2022 NFL Free Agency Defense – Linebackers and EDGE
Linebacker, A.J. Johnson
A.J. Johnson is one of the better linebackers in the NFL. He possesses great east-to-west speed and has above-average pass rush ability for his position.
Linebacker, Dont’a Hightower
Even though he is over 30 years old, Hightower has been a steady presence in the middle of the Patriots defense for years. Perhaps New England is ready to turn this position over to a younger person.
EDGE, Chandler Jones
Chandler Jones is a future Hall of Fame pass rusher who averages more sacks per season than Von Miller. He can win against tackles in a variety of ways.
