2026 NFL preseason and roster developments

Overview

The 2026 NFL preseason has commenced, marked by roster transitions and early performance evaluations. In Detroit, the Lions placed veteran quarterback Teddy Bridgewater on the reserve/retired list after he expressed a fear of ‘letting the Lions down.’ This retirement has created depth concerns at the position, leading to speculation that the team may seek a trade for Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Tanner McKee to support starter Jared Goff.

During their preseason opener, the Lions suffered a 16-14 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite the defeat, running back Jacob Saylors emerged as a notable performer, earning praise from head coach Dan Campbell, who described him as “probably our most potent player on offense.”
