Drafted: No. 196 overall
Hassanein’s measurements (6-2 3/8, 267) are nearly the same as those of new Detroit teammate Josh Paschal (6-2 5/8, 268), and they ran identical 4.77-second 40-yard dashes. The productive Boise State star (32 tackles for loss, 22 sacks in 2023-24) was drafted much later than Paschal (Round 2, No. 46 overall, in 2022), likely because of a lack of twitch. Hassanein, who was born in the United States, grew up in Egypt and didn’t learn football until coming back to the U.S. in high school, brings strong effort and a fiery attitude, matching Lions head coach Dan Campbell.
