The Detroit Lions are in the market for a return man, and Josh Cribbs fits that bill.

The former Cleveland Browns wide receiver visited the Lions' facility today. It's at least the fourth team Cribbs has met with over the past two weeks.

Cribbs left Allen Park without signing with the Lions, but told DetroitLions.com's Tim Twentyman that Detroit is "high" on his list of possibilities.

"I want a team that's stable and a team that's on the verge and missing a piece to become a Super Bowl-caliber team," Cribbs said. "I want to be with the a team that's missing (a kick returner); that's missing a piece of the puzzle to be great."

Cribbs still is recovering from a torn meniscus. He also suffered his third career concussion last season with the Browns.

He averaged 12 yards per punt return last season and 27.4 yards per kickoff return. Cribbs has eight career kickoff returns for touchdowns.

As a receiver, Cribbs had just seven receptions for 43 yards last season. He had a career-high 41 catches for 518 yards and four touchdowns in 2011.
