The Detroit Lions are strongly considering making a trade with the Seattle Seahawks for restricted free-agent guard Rob Sims, a league source has told NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora.
Sims is drawing interest from several teams, and could be signed to an offer sheet. He has a fourth-round tender. At this point, a return to Seattle seems unlikely.
Chicago is another team mulling Sims.
Detroit has been one of the most active clubs this offseason, in free agency and exploring many trade options, including possibly dealing out of the second overall pick. The team also is considering signing Adam “Pacman” Jones and also considering an offer sheet for New Orleans restricted free agent Anthony Hargrove.
