The Lions had a trembling situation in Edge before the offseason, but the release of Za’darius Smith won. Now both Josh Pascal And Ahmed Hassanein Will not be ready for the start of the season, which only worsened the depth behind Aidan Hutchinson and Marcus Davenport to injuries.
Bill Barnwell d’Espn is suggesting professions before the reduction of the day Tuesday and he was able to see the Lions and the Patriots concluding an agreement involving the Rusher Edge Anfernee Jennings, which Barnwell considers a cup candidate.
Here is Barnwell’s proposal and writing:
-
The Patriotes get: 2026 Sixth round choice
-
Lions get: Edge Anfernee Jennings, 2026 Pick of seventh round
There was a time when New England looted the lions for a talented double-meaning assistant who did not correspond to their system and won a player underestimated at Kyle Van Noy. The lions are there to take revenge. Former third round choice of the former coach of the Patriots Bill Belichick, Jennings is a big pointe racing defender who had nine Knocks Quarterrière last season on 831 defensive snaps. It is not a large pass pass, but it can always be a precious part of a list as a on -board defender early.
Jennings is due to $ 2.5 million in 2025, about half of which is guaranteed. It does not seem to be in the plans of New Coach Mike Truebel, but I like it as an adjustment to Detroit, where the lions could bear to add a little more depth of edge. Josh Paschal is expected to miss the first month of the season, and they cannot be sure of what they will get from Marcus Davenport, which has been limited to only six games in the past two seasons due to injuries. Jennings would be an end of reasonable backup for lions with the potential to play more if necessary. The cost – an exchange of late choice – would not be prohibitive.
Former third round choice, Jennings was not up to its invoicing with the Pats, but it offers a strong depth option for advanced lions.

Jennings collected 2.5 bags in 16 games last season, a total that would have been classified Sixth among Lions defenders And fourth among the on -board rushers.
Jennings really excels as a racing defender, as evidenced by his four campaigns with a Pro focus pro focus run defense grade 71.4 or more. In 2024, he finished with a pff run defense note of 73.0.
It would be logical for the lions to take a swing on Jennings. Not only does he add more depth, but it will not be expensive for Detroit to acquire. We agree with Barnwell that a late choice exchange is a viable proposal.
