The Detroit Lions bolstered their wide receiver corps Tuesday, acquiring Donovan Peoples-Jones from the Cleveland Browns in exchange for a sixth-round pick in 2025.

Peoples-Jones, 24, has eight catches for 97 yards in seven games this season for the Browns, who drafted him in the sixth round of the 2020 draft.

“We feel like he fits our style,” Lions coach Dan Campbell told reporters. “He’s smart and he can play multiple positions. … We just felt like he’d be a good fit for the team and the room.”

In four seasons with Cleveland, Peoples-Jones has 117 catches for 1,837 yards and eight touchdowns. His best season was 2022, with 61 catches for 839 yards and three touchdowns.

Lions general manager Brad Holmes said he talked with Peoples-Jones, who played for the University of Michigan, earlier Tuesday and that the organization is pleased with the move.

“We’re excited about the kid,” Holmes said of Peoples-Jones. “He’s had good production in the past. He’ll be a good fit here. He’s a high-character kid. …

“He’s from Detroit. He’s a local kid. I think he’ll be very, very happy. I just talked to the kid. He’s fired up about getting this process going.”

The Lions, who beat the Las Vegas Raiders 26-14 Monday night, are off this weekend before meeting the Chargers Nov. 12 in Los Angeles.
