Former Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold is back on the market, and his next stop could come quickly.
Arnold’s release is now official, putting him on the waiver wire after Detroit moved on from the former first-round pick it selected in 2024. According to his attorney Harvey Steinberg, Arnold has already heard from three NFL teams over the last 48 hours.
Steinberg also addressed a recent motion from Florida prosecutors seeking to have Arnold fitted with a GPS tether, saying, "Mr. Arnold is not a flight risk, nor is he a danger to the community. He is confined to his home by both court conditions and media scrutiny and anticipates that he will have employment with another NFL team within 30 days."
If Arnold clears waivers, there are a handful of teams that could make sense as a landing spot.
One possibility is the Jets, where Aaron Glenn is now the head coach. Glenn, Detroit’s former defensive coordinator, spent a season working closely with Arnold and could be drawn to bringing in a player he knows well. Given Glenn’s reputation as a strong relationship builder, that connection could matter.
Washington is another team worth watching. The Commanders have questions at cornerback after Mike Sainristil’s production dipped in 2025 following a strong rookie year, while 2025 second-round pick Trey Amos is expected to start opposite him. Washington also signed former Lion Amik Robertson to handle nickel duties, but Arnold could still fit as added competition in that room.
Dallas could also be in the mix. The Cowboys were looking for a second corner opposite DaRon Bland after Trevon Diggs was waived, and while they added Cobie Durant from the Los Angeles Rams and drafted Caleb Downs to work in the nickel, Arnold’s starting experience could appeal to them. He could provide competition for Durant and Bland, and he would also offer insurance with Bland limited to 19 games over the last two seasons.
Kansas City is another team with a secondary that could use more certainty. The Chiefs made major changes this offseason, trading Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams, drafting Mansoor DeLane in the first round, and reuniting with veteran L’Jarius Sneed.
Even so, their depth remains shaky, with Kristian Fulton and 2025 third-round pick Nohl Williams listed among the backups. Arnold would give them another experienced option.
Tampa Bay rounds out the list. The Buccaneers’ cornerback group is viewed as the biggest question mark on their defense, with Zyon McCollum and Benjamin Morrison projected as the starters.
Behind them, Josh Hayes and Damarion Williams are both backups, and neither played a defensive snap last season. That makes Arnold a possible fit as a player who could compete for a starting job on the outside.

One Ravens Corner Is Suddenly Pushing For A Bigger Role
Baltimore's cornerback room is set up to look a lot like it did a year ago, with Marlon Humphrey and Chidobe Awuzie again headlining a group that brings both talent and a little uncertainty because of health. That has created an opening for the younger depth behind them, and T.J. Tampa has started to make the kind of impression that keeps a backup in the conversation when training camp rolls around.
Tampa has been drawing attention in offseason workouts, and his value already extends beyond defense as a special teams contributor. If he keeps stacking productive days while the veterans manage their workloads, the Ravens could have a real decision on their hands about how much more to fold him into the rotation. [Read more 🡒]
New Details Deepen Heartbreak For Calais Campbells Family

Mike Greens Unusual Offseason Experiment Will Have Ravens Fans Watching Closely
Ravens outside linebacker Mike Green has spent part of his offseason trying something a little different, using sumo wrestling as a way to sharpen the leverage and upper-body strength hell need against bigger offensive tackles. It is an unconventional route, but the idea makes football sense: learn how to stay low, win the angle and turn speed into power when the matchup gets physical at the line.
Greens work in the ring has already offered a glimpse of how that experiment translates, with the early reps showing the same balance-and-force battle hell face on Sundays. There is still plenty to learn about how far he can take it, and training camp should bring a better sense of how often the Ravens plan to lean into this kind of cross-training for a pass rusher trying to gain an edge.
