Lions among teams expressing interest with the Chiefs in a L’Jarius Sneed trade, per USA TODAY

It’s all just talk now, but there is more evidence that there could be some fire to the trade smoke involving the Detroit Lions and Kansas City Chiefs.

USA TODAY confirmed the Lions are among a handful of teams that have expressed interest with the Chiefs in a potential trade for cornerback L’Jarius Sneed.

A person with direct knowledge of the situation told USA TODAY Sports that the Minnesota Vikings, Indianapolis Colts, Tennessee Titans, New England Patriots, Detroit Lions, Atlanta Falcons and Jacksonville Jaguars have expressed interest in the Chiefs corner.

The Chiefs placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on Sneed, which allows for the top-notch corner to work out a trade to another team.
