The Detroit Lions officially announced their 2024 UDFA class and released the list of rookie minicamp tryout players.
With the Detroit Lions rookie minicamp beginning on Friday, the team officially announced the list of undrafted rookies that were signed following the NFL Draft. We have been keeping a tracker of the Lions’ reported 2024 UDFA signings, and even broke down in detail the 15 players that were reported joining the team.
Here’s a look at the Lions official list.
Lions 2024 undrafted rookie class
- WR Isaiah Williams, Illinois
- WR Jalon Calhoun, Duke
- TE Isaac Rex, BYU
- C Kingsley Eguakun, Florida
- C Bryan Hudson, Louisville
- C Duke Clemens, UCLA
- EDGE Isaac Ukwu, Ole Miss
- EDGE Nate Lynn, William & Mary
- LB Steele Chambers, Ohio State
- LB/S DaRon Gilbert, Northern Illinois
- CB Morice Norris, Fresno State
- S Loren Strickland, Ball State
- S Chelen Garnes, Wake Forest
- K James Turner, Michigan
- LS Hogan Hatten, Idaho
With the official addition of these undrafted rookies, the Lions’ 90-player roster is nearly full with just two spots remaining open for additional free agents. It’s possible the Lions dip into the veteran free agent market—like they recently did with C.J. Moore and Kyle Peko—but it’s also possible they sign one of the players trying out at rookie minicamp.
