The NFLPA announced Friday that he was elected president by the player board of representatives. He served on the board's executive committee the past two seasons.
Reeves-Maybin follows J.C. Tretter, formerly of the Cleveland Browns, who was elected in March 2022 to his second two-year term. He remained president despite his NFL retirement in August 2022.
Reeves-Maybin, 29, was a fourth-round draft pick of the Lions and played four years there before signing as a free agent with the Houston Texans in 2022. Released by the Texans in March 2023, he returned to Detroit and was selected to his first Pro Bowl last season for his play on special teams.
He signed a two-year, $7.5 million deal with the Lions on Feb. 26.
