Lions' Edge Reimagined: Wonnum, Moore Lead 2026 Rotation
Detroit is rebuilding its edge group around Aidan Hutchinson for a more pass-rush–focused rotation. Veteran DJ Wonnum should start opposite Hutchinson, with rookie Derrick Moore pushing for more snaps as the season unfolds. Payton Turner brings upside but durability questions and a limited role. Ahmed Hassanein shifts to a chunky “Big” end to hold the edge, while UDFA options Anthony Lucas and Eric O’Neill vie for development spots. Five new edges (Wonnum, Turner, Moore, Lucas, O’Neill) signal a clear 2026 rebuild compared to last year.
