The Detroit Lions have strengthened their defensive lineup by acquiring veteran Za'Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns, recognizing the need for pass-rushing depth after Aidan Hutchinson's recent injury.
Za'Darius Smith, a three-time Pro Bowler with 65 career sacks, adds significant experience to the Lions' defense, which has struggled with pass-rushing efficiency since Hutchinson's absence.
With a current 30.6% pass-rush win rate, the Lions are ranked 26th in the NFL since Hutchinson's injury, highlighting their urgent need for reinforcement.
The Lions traded for Smith and received a seventh-round draft pick while the Browns acquired future draft picks, showcasing a strategic move for both teams as they prepare for upcoming seasons.
