Allen Park — Detroit Lions defensive tackle Isaiah Buggs sparked a wave of speculation Sunday evening with a cryptic posting on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.

"I'm good, but just know situations change," Buggs wrote. "Y'all (going to) see."

The message, coinciding with the removal of most references to the Lions on his social media profiles, sparked some to believe he might have been cut or traded. With no immediate follow-up, rumors spiraled out of control on social media that the Lions were nearing a deal for a superstar player such as Tampa Bay's Mike Evans or Kansas City defensive tackle Chris Jones, who is currently holding out.
