Aiden Hutchinson’s frightening prediction if Lions land Garrett

The NFL season wasn’t even over yet, but Myles Garrett sent shockwaves through the league when he announced he had requested to be traded from the Cleveland Browns.

Let the bidding war begin

After eight seasons giving his all for the organization, he expressed his love for the city, for the fans and for the game in a farewell letter of sorts. He stated he did everything he could to try and bring a Super Bowl to Cleveland. Over the last few years the franchise hasn’t corresponded with his intentions and now they are in a rebuilding period as the team looks to get some consistency at the QB position.

The Browns are adamant they don’t want to trade the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year, but there will be plenty of offers made by teams around the league. We already saw Lamar Jackson trying to lure the EDGE rusher to Baltimore earlier this year.

Now Aidan Hutchinson has joined in on the recruitment trail. Hutchinson, who is the heart and soul of the Detroit Lions defense, talked with actor Taylor Lautner on he and his wife, Tay’s podcast “The Squeeze.” Hutchinson told the Twilight actor and life long Lions fan that he has already discussed ths possibility with Garrett.

Hutchinson: would be deadly

“If me and Myles were to pair up, that would be deadly, you know?” Hutchinson said. “I was talking to him, we were at the Honors, and we were just talking about what could be. And although it’s probably unlikely, I think I would be thrilled to play next to him if it were to happen. But, yeah, our whole D-line would be totally elevated, and we would, whew, that’d be a scary defensive line.”

Hutchinson was struck down with an injury in Week 6 of the regular season in a game against the Dallas Cowboys. He suffered a broken left leg that kept him sidelined for the rest of the season, but said the DPOY texted him shortly after that game in early October.

“We get along, too. I’ve seen him these last few years at different things. He texted me after I got hurt -- it was just a cool thing. Guys outside of your own team who reach out to you, so I think he’s a good dude. If he does, great, but I don’t know. We’ll see. But that would be awesome.”
