The Detroit Lions have announced that wide receiver Kevin Ogletree has joined the team.

The 26-year-old had been a free agent following his release from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers earlier this week.

In his four games for the NFC South side this season, Ogletree had eight receptions for 70 yards and a touchdown.

The Lions are currently without Nate Burleson, who has a broken arm, and Patrick Edwards, who is recovering from an ankle injury.
