The Detroit Lions are moving aggressively forward in their efforts to trade linebacker Jamie Collins, who appears to have played his last game in Detroit.
Lions coach Dan Campbell said Thursday that Collins will be away from the team while trade talks are ongoing and he hopes a deal is in place "sooner rather than later."
"We’ll see where it goes," Campbell said. "There again, we’re just letting this thing play out right now. We’ve got suitors right now. So certainly we’re hoping to have this done sooner than later, but we’re not necessarily putting a timetable on it either.
