Here is the latest On SI Detroit Lions 53-man roster projection, following the start of an ongoing legal matter involving former first-round pick Terrion Arnold. It is highly likely that the former Alabama Crimson Tide ends up on the Commissioner's exempt list throughout the duration of what could end up being a lengthy trial. According to ESPN, The commissioner's exempt list is, in effect, paid leave. While on the list, players are not allowed to play football. Instead, players are permitted to attend meetings, workouts, and receive treatments at the team facility. Only NFL commissioner Roger Goodell -- not a team -- has the authority to place a player on the exempt list. The commissioner also has the sole authority to determine the length of a player's stint on the exempt list and when that player will return to the active roster."Quarterback (2)In: Jared Goff, Teddy BridgewaterOut: Luke AltmyerRunning back (3)In: Jahmyr Gibbs, Isiah Pacheco, Jacob SaylorsOut: Jabari Small, Kye Robichaux, Sione Vaki Wide receiver (5)In: Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Isaac TeSlaa, Greg Dortch, Dominic Lovett.Out: Cedrick Wilson Jr., Tom Kennedy, Malik Cunningham, Tarik Black, Tay Martin, Lucky JacksonInjured: Kendrick LawTight end (4)In: Sam LaPorta, Brock Wright, Tyler Conklin, Jackson MeeksOut: Miles Kitselman, Zach Horton, Thomas GordonOffensive line (9)In: Cade Mays, Tate Ratledge, Christian Mahogany, Penei Sewell, Blake Miller, Larry Borom, Juice Scruggs, Miles Frazier, Ben BartchOut: Giovanni Manu, Devin Cochran, Seth McLaughlin, Mason Miller, Michael Niese, Melvin Priestly, Colby SorsdalAdditional Insider Analysis: Updated Detroit Lions 2026 Offensive Depth ChartInterior defensive line (5)In: Alim McNeill, Tyleik Williams, Mekhi Wingo, Levi Onwuzurike, Ahmed HassaneinOut: Tyler Lacy, Myles Adams, Chris Smith, Aidan Keanaaina, Jay Tufele, Skyler Gill-HowardEDGE (4)In: Aidan Hutchinson, D.J.
