Detroit's Most Confusing Cutdown Day: Inside the Roster Nobody Predicted - EP 050

About this episode
The Lions finally set their 53-man roster, and it wasn't the roster most analysts projected. Greg Dortch? Gone — but the reasoning behind each cut reveals more about Brad Holmes' roster-building philosophy than the moves themselves suggest at first glance. We start at quarterback, where Josh Dobbs' clean preseason finale settled a debate that was never really close, before moving into the running back room, where the surprise retention of both Jacob Saylors and Jabari Small(?)l has fueled a compelling roster-gymnastics theory tied to injury settlement rules and Cade Mays' eventual return.This episode of Lions Grey Manes dissects the surprises, the head-scratchers, and the strategic bets buried in Detroit's initial 53, separating reactionary takes from what the data, the depth chart, and the fine print actually tell us.🦁Join The Grey Manes Community🦁✅ Official: https://www.thegreymanes.com/ ✅ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheGreyManes/ ✅ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GreyManes ✅ X/Twitter: https://x.com/TheGreyManes ✅ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@LionsGreyManes
