Kalif Raymond Becoming Important Player For Lions
2 years agoDetroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond has become an important player for the Lions in his last two seasons as both a receiver and punt returner. He continues to work hard this offseason and has been staying late after practices to get in extra work. Raymond had 48 catches for 576 yards and four touchdowns in 2021, and he finished with 47 receptions for 616 yards last year. Before coming to Detroit, the 28-year-old played 35 games with four teams in five seasons from 2016-20 and had just 19 catches. "'Leef' is our iron man, particularly in that room. He's a guy who's been there for us when we needed him," head coach Dan Campbell said. With Jameson Williams suspended for the first six games in 2023, Raymond will have a chance to produce as the No. 3 wideout for the Lions behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Josh Reynolds.
