After nearly a full 24 hours of hype, the Detroit Lions finally announced that they have traded for Giants defensive tackle Damon Harrison Sr. Though they did not confirm the trade terms, it is believed that the report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter is accurate; It only cost the Lions a fifth-round pick to acquire the All Pro talent.
There’s a good chance Williams is already in Detroit and could practice on Thursday, giving him an opportunity to play in this week’s game against the Seattle Seahawks. That would be very fortunate timing for the Lions’ struggling run defense, as the Seahawks run the ball at a higher percentage of plays than anyone else in the league.
