The Detroit Lions might be cooking something up again. 👀
NFL trade buzz is swirling, and this time it’s linking Seahawks cornerback Tariq Woolen to the Lions, who could be looking to bolster their secondary before the season hits full stride.
Woolen, known for his blazing speed and 6’4” frame, has quickly built a reputation as one of the league’s most physically gifted corners. But after a rocky start to the 2025 season in Seattle — including some inconsistent play and whispers of locker room tension — rumors have begun flying that the Seahawks might be willing to listen to offers.
And the Lions? They’re watching closely.
Detroit’s secondary has improved, but with injuries and a few coverage breakdowns showing up early, a player like Woolen could be exactly the kind of upgrade Dan Campbell’s crew needs to keep their defense elite.
Adding Woolen would give the Lions a dynamic duo alongside Brian Branch and Cam Sutton, giving Detroit one of the most athletic secondaries in the NFC. Still, nothing’s official — yet. But if Brad Holmes has taught fans anything, it’s that he’s not afraid to make a bold move when the opportunity’s right.
As the deadline nears, don’t be surprised if the Lions make headlines again.
