Lions Bring Back Cut Tight End | Detroit Lions News

NFL roster cuts just wrapped up, and the Detroit Lions pulled off a surprise move: they cut wide receiver Greg Dortch but brought back tight end Tyler Conklin — who was released just days earlier. A fifth-round pick in 2018, Conklin has racked up 270 catches for 2,600+ yards and 11 TDs across 127 games, starting 69. Now signed as the fourth tight end behind starters Sam LaPorta and Brock Wright, he’ll battle Jackson Meeks for depth role — and could be a key contributor if needed.
