Lions shaking up WR room: Tom Kennedy waived, Amon-Ra St. Brown’s role expanding

The Detroit Lions announced a series of moves on Monday, confirming earlier reports, comments from coach Dan Campbell, and making another move that could indicate a shift in offensive philosophy over the back half of the season.

Monday morning it was reported that the Lions would be releasing tight end Darren Fells after he requested to be let out of his contract. Campbell confirmed this at his Monday afternoon press conference, also mentioning the team would be signing rookie tight end Brock Wright from their practice squad to the active roster in a corresponding move.
