Detroit Lions

Traded for DT Damon Harrison in exchange for 2019 5th Rd Pick

Damon “Snacks” Harrison will leave New York for the first time in his pro career. He started out with the New York Jets, before signing with the New York Giants in 2016. While Snacks is not precisely a sack master, he issues a significant strength in the run-stopping game.

In 2017, Harrison had 76 combination tackles, which was surprisingly ten less than the previous season. This year, he had 31 tackles in seven games and zero sacks. Just like they did with Eli Apple, the Giants shipped off Harrison for some future assets in the draft.

Snacks Harrison had an immediate impact with the Detroit Lions already. He registered seven tackles, and his first sack of the season during his debut. Granted, it was against a weak Seattle Seahawks offensive line. But it wasn’t a bad first day on the job, and trade is already paying off.
