Top 10 Detroit Lions of all time

9. Alex Karras, DT, 1958-70

Detroit’s turbo-charged defensive tackle leads the pack in career sacks (100). The 6-foot-2 Iowa product slots second all-time in fumble recoveries (18) for the Lions. Karras tallied three first-team All-Pro awards. No. 71 recently was inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Alex Karras was the dominant defensive tackle of his era who utilized a variety of moves to elude opponent blockers. His durability was evidenced by him missing just one game during his 12-year career and starting in 153 consecutive games.#PFHOF20 | @Lions pic.twitter.com/jCkCM3ee2u
