Sunday NFL Transactions: NFC North
Listed below are the Sunday roster moves for the four NFC North teams. Following the 53-man roster cutdown deadline yesterday, many teams will make slight tweaks to their rosters, claiming players off waivers or signing guys who clear waivers. Those transactions for the Bears, Lions, Packers and Vikings are noted below.
Additionally, teams can begin constructing their 10-man practice squads today. You can check out our glossary entry on practice squads to brush up on those changes, as well as all the other guidelines that govern the 10-man units, whose players practice with the team but aren’t eligible to suit up on Sundays.

Lions Trim Roster To 53
The Lions are the latest team to officially trim their roster all the way down to 53. After stockpiling quarterbacks, they’ve now cut two of them. Former AAF passer Luis Perez and Tom Savage were both let go. That means that legendary journeyman Josh Johnson has made the team as Matthew Stafford‘s backup, and recently acquired rookie David Blough has made the squad as the third-stringer. Detroit also waived Isaac Nauta, a rookiie tight end out of Georgia who they drafted in the seventh-round.
DT John Atkins
LB Malik Carney
DT P.J. Johnson
DT Fredrick Jones
WR Tom Kennedy
C Leo Koloamatangi
LB Steven Longa
TE Isaac Nauta
QB Luis Perez
LB Anthony Pittman
QB Tom Savage
DT Ray Smith
WAIVED/INJURED:
WR Andy Jones
Lions Sign 13 UDFAs
On Friday, the Lions added 13 undrafted rookies to their roster. Here’s the full rundown:
- Nate Becker, TE (Miami, Ohio)
- Beau Benzschawel, G (Wisconsin)
- Malik Carney, LB (UNC)
- Jonathan Duhart, WR (Old Dominion)
- Tre Lamar, LB (Clemson)
- C.J. Moore, S (Ole Miss)
- Matt Nelson, T (Iowa),
- Donald Parham, TE (Stetson)
- Anthony Pittman, LB (Wayne State)
- Ryan Pope, T (San Diego State)
- Micah St. Andrew, G (Fresno State)
- Ray Smith, DT (Boston College)
- Kevin Strong, DT (Texas San-Antonio)
The Lions did not select any offensive linemen in the draft, so they went ahead and inked four OLs in Benzschawel, Nelson, Pope, and St. Andrew. With that in mind, the players in this group may have decent odds of making the final cut from the 90-man roster to the final 53.
