- WR Travis Fulgham
- DE Jonathan Wynn

Pittman, 22, signed on with the Lions as an undrafted free agent out of Wayne State. He was among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason and was added to their practice squad once passing through waivers unclaimed.
The Lions elected to cut him from their practice squad last week to make room for Wile and RB Bo Scarbrough.
During his college career, Pittman recorded 181 total tackles, 31.5 tackles for loss and eight sacks.
