Allen Park — For Jace Billingsley, he expects his second go-round to be less stressful than the first.

An undrafted rookie last year, the Detroit Lions receiver impressed with his playmaking ability during his first preseason, leaving him on the cusp of winning a job. But a team-leading 12 catches for 146 yards and two scores wasn’t enough as the Lions opted to carry just four receivers into the regular season.

This year, with cuts coming this weekend, the shifty slot receiver out of Eastern Oregon has put himself in position to make the team once again.
