The Lions were keen on adding a rusher to their defense after losing Aidan Hutchinson to a season-ending injury and have now gotten their man.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Cleveland is set to receive a 2025 fifth-round pick and a 2026 sixth-rounder in exchange for Smith and a 2026 seventh-round pick.
“Sources: The #Browns are trading standout edge Za’Darius Smith to the #Lions, who add a key presence on the edge to help make up for the loss of Aidan Hutchinson,” Rapoport reported on Tuesday morning.
“It’s Smith and a 2026 7th going to Detroit for a 2025 5th and a 2026 6th. A major move.”
Za’Darius Smith Is A Major Addition
Za’Darius Smith will bring a wealth of experience to Detroit, having been a standout rusher in the NFL throughout his career.
The three-time Pro Bowler has been playing well this season, recording five sacks in nine games. His arrival will undoubtedly enhance the team’s Super Bowl prospects.
