Five players to watch in Detroit Lions’ final preseason game

There hasn’t been a player this year who’s made a name for himself more than wide receiver Tom Kennedy.

The former undrafted free agent is now in his fourth preseason with Detroit and has put up impressive numbers over the past two games. Kennedy has 13 receptions for 128 yards and two touchdowns.

Detroit’s wide receiver room is just about set in stone with Amon-Ra St. Brown, DJ Chark, Josh Reynolds, and Kalil Raymond sitting at the top of the depth chart. As of now, Kennedy is in competition with Quintez Cephus and Trinity Benson for just one or two spots on the roster.

Those final spots will not just be determined by performance on offense, but the ability to contribute on special teams. Kennedy has been used by the Lions as a return specialist in the past and recently as a defender on punts and kickoffs.
