I think something similar for Johnson would be fair, although I don’t see this one happening.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Nov 9, 2026 Khalil Mack to stay put
L.A. Chargers EDGE Khalil Mack... However, I don't believe either of those players will be wearing Honolulu Blue anytime soon.

With McDonald, the Lions could have a situational player in a division where they'll need to put pressure on some quality young quarterbacks like Jordan Love and Caleb Williams.

it seems like the best fit for McDonald is a return back to the wide-nine scheme and a reunion with Robert Saleh out in Tennessee. The Titans have an affinity for bringing in former Jets players
