The Lions waived Kitselman (leg) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Kitselman suffered a leg injury during a practice session in early August, which prompted the Lions to place the 23-year-old tight end on injured reserve this past Wednesday. He would have been forced to miss the entire 2026 season while on IR, but the settlement allows Kitselman to sign and play with a team once he's fully healthy.
