Detroit Lions Free Agency Updates: Key Signings and Roster Moves
The Detroit Lions have been aggressive in NFL free agency, retaining key players while adding fresh talent to strengthen the roster for another deep playoff run. General Manager Brad Holmes continues to execute a balanced strategy, ensuring continuity while making targeted additions.
As the 2025 NFL Draft approaches, Holmes and his staff remain focused on adding young talent to complement their free-agent signings. With the 2025 NFL Combine behind us, the Lions’ scouting department is working tirelessly to evaluate prospects who could make an impact in Detroit next season.
Join us live tonight, Wednesday, March 19, as we break down all the latest free agency news, Lions’ signings, and upcoming draft targets.
Lions Free Agent Updates: Key Players Returning and New Additions
The Lions free agent strategy has been clear—retain key contributors while bringing in players who fit Dan Campbell’s culture. Among the notable moves:
- Shane Zylstra is returning after injury, adding depth at tight end.
- Ali Muhammed, a disruptive defensive lineman, rejoins the Lions to bolster the defensive front.
- Patrick O’Connor, a high-motor defensive end, brings depth and experience to Detroit’s pass rush.
These signings, along with internal extensions, show that Holmes is building a roster with depth and durability for another playoff push.
Jared Goff Joins Netflix’s “Quarterbacks”
One of the biggest off-the-field stories this offseason is Jared Goff’s appearance in the upcoming season of Netflix’s hit series “Quarterbacks”.

With Goff at the center of Detroit’s offensive success, his perspective on leading the Lions to playoff contention will be must-watch content for fans. His appearance on the show highlights how the Lions’ resurgence has captured national attention.
