Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams
Detroit Lions Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Detroit acquired Hall of Fame back Ollie Matson from Los Angeles for veteran guard Harley Sewell on August 20, 1963. The famous names outweigh the actual return: Matson appeared in eight Lions games, rushing 13 times for 20 yards and catching two passes for 20 more, while Sewell played only two Rams games. Detroit gets a narrow edge on slightly greater usable service.
