The Detroit Lions should give Clay Matthews a shot in the Motor City

Last season, the Detroit Lions struggled on all aspects of defense. While the pass defense was notably bad as they allowed the most passing yards of any team, the run stoppage unit wasn’t anything to gloat about either. They also struggled to get to the quarterback as they tied for the second least amount of sacks.

The front office did lots to improve the defense by bringing in multiple defensive players and drafting key players on the defensive side of the ball that could very well make an impact in year one.
