Lions Practice Squad Rebuild | Detroit Lions News

The Detroit Lions are revving up their practice squad with a familiar cast returning, including QB Luke Altmyer and receiver Tom Kennedy—both signed after missing the 53-man roster. Altmyer battled for backup QB duties but fell short to Josh Dobbs, while Kennedy, a veteran of the practice squad since 2019, brings return versatility as the team eyes their opener against the Saints. Joining them are Lucky Jackson (preseason receiving leader), Nick Whiteside (who saw game time last year), and Tyre West (a seventh-round pick). With two spots still open, this group is poised to sharpen behind the scenes—and could be called up at any moment.
