General manager Bob Quinn drafted him in the 2017 NFL draft. Roberts has just struggled to see the field in his time with Detroit.
Now with a new and improved tight end group including Jesse James and first-round pick T.J. Hockenson, it would be even harder for Roberts to see any playing time with the Lions.
Detroit received a future draft pick from the Patriots, according to the Detroit News.
