The Detroit Lions<\/a> are trading veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick<\/a> to the Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a>, a source told ESPN on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Detroit will receive a 2026 sixth-round pick in return, the source said.<\/p>\n

The trade sends Patrick to a Jacksonville wide receiver room that includes second-year wideout Brian Thomas Jr.<\/a>, two-way rookie Travis Hunter<\/a> and Dyami Brown<\/a>, who signed a one-year deal with the Jaguars this offseason.<\/p>\n

Patrick had re-signed with the Lions during the offseason after finishing with 33 receptions for 394 yards and three touchdowns in his second year with Detroit in 2024.<\/p>\n

It was a return for the 31-year-old after he missed the 2022 and 2023 seasons with knee and Achilles injuries while with the Denver Broncos<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Patrick has 176 catches for 2,403 yards and 15 touchdowns in his NFL career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Michael DiRoccoAug 27, 2025, 09:04 PM CloseMichael DiRocco is an NFL Nation reporter at ESPN and covers the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":99521,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[559],"tags":[64,63,593,85],"class_list":["post-99520","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=99520"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99520\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/99521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=99520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=99520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=99520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
