Tom Kennedy ‘won’t go away’ as Lions’ WR battle heats up

There is little question that the Detroit Lions’ top four spots at wide receiver are relatively set in stone for the 53-man roster. DJ Chark, Josh Reynolds, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Kalif Raymond are all considered players who will not only make the roster, but will significantly contribute this year. Add in first-round pick Jameson Williams, who is expected to miss at least the first four games of the season on the Non-Football Injury list, and this receiving corps has the looks of a deep, strong unit.

Going into camp, reserves Quintez Cephus and Trinity Benson looked like the prime candidates for the remaining one or two reserve jobs, and both looked great in early practices.
