Jax Jaguars to Trade for Detroit Lions' Wide Receiver Tim Patrick
Tim Patrick, a 6-foot-5 receiver known for strong run-blocking, joins Jaguars as a veteran addition after recovering from two major injuries, contributing 33 receptions last season.
- The Jacksonville Jaguars traded a 2026 sixth-round draft pick to the Detroit Lions to acquire Tim Patrick, an experienced wideout, on Wednesday.
- The trade followed Detroit cutting its roster to 50 players and finding Isaac TeSlaa ready to take a bigger role, making Patrick expendable.
- Standing 6-foot-5 and hailing from San Diego, Patrick missed the 2022 and 2023 seasons due to ACL and Achilles injuries but made a strong comeback last year, recording 33 catches, nearly 400 receiving yards, and scoring three times.
- Over the course of five NFL seasons, he has accumulated 176 catches, 2,403 receiving yards, and 15 touchdown receptions, while also being recognized last season as one of the top run-blocking wide receivers in the league.
- The acquisition bolsters the Jaguars' receiver group with additional size and blocking strength alongside key contributors such as the young second-year wideout Brian Thomas Jr., versatile rookie Travis Hunter, and offseason signing Dyami Brown.
