Chandler Jones News
The Las Vegas Raiders are in the midst of finalizing a deal with pass-rusher Chandler Jones, according to Tom Pelissero. Jones will reportedly be signing a three-year contract worth $51 million. The 32-year-old spent each of the last six seasons with the Arizona Cardinals. Last year, he compiled 10.5 sacks and forced six fumbles. He'll be a big loss for the Cardinals pass rush. Meanwhile, he helps strengthen a Raiders defense that was about middle of the pack across the board last season. With the Raiders standard 4-3 defense, he's likely to shift from outside linebacker back to defensive end, where he played in college and with the New England Patriots.
Adding a new pass-rusher to pair with Bradley Chubb is a massive need for the Denver Broncos this offseason, especially in the tough AFC West. The Broncos are also in a very good spot to go out and spend in free agency (around $23 million in salary cap space), even after their blockbuster trade for quarterback Russell Wilson. Wilson could help to lure veteran free agents into Denver this offseason as well. NFL Network's James Palmer says to keep an eye on free-agent pass-rusher Chandler Jones. No player has more sacks than Jones since he was drafted in 2012. The Broncos also aren't closing the door on a reunion with Von Miller. The 32-year-old Jones had another double-digit sack season in 2021 and would make Denver's D that much more attractive.
The Arizona Cardinals are not expected to retain linebacker Chandler Jones. According to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN, "it doesn't sound like Chandler Jones will be a Cardinal in 2022." The 32-year-old racked up 41 tackles, 10.5 sacks, and six forced fumbles over 15 games in 2021. He's recorded double-digit sacks in six of his last seven seasons. The veteran should draw plenty of interest when he hits the open market. Jones has been a boom or bust option in IDP leagues, but his presence would significantly improve any defense that adds him to the lineup.
