The Detroit Lions agreed Nov. 9 to acquire safety Andre Cisco from the New York Jets in exchange for a 2028 sixth-round draft pick, both teams announced.
The Lions said additional trade terms were not disclosed. They also announced they waived tight end Jackson Meeks. Cisco, originally a third-round pick (65th overall) by Jacksonville in 2021 out of Syracuse, has appeared in 80 NFL games with 59 starts, the club said, with 278 tackles, 26 pass defenses, eight interceptions, four forced fumbles and 2.5 sacks for his career.
The Jets said Cisco, a Queens native who re-signed with New York in March, appeared in nine games this season and played 168 defensive snaps over three weeks after Minkah Fitzpatrick was injured in Week 1. Related: other deadline-week trades.
