Detroit is attacking from more directions, creating cleaner paths to the quarterback and giving versatile linemen like Lacy more ways to contribute. The Detroit Lions defensive line is generating buzz through the first weeks of training camp, and the players on the field can feel the difference.

A few trades have rearranged the NFL's backup quarterback ranks, but the dust has mostly settled. From a mix of recent first-round disappointments, aging vets, and young project types, here is how the league's QB2 ranks look for the 2026 season.
When the Detroit Lions finalized their 53-man roster at the end of August, they hit the waiver wire and claimed a couple of defensive linemen. They claimed edge rusher Tyrus Wheat, who was waived by the Cowboys, and interior defensive lineman Tyler Lacy, who was waived by the Jaguars.
The post-training camp cut-down waiver wire is now closed. There's some good news all around. No recently waived Lions players were claimed, and the Lions walked out with two new edge rushers who are pretty good depth upgrades right away.
The Detroit Lions have added two new defenders off of the National Football League's waiver wire. According to the transaction wire, Detroit has added defensive tackle Tyler Lacy and defensive end Tyrus Wheat to the active roster.
