"There's little doubt Chaisson, 26, is the team's top free agent. After the former first-round pick has just ten sacks in five seasons, he's broken out in his first year with New England, recording 45 pressures and notching 6.5 sacks. He's already had a career high in sacks and is on pace to be right around ten for the season."
"Edge rushers are incredibly valuable, and if Chaisson finishes the year with ten or so sacks, he'll be in line for a strong payday. Last season, Landry finished with nine sacks in Tennessee and signed a deal worth $14.5 million a year. That may be a tad rich for Chaisson, given his limited career production, but $10-12 million"
The New England Patriots sit at 10-2 with a top MVP-caliber quarterback and one of the league's best run defenses. The team holds ten picks in the first six rounds of the 2026 draft and already re-signed Marcus Jones. Several role players could be retained, including Jaylinn Hawkins, Khyiris Tonga, and Austin Hooper. K'Lavon Chaisson is the team's most prominent impending free agent after a breakout season with 45 pressures and 6.5 sacks so far, on pace for roughly ten sacks. The Patriots rank 20th in sacks, making effective edge rushing a clear need. Chaisson could command a multiyear deal in the $10–12 million-per-year range if the production continues.
