Lions Waive TE Jackson Meeks

The Lions needed a roster spot after trading for Jets S Andre Cisco.

Meeks, 23, signed with the Lions as an undrafted free agent out of Syracuse following the 2025 draft. He was among the final roster cuts but re-signed to the practice squad before being elevated three times and signing a futures deal after the year.

Meeks then made the 53-man roster coming out of camp this year.

In 2026, Meeks has appeared in four games for the Lions and caught one pass for eight yards.
