The Detroit Lions have made another roster move ahead of cutdown day, releasing EDGE rusher Mitchell Agude.
Agude, 26, joined the Lions in 2024 and appeared in four games during his lone season with the team. In limited action, he tallied three total tackles (two solo), one tackle for loss, and a forced fumble.
A product of UCLA and Miami, Agude entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent and carved out a role as a rotational defender. Despite his effort and flashes in preseason play, Detroit’s depth at the edge position made it difficult for him to secure a spot on the 53-man roster.
Agude’s athleticism and ability to contribute on special teams could draw interest from other teams, or he could be a candidate to land back on Detroit’s practice squad if he clears waivers.
