The Detroit Lions have had to seek external solutions for their pass rush due to injuries to key players. General manager Brad Holmes made strategic moves by signing Al-Quadin Muhammad and trading for Za'Darius Smith, who have both made significant contributions alongside teammates.
In a recent Thanksgiving victory, this revamped pass rush recorded 4.5 sacks and pressured rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, showcasing their ability to disrupt the opposing offense.
Al-Quadin Muhammad secured his first sack as a Lion, demonstrating relentless pursuit and physicality. Za'Darius Smith not only recorded 1.5 sacks but also created nine pressures, proving his worth since joining the team. DJ Reader added two sacks, highlighting the Lions' effective interior rush despite injuries.
