Lions Sign DJ Wonnum for Edge Rotation

0:00On March 23rd, the Detroit Lions have signed defensive NDJ-1M to add depth opposite star Aiden Hutchinson. Fans hope for a bigger splash, but this move fills a key roster gap from the offseason. 1M brings solid rotational support to a position that needed help right away. In Carolina over the last two seasons, 1M handled starter level snaps when needed. He is more of a reliable role player than a game-changer though. Experts say pairing him with Hutchinson, who draws heavy attention, could make 1M look even better in that spot. Lions fans are reacting with cautious optimism, seeing this as a low risk addition. A Panthers B writer who covered him noted that 1M stepped up relative to his teammates as a past rusher. Still, his real strength shines in stopping the run. 1M missed most of his first year in Carolina after tearing his quadriceps on Christmas Eve in 2023. He bounced back strong on availability and showed no major drop-off in performance. This signing gives Detroit flexibility heading into
