Before he would join the Rams “Fearsome Foursome”, he was already well established as a star Defensive Tackle with the Detroit Lions.  Brown was a Pro Bowl Selection in each of his final five seasons with Detroit and would also be named to a pair of First Season All-Pros.  Allegedly, Brown was the first player to weigh in at over 300 pounds, but he was not known as much for his size as he was for his agility.

Detroit selected Brown for the Pride of the Lions in 2018.

Inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2007, Charlie Sanders might very well be the greatest Tight End in Detroit Lions history.  An adept blocker as he was a receiver, Sanders was named to seven Pro Bowls and three First Team All-Pros and was close to 5,000 Yards Receiving.  Sanders was part of Detroit's first Pride of the Lions Class in 2009.

The answer to the not often asked question of who is the player who played the most years for only one franchise is Place Kicker, Jason Hanson, who was a Detroit Lion for 21 seasons.

You definitely can’t go by the statistics on this one.
