The Detroit Lions waive quarterback Hendon Hooker, drafted in 2023, due to poor preseason performance.

The Detroit Lions are set to waive quarterback Hendon Hooker, their 2023 third-round pick, as they cut their roster down to 53 players. Hooker struggled in preseason games, completing only 22 of 40 pass attempts with three interceptions and two fumbles. The Lions will keep starting quarterback Jared Goff and backup Kyle Allen on their 53-man roster.
