2025 Fantasy Outlook
Arnold stepped right into a prominent role in his rookie season with Detroit, recording 60 total tackles, 10 pass defenses and a fumble recovery over 16 regular-season games. Often drawing the opponent's No. 2 wide receiver while Carlton Davis handled the top threat, Arnold was a significant part of a Detroit defense that ranked fourth best in the NFL in opponent passer rating allowed at 84.0. With Davis leaving for New England in free agency, Arnold now will start opposite offseason addition D.J. Reed in the Lions secondary in 2025, potentially assuming the No. 1 role. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $14.34 million contract with the Lions in May of 2024.
Set to return to practice
Head coach Dan Campbell said Monday that Arnold (shoulder) will return to padded practice Tuesday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
ANALYSIS
Arnold missed the Lions' two games prior to the Week 8 bye due to a shoulder injury that he aggravated in Week 5 against the Bengals. His return to practice is a positive sign in his recovery, but Arnold's practice participation over the coming week provide clarity on his chances of playing against the Vikings on Sunday. The Lions' secondary is dealing with multiple injuries, including Rock Ya-Sin (lower body), Avonte Maddox (hamstring) and Kerby Joseph (knee).

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Arnold was selected in the first round (24th overall) of the 2024 NFL Draft by the Lions and figures to operate as one of their primary outside cornerbacks in his rookie campaign. The 21-year-old compiled 63 tackles, including a sack, while securing five interceptions, 12 pass deflections and a forced fumble over 14 contests in his final season at Alabama, and he figures to bring a high level of raw skill to Detroit's secondary. Operating with a 6-0, 189-pound frame, Arnold possesses the size to match up well with opposing wide receivers in his debut season in the league.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Big expectations in second year
The Lions are counting on Arnold to step up in his second year, Colton Pouncy of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Lions relied upon Arnold heavily as a rookie, and he was often on an island in man coverage. That led to inconsistent results, but gave Arnold plenty to learn from. The Lions expect him to improve considerably in 2025, potentially giving them a potent base secondary that also includes D.J. Reed, Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph.
