Jets trade safety Andre Cisco to Lions ahead of NFL deadline
Summary

The New York Jets traded safety Andre Cisco to the Detroit Lions on November 9, 2026, a day before the NFL trade deadline. Cisco, who is on an expiring contract, lost playing time in the Jets' secondary and was benched in their recent loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. In exchange for Cisco, the Jets received a sixth-round pick in the 2028 draft. This move reflects the Jets' strategy to acquire value for a player whose role had diminished significantly.
