The Jaguars preferred to drop a fortune on Christian Kirk rather than keep DJ Chark. It was, however, cheaper.
ESPN announces that the receiver has signed up with the Lions. The contract is rather small, with only 1 year of commitment and 12 million dollars at the most.
The problem for Chark was surely the injury that ended his 2021 season in week 4. He then broke his ankle. Before that, he had caught 7 balls for 154 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Selected in the second round of the 2018 Draft, the receiver was selected for the Pro Bowl in 2019. In Detroit, he will have a chance to be the leader of the group of receivers. The opportunity to raise his rating soaring to better capitalize in a year, when he will be free again?
