Trading Jerry Jeudy to the Cleveland Browns left a slight hole at wide receiver for the Denver Broncos.
Denver replaced Jeudy with a consistent wide receiver for head coach Sean Payton. ESPN insider Adam Schefter reported on March 27 that the Broncos are signing former Detroit Lions WR Josh Reynolds.
The team will sign Reynolds to a two-year deal worth $14 million, Schefter posted to X.
Reynolds will join a Broncos’ receiving core that features Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims Jr. and Tim Patrick among others.
The seven-year veteran was a consistent playmaker for Lions’ quarterback Jared Golf and the Detroit offense. Reynolds had 40 receptions for 608 yards and five touchdowns on 64 targets in 17 games, including 13 starts last season.
Through 38 games with Detroit from 2022-23, the Texas A&M product caught 97 passes for 1,393 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Despite losing Jeudy to the Browns, Payton and the Broncos gained a reliable receiver in return ahead of the 2024 campaign.
