Trey Hendrickson

2025 stats: 16 tackles, 4 sacks

After five seasons in Cincinnati, Hendrickson will suit up in a new uniform next season and is one of the top free agents on the market. An injury-hampered season forced Hendrickson to play in just seven games in 2025, but with back-to-back 17.5-sack seasons the two years prior, Hendrickson will be a coveted target around the league, even at 31 years old.

Joey Bosa

2025 stats: 29 tackles, 5 sacks

Bosa could look for his third team in as many years after spending his first nine seasons with the Chargers, including one season with Head Coach Jesse Minter in 2024 when Minter was the Chargers' defensive coordinator.

Khalil Mack

2025 stats: 32 tackles, 5.5 sacks

Mack is another pass rusher with ties to Minter after the two spent two seasons together in Los Angeles. Mack is 35 years old and coming off his lowest sack total since he was a rookie, but his ability as a run stuffer and pass rush repertoire will draw interest.

Jaelan Phillips

2025 stats: 53 tackles, 5 sacks

Traded from the Dolphins to the Eagles at the deadline last season, Phillips helped Philadelphia win the NFC East for the second straight year. At just 26 years old, Phillips could be one of the more sought-after outside linebackers on the market.

Odafe Oweh

2025 stats: 38 tackles, 7.5 sacks

After the Ravens traded Oweh to the Chargers midseason, he had 7.5 sacks in 12 games. Could the former Ravens first-round pick follow Minter back to Baltimore?

John Franklin-Myers, Denver Broncos

2025 stats: 25 tackles, 7.5 sacks

Al-Quadin Muhammad

2025 stats: 25 tackles, 11 sacks

Muhammad had a breakout campaign in 2025 with 11 sacks in Detroit. A former sixth-round pick with the Saints, Muhammad spent the last two seasons with the Lions and was with the Bears and Colts before that.

Kwity Paye

2025 stats: 39 tackles, 4 sacks

Paye notched 30.5 sacks over his first five seasons in the league with the Colts. A 2021 first-round pick, Paye could be primed for a sizeable deal as a 27-year-old pass rusher.

Dre'Mont Jones

2025 stats: 43 tackles, 7 sacks

Acquired from the Titans via trade last season, Jones immediately brought juice to the Ravens' pass rush, finishing the season with a career-high seven sacks.

Boye Mafe

2025 stats: 31 tackles, 2 sacks

A 2022 second-round pick by Seattle, Mafe had a team-high nine sacks in 2023. He was a key contributor to the Seahawks' Super Bowl run, but his production dipped in 2025, finishing with a career-low two sacks.

K'Lavon Chaisson

2025 stats: 31 tackles, 7.5 sacks

Chaisson was a valuable addition to the Patriots defense last season with a career-high 7.5 sacks. A first-round pick by the Jaguars, Chaisson could be looking for his fourth team in four years.

Kyle Van Noy

2025 stats: 20 tackles, 2 sacks

Van Noy has been a productive player for the Ravens since joining the team in 2023. He had nine sacks in his first year and a career-high 12.5 in 2024. However, he had his lowest sack total since 2016 last season. Van Noy has said he still has more left in the tank and has welcomed a potential return to Baltimore.

Von Miller

2025 stats: 26 tackles, 9 sacks

Miller will turn 37 years old later this month but is still more than capable of getting to the quarterback. The former Denver Bronco had a team-high nine sacks for the Commanders last season after playing the three previous years in Buffalo.

Haason Reddick

2025 stats: 31 tackles, 2.5 sacks

Reddick played 13 games for the Buccaneers last season following stints with the Jets, Eagles, and Panthers. The 31-year-old former first-round pick had four straight seasons with double-digit sacks but posted just 3.5 over the previous two seasons.

Jadeveon Clowney

2025 stats: 41 tackles, 8.5 sacks

Clowney could find himself on his fifth team in as many years. The 33-year-old had 9.5 sacks in Baltimore in 2023 and remains a consistent threat to affect the quarterback.

Malcom Koonce

2025 stats: 30 tackles, 4.5 sacks

Koonce spent his first four seasons in the league with the Raiders, notching 14.5 career sacks. A 2021 third-round pick out of Buffalo, Koonce is young and durable, having not missed a game since his rookie season.

Leonard Floyd

2025 stats: 19 tackles, 3.5 sacks

The 33-year-old Floyd has 70 career sacks and has made stops in Atlanta, San Francisco, Buffalo, Los Angeles, and Chicago. The Georgia native had five straight seasons with 8.5+ sacks before having his lowest sack total since 2019 last season.

Cameron Jordan

2025 stats: 47 tackles, 10.5 sacks

Seeing Jordan in a different uniform would be a surprise considering he's spent all 15 years of his career with the Saints. If he did suit up elsewhere, the 36-year-old Jordan would be a veteran presence with 132 career sacks.

Arnold Ebiketie

2025 stats: 36 tackles, 2 sacks

Drafted by the Falcons out of Penn State in 2022, Ebiketie has been a consistent pass rusher for Atlanta over the last four seasons, generating 16.5 sacks.

Joseph Ossai

2025 stats: 43 tackles, 5 sacks

Ossai had the second-most sacks on the Bengals in 2025 and could be looking for a new home after re-signing with Cincinnati last offseason.

Derek Barnett

2025 stats: 21 tackles, 5 sacks

A former first-round pick by the Eagles, Barnett was a valuable contributor to the Texans defense the past three seasons, notching 12.5 sacks.
