Arthur Maulet: Everything you need to know

The Lions waived Maulet on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Detroit is finally getting healthy again in the secondary, so Maulet gets the boot from the 53-man roster. The 32-year-old cornerback has appeared in six games for the Lions this season, producing 14 tackles (11 solo) and two pass breakups, including one interception, on 105 defensive snaps.

Maulet tallied five tackles (all solo) and an interception in a 24-9 Week 7 win over the Buccaneers. Maulet logged a 50 percent defensive snap share in his second game as a practice-squad elevation for the Lions. The veteran cornerback made a big play late in the second quarter when he intercepted a Baker Mayfield pass that was originally ruled a Cade Otton reception before being overturned upon review. Maulet's performance likely was a contributing factor to Detroit signing him to the active roster Monday.

Maulet (calf/knee) signed a one-year contract with the Texans on Monday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports. Maulet was limited to three regular-season appearances with the Ravens in 2024 due to injuries but has regained health and joined the Texans for training camp. The veteran cornerback has 85 games of regular-season NFL experience under his belt.
