The New York Jets have released kicker Riley Patterson despite his perfect performance in Week 9, opting for more power on kickoffs.

Detroit Lions make roster moves, activate QB Hendon Hooker and waive K Riley Patterson

The Detroit Lions have activated rookie quarterback Hendon Hooker from the non-football injury list and waived kicker Riley Patterson. Hooker, who tore his ACL in November 2022, will serve as the QB3/emergency quarterback behind Jared Goff and Teddy Bridgewater. The Lions plan to develop Hooker for his future NFL role, especially with Bridgewater planning to retire at the end of the season. The Lions can keep Hooker as a game-day inactive but available as an emergency quarterback due to a new NFL rule. The decision to waive Patterson likely stems from the Lions' lack of trust in him during critical moments.
