Khalil Mack staying put? Trey Hendrickson to the Packers? It's the defense edition of the TAFS free agency preview

Khalil Mack, Jevon Holland and Josh Sweat headline the available free agent defensive players. Add in a likely Trey Hendrickson trade and a potential Myles Garrett trade, and it could be a fun week for teams that need help on defense. Robert Mays and Derrik Klassen preview free agency on the defensive side of the ball on this episode of The Athletic Football Show. Then, The Athletic's Lions beat writer Colton Pouncy joins to discuss what it will take for them to get over the hump.
