Lions encouraged to trade edge rusher Payton Turner before season starts

The Detroit Lions are facing pressure to trade defensive end Payton Turner as they prepare for the new season. Aidan Hutchinson, a standout edge rusher, calls for a suitable complement, but the team has been building depth without securing a top-tier player. Analysts suggest that if the Lions are satisfied with their current edge depth during the preseason, Turner could be a viable trade candidate despite having missed last season due to injury. The team signed Turner in March but could capitalize on his pedigree by moving him if they find a satisfactory deal.
