The Detroit Lions training camp and preseason are over; now comes the hard part. Trying to file the roster down from 90 players to 53. That’s going to mean that there’s going to be some hard cuts and maybe some that Lions fans didn’t see coming. They’re also going to happen fast, and there’s a good chance you’re going to miss them. Here we’ll keep track of the Lions roster for you and continuously update this tracker anytime a cut happens. At the bottom of the page, we’ll have every player on the roster listed by position and cross out the cut players so you can see who is left.

Players the Lions have released:

Released players are players with four or more accrued seasons. They can sign wherever they want once they’re released.


Players the Lions have waived

Waived players are players with less than four accrued seasons. They are subject to waivers, and teams can opt to claim them. If they pass through waivers, they can then sign wherever they want.
