Joins active roster
The Lions signed Firkser to their active roster Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Firkser's signing could be an indication that Detroit is preparing to be without rookie sensation Sam LaPorta (knee) in Sunday's wild-card game against the Rams. If the Lions are without LaPorta in the postseason opener, Firkser would likely serve as the team's top backup tight end behind Brock Wright.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Works out for Houston
Firkser took part in a workout for the Texans on Friday, per Aaron Wilson of Click2Houston.com.
ANALYSIS
The Texans had Firkser and fellow tight end Devin Asiasi in the building Friday, though neither one walked away with a deal immediately after the workout. Current backup tight ends Teagan Quitoriano and Brevin Jordan have combined for only 42 career catches, so the Texans may be searching for a more experienced option behind starter Dalton Schultz. Firkser would fit the bill, as he topped 200 yards in each of his first four seasons with the Titans before posting 100 yards with the Falcons in 2022.
