Detroit Lions 53-Man Roster 2025 finally released (50 already sure) ahead of the NFL’s cutdown deadline.

The anticipation has concluded. In anticipation of the NFL’s roster reduction deadline, the Detroit Lions have officially reduced their roster to 53 players (actually 50 players at this time). As the team prepares for its first matchup against the Green Bay Packers in Week 1, general manager Brad Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell have established their core.

The Lions’ personnel decisions this year were rife with intrigue, ranging from the competition for a spot at wide receiver and linebacker to the decision to retain two or three quarterbacks. In the end, Detroit’s roster was finalized with a combination of returning veterans, exciting newcomers, and a few unexpected cuts.
