Tracy Walker offers a thankful goodbye to Detroit
It appears Tracy Walker’s time with the Detroit Lions has come to an end. Walker posted a heartfelt goodbye to the Lions fans and thanked them for their support over his six seasons in Detroit.
The move, while not official yet, is not a surprise. Walker has been widely speculated as a salary cap cut for Detroit. The longest-tenured Lions defender was a healthy scratch for most of the second half of the season, and he’s due a salary of just under $8 million in 2024. Cutting Walker saves the Lions $5.5 million in salary cap room this year.
Walker has been a longtime starter and one of the franchise’s emotional leaders.
Thank you for all your years and positive attitude, Tracy. Good luck to one of the best things to come out of the Bob Quinn era in Detroit.
