Top Jacob Saylors News

  • Lions' Jacob Saylors: Lands with Lions

    Detroit signed Saylors to a contract Monday.

    Saylors went undrafted out of East Tennessee State in 2023, and he's since logged offseason stints with the Bengals, Giants and Browns while also spending time on the Falcons' practice squad as a rookie. However, Saylors has also accrued 960 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns while adding a 45-397-3 receiving line across 18 regular-season games with the St. Louis Battlehawks of the UFL over the spring league's last two seasons. He's still vying for a chance to make his NFL regular-season debut.

  • Jacob Saylors: Headed for free agency

    Saylors was waived by the Browns on Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealerreports.

    Saylors joined Cleveland after being let go by the Giants on Aug. 11. He'd also spent time in camp with the Bengals and on the Falcons' practice squad in 2023 after going undrafted out of East Tennessee State, and he'd rushed for 461 yards at an impressive 4.9 yards per carry while adding a 23-152 receiving line for the UFL's St. Louis Battlehawks this past spring.

  • Jacob Saylors: Let go by Big Blue

    The Giants waived Saylors on Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    After ending the 2023 season on the Falcons' injured reserve, Saylors caught on with the Giants in June. He played eight snaps in Thursday's 14-3 preseason win over the Lions, but all of them were on special teams. Saylors' path to the Giants' 53-man roster was always going to be a tough one, and the 23-year-old running back will now explore his next options assuming he clears waivers.

  • Giants' Jacob Saylors: Joining Big Blue

    Saylors has agreed to terms on a contract with the Giants, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Saylors joined the Bengals' roster prior to the 2023 season as an undrafted free agent before getting waived during final roster cuts. He ultimately landed with the Falcons' practice squad in October. He then suffered an undisclosed injury in November that landed him on injured reserve. With his addition to New York's roster, it looks like he is good to go heading into the 2024 season. There are five other running backs on the roster, so Saylors figures to have his work cut out for him going forward.

  • Jacob Saylors: Cut from practice-squad IR

    The Falcons cut Saylors (undisclosed) from their practice-squad injured list Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Saylors joined Atlanta's practice squad Oct. 18 and landed on the practice-squad IR about a month later due to an undisclosed issue. He appears to be back to full health but will need to look for work with a new organization as he pursues his first taste of NFL regular-season action.

  • Jacob Saylors: Sidelined by injury

    Saylors (undisclosed) was placed on the Falcons' practice squad injured list Monday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

    Saylors will now be out for the next four weeks and be ineligible to practice with the team or be elevated to the active roster. The East Tennessee State product joined Atlanta on Oct. 18 after failing to stick with the Bengals out of training camp.

  • Jacob Saylors: Signing with Atlanta

    The Falcons signed Saylors to their practice practice squad Wednesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

    Saylors signed as an undrafted free agent with the Bengals in May before being waived as part of final roster cuts but will now get another opportunity in Atlanta. The 22-year-old will likely only see playing time if one of the three running backs on the Falcons' active roster is forced to miss time.
