The Detroit Lions are reportedly being urged to sign a veteran linebacker with 66 games of NFL experience, according to a report from Heavy.com. The suggestion involves targeting an edge rusher currently with the Buffalo Bills, though the player's name was not disclosed in the initial report.
Analyst Michael Whitaker highlighted the potential move on November 4, 2026, noting the Lions' need for pass-rush depth. The unidentified linebacker has accumulated 66 career games, suggesting a seasoned presence that could bolster Detroit's defense.
No official signing has been announced, and the Lions' front office has not commented on the speculation.
