Roy Williams and a Lions 7th round pick have been traded to the Dallas Cowboys for a 1st, 3rd, and 6th round pick.  Nice move for the Lions to get quite a bit for a guy whose contract was up at the end of the year.  It was pretty much a given he wasn’t going to stay or be franchised by the Leos when we’ve already got a super fancy number one receiver in Calvin Johnson.

Also, Jon Kitna was placed on the injured reserve list with a bad back, ending his season, and the Kitna era in Detroit.  According to WDFN, if he wants to play again this season, he’ll have to be cut and catch on elsewhere.  Let the Orlovsky/Stanton era begin!!  Ahem.
