\"JaredJared Goff\u2019s Detroit Lions tied to $156 million Buffalo Bills defensive end (Image via Getty: Buffalo Bills logo and Detroit Lions logo) The San Francisco 49ers probably do not want to add their defensive end Nick Bosa\u2019s brother, Joey Bosa, to their franchise. If they wanted him, they would have added him.Now, with this not taking a turn the way it should have, or at least the way Bosa brothers\u2019 mother, Cheryl, hoped it would have, several other franchises are predicted to land the Buffalo Bills\u2019 defensive end. With one ranking the highest: the Jared Goff led-Detroit Lions.NFL Network\u2019s Nick Shook reports that a Bills DE could be the perfect edge opposite Aidan Hutchinson. The analyst insists Detroit takes this call as long as it\u2019s affordable.<\/p>\n

NFL Trade Rumors: Jared Goff\u2019s Lions linked to Bills DE Joey Bosa<\/p>\n

Bosa made $13.2 million in 2025. He performed exceptionally well at the start of the season, but then his performance was derailed by the end. And that\u2019s why his earning power in 2026 may decrease.Even at 30, Bosa is in \u2018veteran mercenary territory.\u2019 He has proved in the past two seasons that his injuries would not concern him, but Shook believes they might follow him. If he can take slightly less than his representation thinks he deserves, he may find a home in Hutchinson\u2019s Lions. It would suit both him and the franchise.Detroit recently acquired productive veteran D.J. Wonnum from the Carolina Panthers, and their in-house edge rusher, Aidan, will take up all the attention. So, Bosa may not find it too taxing to be there.<\/p>\n

Buffalo DE Joey Bosa paired with Detroit edge Aidan Hutchinson<\/p>\n

The Sporting News\u2019 Billy Heyen reports the Lions have Hutchinson, but every time they discuss their team needs, a special mention is given to having a strong partner for their star DE. An available free agent could help in this case: Joey Bosa.It would make Lions DE happy to have a talented pass rusher by his side on the gridiron. The attention will still be his, but it will take care of Detroit\u2019s defense as a whole.Touchdown Wire\u2019s Josh Petry reports Bosa earned $13M in 2025, but his performance dipped, so he could be acquired on the cheap and be paired with the Lions\u2019 primary edge rusher. Detroit may have to take a chance on him, hoping he improves.<\/p>\n

Bills edge can fit into Lions head coach Dan Campbell\u2019s defense<\/p>\n

TWSN\u2019s Matt Lewin reports that putting more guys around Detroit\u2019s edge could open more land to dominate for head coach Dan Campbell. The Bills\u2019 edge was a consistent rotational piece; he helped his team throughout the year. He played an average of 36.3 snaps per game for them, and this is also around somewhere that Campbell\u2019s franchise would want him to play. He can still get off the defensive line quickly and possesses a rare ability to disrupt the backfield at a high level. He made the Pro Bowl five times, the last in 2024. In 2025, he recorded 29 total tackles, five sacks, nine tackles for loss, and five passes defended over 15 games for Josh Allen<\/a>\u2019s team.According to Spotrac, Bosa is projected to sign a two-year, $27M contract, giving him an average annual salary of $13.7M. His total career earnings over 10 years are $156M.After so many analysts projecting him for Detroit, would they sign him? Only time will tell\u2026\"Banner<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jared Goff\u2019s Detroit Lions tied to $156 million Buffalo Bills defensive end (Image via Getty: Buffalo Bills logo…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":823196,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2048],"tags":[1817,215,214,53,2086,6214,113,113605,7,1029,5736,872,6,8228,1515],"class_list":{"0":"post-823195","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-buffalo-bills","8":"tag-aidan-hutchinson","9":"tag-bills","10":"tag-buffalo","11":"tag-buffalo-bills","12":"tag-buffalobills","13":"tag-dan-campbell","14":"tag-detroit-lions","15":"tag-dj-wonnum","16":"tag-football","17":"tag-jared-goff","18":"tag-joey-bosa","19":"tag-josh-allen","20":"tag-nfl","21":"tag-nfl-trade-rumors","22":"tag-nick-bosa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116261894958822024","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/823195","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=823195"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/823195\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/823196"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=823195"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=823195"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=823195"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
