Hayden was considered by many to be the best corner in his class when the Raiders selected him with the 12th overall pick in the 2013 draft, but that proved to be a false prophecy.

The Lions were second-worst in the NFL last season in schedule-adjusted Defensive Passing Net Expected Points allowed per play.
