Dortch reunites with Petzing; return game could be key value add for Lions.

Dortch signed with Detroit on a $1.4 million contract after three seasons with Arizona OC Drew Petzing. In 2025 with the Cardinals, Petzing got Dortch 29 catches on 33 targets for 206 yards and three touchdowns, plus 30 kick returns for 796 yards (26.5 yards per return) and 16 punt returns for 185 yards. Head coach Dan Campbell emphasized Dortch's return game upside and flexibility to play Z or F receiver, noting the Lions already have three strong primary receivers (Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Jahmyr Gibbs) and need to find where Dortch fits best.
