A former first-round pick, Ebron caught 53 passes for 574 yards and four touchdowns last season. He spent much of his tenure in Detroit struggling with drops and has never been a fan favorite, admitting that he’s struggled mentally as well. He’s not a bad player, and a change of scenery will probably benefit all involved. He is, after all, still only 24, and there’s talent there.
