The Detroit Lions haven’t had a player with 10 or more sacks since Ezekiel Ansah did it way back in 2017. Last year the Lions’ pass rush was pathetic. The Lions cut ties with their sack co-leader from last year, Devon Kennard after back-to-back seven sack seasons.
Trey Flowers, who also had seven sacks, returns as the Lions’ top pass rusher in 2020.
Other than Kennard and Flowers, no other player notched more than two sacks, and no other defensive lineman had two or more.
In fact, no player has even cracked eight sacks in a season since Matt Patricia took over as head coach.
