  • Rashan Gary has 31.5 sacks in five seasons but he hasn't hit double digits. Will this be the year he reaches 10+ sacks?
  • Aidan Hutchinson went from 9.5 sacks his rookie season to 11.5 last year. Can he boost his sack numbers again and help the Lions reach their first Super Bowl?
  • Will Blake Corum find significant playing time this year following Rams running back Kyren Williams' strong 2023 season?
