Social Media Reacts
Here’s what people were saying about the signing:
@ChampagneKobe1: “anthony Firkser in the big 2026?? aint heard that name in a minute #titanup”
@BurgundyBurner: “The first WR released – now there is eleven on the roster. Brooks never really had an impact. Firkser is a solid blocker.”
@DistrictDivided: “This is actually a very interesting move! Ja’Corey Brooks was with the squad all the way to final cuts day last season and a fan favorite in a position of need at WR. Anthony Firkser may be here to help show Ben Sinnott what to do”
@De_Kyros: “Firkser is a solid, experienced pass-catching TE who’s been a reliable depth piece for years. Good hands, smart route runner, and useful in the red zone. He brings some stability to the position behind the starters.”
@LionsLiveWire: “Firkser just keeps sticking around man. Love it for him”
@thekbrownshow: “Firkser former Vrabel guy could have used him as additional TE depth @Patriots”
