Griffen has 20 tackles and 2.5 sacks in seven games with the Cowboys so far this season.
Detroit's struggled to get consistent pressure on the quarterback this year, but have done a better job in recent weeks. Detroit's averaged 18 pressures per game the last two weeks in wins over Jacksonville and Atlanta, a big improvement over the 11 pressures they averaged per game over the first month of season when they started 1-3.
Defensive end Romeo Okwara leads the Lions with 4.0 sacks and has a forced fumble and a recovered fumble the last two weeks. As a unit, however, the Lions have just eight sacks this season, which are the fifth fewest in the NFL.
Griffen, 33, will join Okwara and Trey Flowers as a pass rusher off the edge for the Lions.
