Trevor Nowaske claimed off waivers by the Cardinals

The Lions knew they were risking a personnel loss when they waived linebacker Trevor Nowaske on Thursday. That unfortunate possibility became a reality when the Arizona Cardinals claimed the undrafted rookie from the waiver wire.

Nowaske will be on the Cardinals’ 53-man roster for the remainder of the season, and Arizona controls his rights beyond the 2023 campaign. The Detroit-area native was a feel-good story, earning a spot on the Lions as an undrafted rookie from Saginaw Valley State. The Lions added him to the active roster earlier in the season when another team attempted to poach him off the practice squad.

He played extensively on special teams in the last two games but did not appear on defense.

Cornerback Chase Lucas cleared waivers and is expected back on the Lions practice squad.
