Since general manager Brad Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell were hired in 2021, seven UDFAs have made Detroit's Week 1 roster, including at least one each year. In 2024, it was long snapper Hogan Hatten, safety Loren Strickland and wide receiver Isaiah Williams.

For those that do officially sign with the Lions (or any team), it's a three-year contract worth the combined league minimum for those three seasons. In 2025, that figure is $2.965 million.
