Lions general manager Martin Mayhew said that the team would "love" to bring back guard Rob Sims, per the Detroit News.

"We've been in contact with Rob, and we've had some dialogue with him about a contract," Mayhew told local reporters at the NFL annual meetings at the Arizona Biltmore resort.

Sims came out and stated that the feeling is mutual about returning to the team.

"We would love to be back," Sims said in February, speaking about his wife. "We built a life here…. We want to be able to finish our work here that we started with this. We have businesses here. We've played good ball here.

"If (my career) stopped tomorrow, Detroit would have a huge place in my heart because of the things we've been able to do here. We would love to finish what we started."

The 31-year-old is entering his 10th season in the NFL, five of which have been with the Lions.
