Jets linebacker Jonathan Vilma was in the Detroit area Wednesday for a physical as the Lions explored a potential trade, according to a source.
Vilma is recovering from knee surgery but hopes to be ready for training camp. He has a year left on his contract, but the Jets are allowing him to look for a new home because he doesn’t fit their 3-4 defense.
The Lions are looking for an upgrade at middle linebacker and are listening to trade offers for defensive tackle Shaun Rogers.
