The Detroit Lions have waived wide receiver Jackson Meeks, a player described as a fan favorite, following a trade involving safety Andre Cisco, according to a report from The Detroit News on Monday.
The move comes as the Lions continue to reshape their roster ahead of the 2026 NFL season. Meeks, who had garnered support from the Detroit fanbase, was let go in the wake of the Cisco acquisition, which brought the safety to the team via trade.
Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reported the transaction on November 9, 2026. Further details regarding the terms of the Cisco trade and corresponding roster adjustments were not immediately disclosed.
