The NFL publishes a daily transaction report, one that runs the gamut between roster cuts, players being placed on reserve lists to those trying out for teams and everything in between. Tuesday’s transaction list was crowded with updates on former Detroit Lions players.
Foremost on the list is Trey Flowers. The New England Patriots released the defensive end from the team’s PUP list. Flowers has not played this season and managed just 65 snaps for the Miami Dolphins in 2022 after the Lions released him following the 2021 season.

One-time Lions OL Tommy Kraemer is back on the New Orleans Saints practice squad. Kraemer was signed from New Orleans’ practice squad to their active roster last week, then waived on Monday. He’s played seven offensive snaps in two games with the Saints.
Another former Lions offensive lineman, Obinna Eze, had his practice squad contract terminated by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Eze signed with Pittsburgh’s practice squad after Week 3 but was unable to stick.
There were a few ex-Lions hitting the tryout/workout circuit this week, too:
QB Jeff Driskel tried out for the Colts (Monday)
DT Bruce Hector also tried out for the Colts
K Austin Seibert tried out for the Raiders
OL Ross Pierschbacher tried out for the Cardinals
CB AJ Parker tried out for the Seahawks
DB Juju Hughes tried out for the Raiders
As of Wednesday morning, none of the players were signed.
