Lions' Rock Ya-Sin: Re-ups with Lions
Ya-Sin is in line to sign a one-year, $4 million contract with the Lions on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Ya-Sin briefly tested the market but chose to return to the Lions instead of heading to his sixth team in six years. The 2019 second-round pick was a dependable corner for the Lions in 2025, handling 35.6 defensive snaps per game while recording 47 tackles and nine pass breakups through 17 games. The current terms of his contract likely mean he's headed for a similar role in 2026.

Lions' Rock Ya-Sin: Reliable option for Detroit in 2025
Ya-Sin recorded 47 total tackles (27 solo) and nine passes defensed over 17 games during the 2025 regular season.
Ya-Sin was one of the few Lions defensive backs that was able to make it through the season unscathed, compiling a career-high nine passes defensed while playing all 17 regular-season contests for the first time in his seven NFL campaigns. The cornerback had combined to play just 311 defensive snaps over the two previous years with the Ravens and 49ers, but due to Terrion Arnold (shoulder) missing nine contests, Ya-Sin was able to log 604 snaps on defensive in 2025. Ya-Sin is set to enter free agency in the offseason, and whether it's Detroit or elsewhere, he proved he can still be a starting option for a team moving forward next season.

Lions' Rock Ya-Sin: Cleared of injury for Week 9
Ya-Sin (lower body) was not listed on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Ya-Sin was forced to leave the Lions' Week 7 contest against the Buccaneers due to cramps, but the 2019 second-rounder has had extra time to recover thanks to the Week 8 bye. He started in the Lions' two games prior to the bye, though his playing time on defense likely will decrease, as Terrion Arnold (shoulder) appears to be on track to play against the Vikings on Sunday.

Lions' Rock Ya-Sin: Heads to Detroit
Ya-Sin signed with the Lions on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
The depth corner played in 13 games and on 54 defensive snaps for the 49ers last year, though he also saw action on 107 special-teams snaps, making three solo tackles in total. Ya-Sin has started one game over the past two seasons with the Ravens and 49ers. The 2019 second-round pick of the Colts started 38 contests across his first four seasons in the NFL, three with Indianapolis and one with Las Vegas.

49ers' Rock Ya-Sin: Headed to San Francisco
The 49ers signed Ya-Sin (knee) to a one-year deal Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
The 2019 second-round pick will suit up for his fourth team in just as many years after agreeing to terms with the 49ers. Ya-Sin missed the final game of Baltimore's 2023 campaign due to a knee injury, but he's seemingly moved past the issue. The 27-year-old cornerback appeared in 14 games for the Ravens last season, recording 13 tackles and two passes defensed.
