Perhaps one reason for their success is that the Lions group of wide receivers are a close-knit bunch. This week they’re getting a little more bonding time in Honolulu courtesy of Calvin Johnson.

Johnson was voted to the Pro Bowl, but won’t play because of a sore Achilles. Still he went to Hawaii and brought his wide receiving teammates with him, on a private jet no less. Johnson is picking up the tab for the group. What an incredibly nice gesture.

The photos from Hawaii (via Twitter) of the gang on scooters make it look like they may be having a little fun.

While Calvin’s a little on the quiet side, Nate Burleson more than makes up for it. Follow their adventures on Twitter @Nate13Burleson.
