Who Should I Start? Marvin Jones or Andy Isabella

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. announced on Tuesday that he was stepping away from the team due to personal family matters. Jones was then released by the team. "To be brief, I am stepping away from the team to take care of personal family matters," Jones wrote in part in an Instagram post. "Although this was no easy decision, I cannot be the person/player that I need to be for this team as well as tend to my family from afar." The veteran pass-catcher did not travel with the team to Baltimore in Week 7 and had very little production to begin the season, catching five passes for 35 yards on 10 targets. The 33-year-old didn't mention anything about retirement. The former fifth-rounder has played in 151 career games and has 547 catches for 7,421 yards and 58 touchdowns. With Jones out of the picture, Kalif Raymond could have a bigger role as wideout depth in Detroit.

The Buffalo Bills re-signed wide receiver Andy Isabella to their practice squad on Wednesday, according to a league source. Isabella was cut on Tuesday with the team getting their roster down to 53 players, but he will return the very next day to serve as extra receiver depth in Buffalo for the start of the 2023 regular season. The former second-round pick of the Arizona Cardinals in 2019 out of Massachusetts spent time with both the Cardinals and Baltimore Ravens last year, catching only two passes for 21 yards in five games (zero starts). In his four NFL seasons, Isabella has 33 receptions on 54 targets for 447 yards and three touchdowns in 41 games (three starts).
