Terrion Arnold Fantasy Stats

The Seattle Seahawks have officially signed cornerback Terrion Arnold, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The former first-round pick was released by the Detroit Lions late in June after he was arrested and faced eight felony charges, including robbery and kidnapping. Arnold will now be placed on the commissioner's exempt list, which means he will be unable to practice or play with the team. As a result, Arnold is not expected to be part of the Seahawks' 53-man roster when the team has to drop to that number on Sunday. If Arnold gets to play, it would be a major addition to the reigning Super Bowl Champions' defensive secondary and create one of the best cornerback duos in the league alongside Devon Witherspoon. It would allow Mike Macdonald to get more creative on defense and make it a nightmare for opposing offensive coordinators to scheme receivers open.

Former Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold plans to sign with the Seattle Seahawks, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Arnold has also visited with the Houston Texans, New Orleans Saints, and New York Giants. The NFL must next decide whether to put Arnold on the commissioner's exempt list after he was arrested on felony charges in connection with a robbery and kidnapping in February, which is why the Lions released him earlier this year. The 23-year-old was originally taken with the 24th overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft from the University of Alabama, and he recorded 91 tackles (70 solo), an interception, 18 pass breakups, and a fumble recovery in 24 games (22 starts) in his first two years in the league with the Lions. Arnold only played in eight games for Detroit last season. If he's allowed to play in 2026, Arnold will give the defending Super Bowl-champion Seahawks more depth in their defensive backfield.

Former Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold, who is facing legal issues in Florida, was released by the Lions last week and cleared waivers on Monday to become a free agent, according to ESPN. Arnold was released after he was arrested on felony charges of armed robbery and kidnapping. He's expected to visit NFL teams that have shown an interest in signing him. The 23-year-old defensive back turned himself in on June 24 after authorities accused him of orchestrating the abduction and beating of three men whom prosecutors believe he wrongly suspected of having stolen luxury goods and $100,000 in cash from him. Arnold was a former first-round pick by the Lions in 2024 out of the University of Alabama, and he was scheduled to start outside opposite D.J. Reed this year before his release last week. He had two years and $4.8 million left on his rookie contract. It's unclear at this time if any other NFL team is willing to take on Arnold's baggage and give him another chance.

Detroit Lions defensive back Terrion Arnold (shoulder) is done for the season after being placed on Injured Reserve on Monday. Arnold is set to undergo shoulder surgery after suffering an injury during the Thanksgiving Day loss to the Green Bay Packers. He made his return to the field last week following a two-game absence due to a concussion. The 22-year-old will now end his sophomore campaign with 31 tackles and one interception in eight games. Khalil Dorsey and Amik Robertson could see more snaps with Arnold sidelined for the rest of the regular season for the Lions' defense.

Detroit Lions defensive backs Terrion Arnold (shoulder) and Avonte Maddox (hamstring) will both likely return following the team's bye in Week 8, according to head coach Dan Campbell. Arnold aggravated a shoulder injury in Week 5 and was forced to sit out of the Sunday night loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 6. The 22-year-old is also going to miss a Monday night showdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 7, but he should be ready to go in Week 9 in a divisional battle versus the Minnesota Vikings. Detroit is also currently without defensive back D.J. Reed (hamstring), who is on Injured Reserve, so they've been forced to rely more on Rock Ya-Sin and Amik Robertson in their secondary at cornerback. The Lions' depleted secondary will be noteworthy this upcoming Monday night, but it remains to be seen if the Buccaneers can take advantage of it with their banged-up receiving corps.

A second opinion on Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold's shoulder on Tuesday showed that the injury is not as bad as initially feared, and he is now expected to return this year, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. A source described it as "sooner than expected" for Arnold's return, and he could make it back in October. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero said on Tuesday morning that it was looking likely that the 22-year-old cornerback would miss the rest of the year. However, now it looks like he could avoid season-ending shoulder surgery, which is great news for Detroit's secondary. The Lions are also currently without D.J. Reed (hamstring) and Khalil Dorsey (concussion) in their secondary, leaving them thin on the back end heading into their Week 6 showdown on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold (shoulder) is getting a second opinion but may be forced to miss the remainder of the 2025 season due to a shoulder injury he suffered in Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Arnold has struggled this season, with Pro Football Focus grading him as the 132nd-best cornerback out of 169 qualified players at the position. Still, his loss will impact the Lions, who have already placed top cornerback D.J. Reed (hamstring) on Injured Reserve and lost cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr. (shoulder) to a season-ending shoulder injury over the summer. Without Arnold and Reed, the Lions will likely rely on Amik Robertson, Avonte Maddox, and Rock Ya-Sin to handle cornerback duties. Detroit will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 6, so it could be a favorable matchup for Chiefs wideouts Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and Tyquan Thornton.

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that cornerback Terrion Arnold (shoulder) is going to be out "for a long time," according to Ben Raven of MLive. Arnold might not miss the rest of the season, but it sounds like he probably won't be back until the second half. The 22-year-old defensive back initially injured his shoulder in the Week 4 win over the Browns before aggravating the injury in Sunday's Week 5 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Suddenly, Detroit's secondary is looking pretty thin with D.J. Reed (hamstring) on Injured Reserve and Khalil Dorsey (concussion) expected to miss multiple weeks. With all the injuries, Rock Ya-Sin and Tre Flowers will be asked to step up in the secondary. With Detroit's high-octane offense and now with a thin secondary, Detroit's defense could be a nice matchup for opposing passing attacks, granted they can slow down star pass-rusher Aidan Hutchinson.

Detroit Lions linebacker Derrick Barnes (hand) and cornerback Terrion Arnold (leg) exited Thursday's training-camp practice early due to hand and leg injuries, respectively. Both are being further evaluated by the team, but not much information is available yet. While it's early in the offseason, it's never good news to have players being knocked out of practice, especially after Detroit's defense was decimated by injuries at the tail-end of the 2024 campaign. Barnes, a fifth-year veteran out of Purdue, and Arnold, a second-year pro out of Alabama, are projected starters for new defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard. If Detroit wants to break through and win the NFC, its defense must find better injury luck in 2025.

The Detroit Lions coaches think that cornerback Terrion Arnold is set up to take a big jump forward in his second year in the league in 2025, according to Colton Pouncy of The Athletic. Because the team thought he could handle it, they threw a lot at Arnold in his rookie campaign -- he played the most man-coverage snaps of any cornerback in the NFL. The 22-year-old fell to 24th overall in last year's draft, and the Lions pounced and traded up for him. Arnold definitely wasn't perfect in his first year in the league while playing meaningful snaps, but Detroit believes that exposure will serve him well moving forward. The Alabama product finished 2024 with 60 tackles (47 solo), 10 pass breakups and a fumble recovery in 16 regular-season games (15 starts). It's possible Arnold will be the team's top corner in 2025.
