The Detroit Lions announced Tuesday that they’ve released WR Tre’Quan Smith from injured reserve and re-signed S Erick Hallett to their Practice Squad.

Tre'Quan Smith

Smith, 28, is a former third-round pick of the Saints back in 2018. He finished the final year of his four-year, $3,277,024 rookie contract that included an $817,024 signing bonus before signing a two-year, $6 million contract with the Saints. 

Smith was placed on injured reserve coming out of the preseason in 2021 and the Saints later waived him with a settlement. He caught on with the Broncos practice squad and finished out the year in Denver. 

The Lions signed Smith to a futures contract this past January. 

In 2022, Smith appeared in 15 games for the Saints and caught 19 passes for 278 yards receiving and a touchdown.
