Jefferson signed with the Cardinals' practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
With both James Conner (foot) and Trey Benson (knee) being placed on injured reserve, Jefferson's signing provides a depth option at running back. He last played for the Lions in 2024, taking six carries for 22 yards over 12 offensive snaps. Jefferson could be elevated to the Cardinals' active roster as soon as the Week 5 matchup against the Week 5 matchup against the Titans.

Tennessee cut Jefferson from its practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Just two days after joining the Titans' practice squad, Jefferson is now parting ways with the team. He's in line to become a free agent and will likely have to look for his next opportunity with a new organization.

The Titans signed Jefferson to the practice squad Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson was unable to make the Titans' 53-man roster after finishing the preseason with nine carries for 59 yards and one touchdown along with an 11-yard catch in three preseason games. The 2021 seventh-rounder will stay in Tennessee as part of the team's practice squad, but he could be elevated to the active roster for the Titans' regular-season opener against the Broncos on Sunday, Sept. 7 if Kalel Mullings (ankle) is not cleared to play.

Tennessee waived Jefferson on Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson looked pretty good in limited opportunities during the preseason, rushing nine times for 59 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for an 11-yard gain. However, Tennessee decided it doesn't have room for the 25-year-old on its initial 53-man roster. Jefferson is a candidate for the Titans' practice squad if he clear waivers.

Jefferson rushed the ball eight times for 41 yards in Friday's 23-13 preseason win over the Vikings. He added one reception on one target for 11 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson was the final Titans' back to enter Friday's game, though he did mix in with Jordan Mims throughout the second half. Jefferson was the more efficient back of the duo, with much of his yardage coming on a 29-yard attempt that he immediately followed up with an 11-yard reception. His usage suggests he has a limited chance to make the roster heading into the regular season, though Jefferson did conclude the preseason impressively.

The Titans signed Jefferson to a contract Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson appeared in two regular-season games for the Lions in 2024, posting six carries for 22 yards and one catch on as many targets for 10 yards. The 2021 seventh-round pick will use training camp and the preseason to audition for a spot on the Titans' 53-man roster.

The Lions reverted Jefferson to their practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson was elevated ahead of Monday's win against the 49ers and logged three carries for nine yards. That was his second elevation of the campaign, so he could be up with Detroit again in Week 18 versus Minnesota. Jefferson has been providing running back depth for the Lions since David Montgomery suffered an MCL injury versus Buffalo in Week 15.

Jefferson rushed the ball three times for nine yards in Monday night's 40-34 victory over San Francisco.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson was elevated to the active roster for the second game in a row Monday, garnering three opportunities out of the backfield, two of which were goal-line carries in the first quarter. For the second straight week, Jefferson rushed the ball while rookie Sione Vaki went without a carry and Jefferson may be considered Detroit's No. 3 running back behind Jahmyr Gibbs and Craig Reynolds for the time being with David Montgomery (knee) unavailable.

The Lions elevated Jefferson from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Monday night's game against the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis

Jefferson played 12 snaps (five on offense, seven on special teams) during the Lions' Week 16 win over the Bears and logged three carries for 13 yards while hauling in his lone target for 10 yards.

Jefferson reverted to the Lions' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson was elevated to the active roster for the first time this season due to the absence of David Montgomery (knee). Jefferson served as the Lions' No. 4 running back behind Jahmyr Gibbs, Craig Reynolds and Sione Vaki, and Jefferson ended up logging three carries during garbage time for 13 yards while hauling in his lone target for an additional 10 yards in Detroit's 34-17 win over Chicago. Jefferson could be elevated for the Lions' Week 17 clash against the 49ers on Monday, Dec. 30.
