Lions Finally Make WR Additions After NFL Draft Surprise: Reports

Some NFL mock drafts predicted the Detroit Lions to select a wide receiver in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft. Instead, the Lions didn’t add any wide receivers with their six choices in the draft this spring. But following that surprise, Detroit made receiver additions by signing two undrafted wideouts — Jalon Calhoun and Isaiah Williams.

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported the Lions signed Williams, who is from Illinois, to a $225,000 base salary guaranteed. That included a $15,000 signing bonus.
