Ex-Lions wideout joins the Broncos practice squad

Kaden Davis spent the summer efforting to make the Detroit Lions as the No. 4 wide receiver. Davis had some impressive moments in the preseason but ultimately wound up on the wrong side of the roster cutdowns.

Davis, 25, was not signed to the Lions practice squad after being released. He’s now found his way back to Denver, where Davis spent parts of two prior seasons on the Broncos practice squad. Per his agent, Davis is returning to the Broncos practice squad.

The net effect of the move is an indirect WR swap between the two teams. Detroit added ex-Broncos wideout Tim Patrick to the Lions practice squad right after the recent roster cutdown deadline.
