The Detroit Lions are parting ways with one of their most intriguing members of the undrafted rookie class. Detroit will waive wide receiver and return specialist Kalil Pimpleton in the roster cutdown from 80 to 53 players.
Pimpleton showed some real vitality as a nifty and speedy receiving option out of the slot. He earned some high reps early in camp as both a punt return and kick return option, but the arrival of former USFL standout Maurice Alexander effectively ended Pimpleton’s chances of sticking strictly as a return man.
