Jets trade Denzel Mims to Lions, addressing WR depth amidst suspensions

The New York Jets have reportedly traded wide receiver Denzel Mims, a former second-round pick, to the Detroit Lions along with a 2025 seventh-round pick in exchange for a conditional 2025 sixth-rounder. Mims, who struggled to make an impact with the Jets, will join the Lions, who needed depth at the wide receiver position due to suspensions. Despite his draft pedigree, expectations for Mims remain low, but at 25 years old with good size and speed, he still has potential. This trade adds to the unfortunate history of Baylor wide receivers in the NFL, as none of them have made a Pro Bowl or posted a 1,000-yard season.
