Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Jackson Meeks led the team in receiving during Detroit's 17-10 preseason win over the Atlanta Falcons on Friday night. Meeks recorded three catches on four targets for 78 yards and a touchdown. An undrafted free agent out of Syracuse, Meeks logged 78 catches for 1,021 yards and seven touchdowns in his final collegiate season in 2024. The Lions have a deep wide receiver room with players like Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Tim Patrick, Kalif Raymond, and third-round rookie Isaac TeSlaa. That leaves Meeks competing for a roster spot with veterans Ronnie Bell and Tom Kennedy as well as fellow rookies Dominic Lovett and Jakobie Keeney-James. Meeks is probably still a long shot to make the team, but he may have separated himself to some degree with a strong showing on Friday.
