The Detroit Lions are making waves in the NFL offseason, and their latest potential target is a big one. Pro Football Focus’ Mason Cameron has named the Lions as a top landing spot for San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw, who is set to become a free agent.
Greenlaw, a two-time Super Bowl participant, has been a productive player for the 49ers, racking up 92 tackles as a rookie and earning a two-year contract worth $16.4 million. Despite a torn Achilles in the Super Bowl, Greenlaw could be a solid addition to the Lions’ linebacker corps, which struggled with injuries last season.
With Derrick Barnes set to become a free agent, the Lions may have an opening for Greenlaw to join the team. Could a blockbuster signing be on the horizon?
