Could Khalil Mack Be the Missing Piece for the Lions’ Defense?
The Detroit Lions are in win-now mode, and after a heartbreaking playoff exit, they’re looking to reload—especially on defense. With Aidan Hutchinson expected back from injury, adding a veteran pass rusher could make Detroit’s defensive front truly elite.
One name being floated? Khalil Mack.
At 33, Mack may not be in his prime, but he still put up six sacks, two forced fumbles, and nine pass deflections last season with the Chargers. Pairing him with Hutchinson and Za’Darius Smith could create a nightmare for opposing offenses.
With over $40 million in cap space, the Lions have the flexibility to make a splash signing. If they pull the trigger on Mack, could this be the move that gets them to the Super Bowl?
