Lions could target cornerback Zyon McCollum with fourth-round pick

Detroit Lions are reportedly interested in acquiring cornerback Zyon McCollum from the struggling Tampa Bay Buccaneers. McCollum, 27, signed a three-year extension in September 2025, keeping him under contract for two additional seasons after 2026. As the Buccaneers stand at 0-4, speculation arises about rebuilding efforts, potentially making McCollum available for a trade. Lions' general manager Brad Holmes is under pressure to improve the cornerback position, particularly after missing out on other targets like Joey Porter Jr. from the Pittsburgh Steelers. A fourth-round pick could initiate negotiations for McCollum, who is seen as an upgrade for Detroit's secondary.
