Jets Trade Denzel Mims to Lions, Ending His Tenure in New York
TL;DR
The New York Jets have traded wide receiver Denzel Mims to the Detroit Lions in exchange for a conditional sixth-round pick and a seventh-round pick in 2025. Mims, a former second-round pick, struggled to make an impact with the Jets and was deemed expendable due to the team's crowded receiving corps. The Lions, looking to add depth and upside at the position, made a low-risk move by acquiring Mims, who will join a receiving corps that includes Jameson Williams, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Marvin Jones Jr., Josh Reynolds, and Kalif Raymond.
