Mikhael Ricks

Ricks got banged up in 2003 and lost playing time to Casey FitzSimmons, but still managed to improve his numbers by 10 catches and 95 yards as the result of injuries at wideout. Ricks was slated to be the Lions’ primary receiving tight end again this year, but he did not participate in the Lions’ voluntary workout in June and was subsequently let go. Signed by the Jets in July, he'll have Anthony Becht and Chris Baker to contend with, but with his receiving ability, he could become a sleeper should he develop good chemistry with Chad Pennington.
