2. I already miss Jrey. These guys were dawgs and we will not forget the impact they had

3. Reynolds was the quiet to Williams loud.

   Outside of NFCCG Reynolds always seemed to come up big or be the go to for Goff.

4. I’ll miss Josh a lot

5. Gonna miss Jrey but as a Lions fan living in Denver – now I have a reason to watch these Bronco’s games!

6. The foundation is Sheila, Brad, Spielman, and Dan.

   Edit to add Spielman.

7. I think this provides them with an opportunity to get better. No offense to Josh, but I don’t think he got regular separation on his routes. And 14M is a lot for the role we had him in. Glad he got his money through. Let’s see how the lions do in the draft!

8. Reynolds had a huge impact on that 2021 team after the trade. Amon Ra broke out right after

9. They were never the foundation

10. I just rewatched the 0-10-1 Lions get MCDC’s first win on NFL Network the other day, and they were talking about how he just joined the team and was already a huge contributor. I think he helped Goff become comfortable in a Lions uniform, and he will be missed. Hopefully JPJ can step up and/or Brad can find a stud in the draft.

11. i hope we can all look back on this a year removed knowing we made the right decision just like we did moving on from jamaal… but man josh was always kind of the silent killer last season. came up huge on so many crucial downs for us and that made the drops against sf more excusable imo. dude is a baller, glad he’s getting paid… i’ll be rooting for him in denver

12. I wish them both nothing but the best, Great that JR got paid pretty well, I only wished we had been able to keep him around.

13. Much respect to the both of them!!! Jamaal just seems like one of those goofball crazy friends off the field!!! Renyolds is a top tier receiver!!

14. Am I the only one who sees Keegan-Michael Key every time JR is shown with his helmet off?

    

15. Man I’m sure Lions offered a solid 2 years at $10M… he gonna chase that extra $4M only to not get another contract with no QB to throw him the ball 😔😔 short term vision chasing the bag may not always serve you best in long run

16. I’m reading some hateful comments about JRey on other message boards that are straight up nauseating. Until the emergence of St.Brown, JRey was the only receiver Goff could depend on. Full stop. Professional and clutch, don’t let the NFCCG be the defintition of JRey. How about the defense??? Glad he is getting his bag but Payton has a short fuse. I guess the signing of DPJ was the writing on the wall. He will be sorely missed.

17. He will be missed, but he definitely needed to go to unlock Jamo. Goff had a good connection with him so it would have always been troublesome because there would be production but unused potential possible

18. J’dinkalage nooooo

19. Needs to be said Reynolds>>>>>>>Jeudy

    Especially from a $$$ value standpoint considering what they both got contract wise.
