Lions

Lions GM Brad Holmes said that WR D.J. Chark was exactly what the team was looking for at wide receiver this offseason.

โ€œThere are certain favorites that just emerge through that process and DJ was one of them,โ€ Holmes said on Sirius XM NFL Radio. โ€œItโ€™s just that he just fit what weโ€™re about. We have a lot of collaboration sessions, just coaching and personnel and getting on the same page and just to hear [receivers coach Antwaan] Randle El and [offensive coordinator] Ben Johnson just talk about what theyโ€™re looking for at the receiver position. And everybody talks about the X receiver position, but Ben is a pretty creative guy โ€” heโ€™s got no problem moving guys around. But DJ fit a lot of those qualities about having speed, explosiveness, and length. And heโ€™s a football player.โ€
