He largely did not live as much as expectations when on the sector, and a shoulder injury limited him to eight games in 2025. Those aspects is not going to prevent interest from suitors, but a suspension or lingering uncertainty over his legal status would presumably result in a lengthy free agent period.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Monday afternoon marked the deadline for teams to file a waiver claim for\u00a0Terrion Arnold.\u00a0To little surprise, the previous Lions cornerback is as a substitute heading to free agency.
