Detroit Lions − desperate for DL girth − awarded Benito Jones; K Riley Patterson to Jags

Dan Campbell said the Detroit Lions would use their high position in the waiver claim order to bolster their roster in any way possible. In the end, they decided they mostly liked what they had.

The Lions were awarded nose tackle Benito Jones off waivers from the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday, their only addition of the waiver process. The Lions were second in the waiver claim order, behind the 2021 league-worst Jacksonville Jaguars.
