According to Matt Zenitz, the Lions are expected to sign LB Owen Pappoe to their practice squad pending a physical.
Pappoe, 26, is a former fifth-round pick by the Cardinals in the 2023 NFL Draft out of Auburn. He was entering the final year of his four-year rookie contract when Arizona made him one of its final roster cuts after this year’s preseason.
The Titans claimed him off waivers in August and re-signed him to their practice squad a month later. Tennessee cut him loose in early October.
In 2025, Pappoe appeared in all 17 games for the Cardinals and recorded 27 tackles and two pass defenses.
