Detroit Lions' Start-Up in Doubt as Top Decision Maker Faces Struggle!
After signing D.J. Wonnum, the Detroit Lions could still add another pass rusher.
The Detroit Lions made a move to address their defensive line by signing D. J. Wonnum , but don’t expect that to be the final piece of the puzzle.
In fact, there’s a strong reason to believe Detroit is far from done adding to its EDGE room. Wonnum profiles more as a run defender and rotational piece, not necessarily the type of player who consistently wins as a high-end pass rusher. That leaves the door wide open for the Lions to bring in a veteran who can get after the quarterback.
Here are two names that make a lot of sense. 1. Von Miller If the Lions want a proven closer off the edge, Von Miller is about as accomplished as it gets.
Even at 36 years old , Miller showed in 2025 that he can still impact the game: 9. 0 sacks 16 solo tackles Played all 17 games Miller remains one of the most feared situational pass rushers in the league, and his experience in big moments would be invaluable for a Detroit team with Super Bowl aspirations. A one-year deal would: Limit long-term risk Provide elite pass-rush ability in key situations Add championship pedigree to the locker room 2.
