypothetical trade, the Lions would acquire Higgins in exchange for 2025 second-and-fourth-round picks.

“The Detroit Lions shouldn’t take their foot off the gas after an appearance in the NFC Championship Game, not with $31 million in cap space,” Morton wrote.

“They have just opened their Super Bowl window with a top-five scoring offense.

Perhaps they can advance a little further in the playoffs with, arguably, the NFL’s best passing offense.

Detroit’s opponents would have a difficult task in countering the No. 2 aerial attack from the previous year plus Higgins, who would also bolster a shallow receiver group.”
