Lions, Meeks and WR

Jackson Meeks is threatening to take a roster spot away from a Detroit Lions 2025 draft pick.
Lions WR Jackson Meeks, nephew of Za'Darius Smith, made his case for making Detroit's final roster with a great game against the Dolphins.
TeSlaa has had a terrific camp showing the kind of poise, route running ability and hands that are not typical of most rookie receivers. He's a big target at 6-foot-4 and his 4.4 speed allows him to separate from defenders. He's expected to be an early contributor for the Lions.
The touchdown, which is his second of the preseason, showcased his ability to adjust with the ball in the air, as well as his high-pointing skills. TeSlaa looks the part of a player who is deserving of a role in 2025.
