The Detroit Lions filled two of the open spots on their roster through waivers Wednesday, Aug. 27, claiming defensive linemen Tyler Lacy and Tyrus Wheat from the Jacksonville Jaguars and Dallas Cowboys.
Lacy, a fourth-round pick in 2023, started eight games at defensive tackle for the Jaguars last season and had two tackles for loss. Wheat, who signed with Dallas as an undrafted free agent in 2023, appeared in eight games and had 14 tackles for the Cowboys in 2024.
