Since Myles Garrett requested a trade from the Cleveland Browns, speculation has linked the Detroit Lions as a potential destination for the star pass rusher. It makes sense—the Lions need reinforcements on the edge, not just to add depth but to secure a reliable long-term complement to Aidan Hutchinson.
Earlier this month, Hutchinson and Garrett crossed paths at the NFL Honors event, where they were seen chatting in a widely shared photo alongside quarterback Jared Goff. On a recent episode of The Squeeze podcast, Hutchinson opened up about their conversation and admitted that he actively tried to recruit Garrett to Detroit.
“If Myles and I lined up together, it’d be lethal,” Hutchinson said. “We were talking at the Honors, just discussing the possibilities. While it’s probably a long shot, I’d be ecstatic if it happened. Our entire defensive line would be on another level—it’d be terrifying for opposing offenses.”
