The Detroit Lions came into the week with a chance to make a few additions along the defensive line given their roster situation, and didn't hesitate to strike with one intriguing move.
After cuts, the franchise moved to sign defensive tackle Tyler Lacy of the Jackasonville Jaguars and defensive end Tyrus Wheat, formally of the Dallas Cowboys. Wheat had made the Cowboys in 2023 as an undrafted free agent, and looked on track to crack the roster again. Instead, he heads to Detroit after he failed to make the Cowboys in 2025.
With him, Wheat will bring some interesting potential given his abiities as a pass rusher.
