They proved it by securing the top seed in the NFC Playoffs with a 15-2 record.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, by the time the Lions reached the playoffs, they were forced to take the field without several key contributors due to injury, including their best defender, Aidan Hutchinson.

Naturally, news of one of the NFL\u2019s best players hitting the trade block shook the sports world.<\/p>\n<p>Garrett is a four-time All-Pro who\u2019s recorded 10 or more sacks in seven consecutive seasons, but he\u2019s only made the playoffs twice in his eight-year career. It\u2019s time for that to change, with Garrett now prioritizing the opportunity to join a contender.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, it didn\u2019t take long for Hutchinson and Garrett to discuss what it would be like to pair up on the Lions. Hutchinson recently revealed bits about how his conversation with Garrett unfolded during an appearance on \u201cThe Lautners\u201d podcast.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe were just talking\u00a0about what could be. And, although it\u2019s probably unlikely, I would be thrilled to play next to him if it were to happen. Our whole D-Line would be just totally elevated. That would be a scary defensive line. And we get along, too. I\u2019ve seen him these last few years at different things. He texted me after I got hurt, which, I don\u2019t know, it was just a cool thing. Like guys outside of your own team who reach out to you. So I think he\u2019s a good dude. If he does, great, but I don\u2019t know. We\u2019ll see. But that would be awesome.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><cite>Aidan Hutchinson on recruiting Myles Garrett to Detroit Lions<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Lautners: Super Bowl Edition\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qeaJXrfHxtU?feature=oembed\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>As exciting as the possibility of the Lions adding the six-time Pro Bowler to an already strong core, the Browns have expressed a strong reluctance to grant Garrett\u2019s trade request.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the Lions are able to make an offer that\u2019s too good to refuse, the idea of Garrett forming a pass-rushing tandem with Hutchinson should have all NFL offensive coaches worried about their protection schemes in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aidan Hutchinson is one of the top players on the Detroit Lions and now he&#8217;s trying to recruit one of the league&#8217;s best players to join him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":15010,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15009","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-detroit-lions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
