A second-round pick out of Kentucky in 2022, Josh Paschal had 5 sacks in just 36 career games with the Detroit Lions.

According to Over The Cap, a popular salary cap website, the Detroit Lions converted $40 million of quarterback Jared Goff's 2026 salary to a bonus.

There don’t appear to be any major injury concerns for Mays. He missed three games last season with ankle issues but was able to finish out the last five games of the season, including the playoffs. He should be fully healthy entering the 2026 season.

The Detroit Lions did not tender contracts to restricted free agents Trevor Nowaske and Tom Kennedy, leaving both clear to sign with other teams.

Josh Paschal is no longer a member of the Detroit Lions.
