2025 NFL Free Agents: Outside Linebacker

It’s hard to believe the Titans were incompetent enough to let Harold Landry get away. Landry is still somewhat young (29 in the summer), and he has 20 sacks in the past two years.

Khalil Mack notched 18 sacks in 2023. That number dropped to seven last year. He obviously wasn’t as good this past season, but he played better than his sack number indicates. The main worry is age (34).

Haason Reddick is an extremely talented edge player, but he had a very disappointing season last year in which he missed numerous games due to a contract disputes.

Leonard Floyd has at least nine sacks in each of his past five seasons, but he’ll turn 33 just as the 2025 season begins.

Von Miller is just a part-time player at this stage of his career, but he can get after the quarterback very well on the third of the snaps.

Azeez Ojulari is a 25-year-old who logged seven sacks last year despite starting just five games. Ojulari missed the final six weeks with a toe injury.

Dennis Gardeck has emerged as a solid, well-rounded linebacker, but he tore his ACL in October last season.

Matthew Judon was a huge disappointment in Atlanta, registering six sacks last year. Perhaps he’ll rebound, but he could also just be done.

Baron Browning is a quality pass rusher, but has a dubious injury history.

A former first-round pick, Joe Tryon has been a disappointment. He logged just two sacks in 2024. He still has some potential, but time is running out for him.

Darrell Taylor had 23 sacks in three seasons with the Seahawks, but was a big disappointment in Chicago with just three sacks last year.
