There are always roster changes around the NFL. The Detroit Lions are no different. The team today is not the same team that will end the season. Going beyond that, almost a quarter of the Lions current 90-man roster is slated to become unrestricted free agents after the upcoming season.
Not all of these players figure to make the final 53-man roster, but all are on the Lions roster as of July 4th. A handful listed here, including the first five on the list, have contracts that void automatically even though there are technically additional years, a technicality done for salary cap purposes.
