The Detroit Lions are in the midst of making several difficult decisions as they must reduce their roster from 91 to 53 players by 6 p.m. ET on Sunday night. But the Lions won’t have time to rest because, in the 24 hours after cutdowns, they must also go through the league’s waiver wire process, then begin building their practice squad.
It can be a lot to keep tabs on in a short period of time, which is why we’ll organize all the Lions’ post-cuts roster moves here, in our practice squad and waiver wire tracker.

In this post, we will track the Lions’ additions to their active roster and practice squad, but also follow the destinations of the players the Lions recently cut. So if a former Lion gets claimed, you’ll see it here. If they clear waivers and return to the team, it’ll be here.
Any post-cuts additions—i.e., waiver claims or signings—will be posted here.
