Lions Skip Waiver Wire Again | Detroit Lions News

The Detroit Lions made a bold move this offseason by completely skipping the waiver wire for the second straight year under Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell—no claims, no pickups, not even one of their own waived players getting scooped up. It’s a stark departure from past habits, where they’ve routinely used the wire to bolster depth, like grabbing Khadarel Hodge, Austin Seibert, Benito Jones, Trevor Nowaske, and Tyler Lacy. While teams like the Eagles, Chiefs, and Cowboys were busy claiming players—with the Dolphins leading the pack at seven picks—the Lions are now shifting focus to their practice squad, rumored to be eyeing receiver Lucky Jackson’s return. This silence speaks volumes: either they’re confident in their current roster or rethinking how they build depth this season.
