Patrick reverted to the Lions' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers marked Patrick's first game action since Jan. 8, 2022. Since then, he endured back-to-back season-ending injuries that wiped away the 2022 and 2023 campaigns entirely. Patrick played a modest 39 percent snap share and turned it into two catches (on three targets) for 12 yards, a workload that he may be able to sustain in the short term with WRs Amon-Ra St. Brown (lower leg) and Isaiah Williams (abdomen) tending to injuries at the moment.

Patrick caught two of three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Buccaneers. Patrick was elevated to the active roster prior to Sunday's matchup, most notably reeling in a 10-yard catch in the second quarter. The Lions are thin at wide receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, and it's possible that Patrick could emerge as a reliable option for the team. The wide receiver was let go by the Broncos in late August, and he's looking to carve out a consistent role for himself with Detroit.

Detroit elevated Patrick from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday. After failing to make the Broncos' 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp, Patrick opted to sign with the Lions' practice squad Aug. 27. He will give Detroit depth at wide receiver after Isaiah Williams was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs due to an abdominal injury. Patrick last appeared in 16 regular-season games for the Broncos in 2021 and finished with 53 catches (on 85 targets) for 734 yards and five touchdowns.

Patrick is set to sign with Detroit's practice squad, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The Broncos released Patrick on Tuesday after giving him a lot of work with their first-team offense throughout the summer, making him a free agent and eligible to sign with any team. He could perhaps challenge Kalif Raymond for the No. 3 receiver role in Detroit at some point this fall, but a return to fantasy relevance still feels like a longshot for a 31-year-old wideout coming off major, season-ending injuries in back-to-back years (ACL tear in 2022, Achilles' rupture in 2023). Even at his best, Patrick never had more than 85 targets, 53 catches, 742 receiving yards or six TDs in any one season.

The Broncos released Patrick on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports. Despite the veteran wideout reportedly having had a solid training camp, the Broncos have parted ways with the 30-year-old, who's bouncing back from a pair of injury-plagued seasons. Patrick should catch on with another team looking for pass-catching depth in the coming days.
