Overview
- Detroit re-signed Jackson Meeks to its practice squad, a transaction recorded in the NFL Transactions Log.
- The team waived Meeks two days earlier to make room on the active roster for veteran safety Andre Cisco, who was acquired from the New York Jets near the trade deadline.
- Meeks joined Detroit as an undrafted free agent out of Syracuse in 2025 and converted from wide receiver into a hybrid tight end while earning a spot on the Lions’ initial 53-man roster.
- Meeks has limited regular-season stats with one reception for eight yards, and his practice-squad signing keeps a player familiar with the offense available for elevation if the Lions need him.
- Using the practice squad lets Detroit retain developmental offensive depth without occupying an active roster spot as the team travels for its Week 10 game in Germany.
