The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed former Bears defensive end Rasheem Green. The 27-year-old has not had a prolific NFL career but has recorded 19 sacks throughout six seasons. He has also remained healthy, which is essential as a depth piece in the NFL. Green projects to be a backup in Jacksonville just as he was in Chicago last season when he recorded two sacks and 15 total tackles. With Arik Armstead on the active/PUP list, the Jaguars may have felt like they needed to make a move.
Former Houston Texans free-agent defensive lineman Rasheem Green signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the Chicago Bears on Thursday, according to a source. Green was originally a third-round pick by the Seattle Seahawks in 2018 out of the University of Southern California, and he spent the first four seasons of his career in Seattle before playing for the Texans in 2022. In 16 games (five starts) last year, Green had 42 tackles (27 solo), 3.5 sacks, five tackles for loss and eight QB hits. The 25-year-old has totaled 136 tackles (83 solo), 17 sacks, 17 tackles for loss, 35 QB hits, eight pass breakups, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in his five NFL seasons. He'll be a rotational defensive lineman in Chicago in 2023.
The Houston Texans signed former Seattle Seahawks pass-rusher Rasheem Green to an undisclosed one-year deal on Monday, according to sources. Green is coming off a career year with 6.5 sacks, and he'll give the Texans a big post-draft boost off the edge of the defensive line. In addition to his 6.5 sacks last year, Green had 48 tackles (27 solo), six tackles for loss, 15 QB hits and four passes defensed in 17 games (16 starts). He was originally a third-round pick by Seattle in 2018 out of USC. The 24-year-old has 94 total tackles (56 solo), 12 tackles for loss, 27 QB hits, 13.5 sacks, six passes defensed, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 53 career games over four NFL seasons.
Seattle Seahawks free-agent pass-rusher Rasheem Green visited with the Houston Texans on Monday. Green previously visited with the Carolina Panthers and has had talks about returning to the Seahawks. He has also met with the Baltimore Ravens since he became a free agent in March. At this point in the offseason, Green might have to wait until after this week's NFL draft to sign with a team. The 24-year-old had a career-high 6.5 sacks for the Seahawks in his fourth year with the club in 2021, also recording a career-high 48 tackles (27 solo), six tackles for loss, 15 QB hits and four passes defensed in 17 games. Green was originally a third-round pick by Seattle in 2018 out of USC.
Seattle Seahawks free-agent pass-rusher Rasheem Green visited with the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday. He previously had a visit with the Baltimore Ravens and remains in contact with the Seahawks. Seattle has hosted Mario Addison and Damontae Kazee. Green had his best season in his fourth year with Seattle in 2021, recording 48 tackles (27 solo), six tackles for loss, 15 QB hits, 6.5 sacks and four passes defensed in 17 games played. The soon-to-be 25-year-old should at least have a rotational role with a team next season after his breakout year with the Seahawks. The former third-round pick in 2018 out of USC has 13.5 career sacks in 53 games played over four NFL seasons.
The Baltimore Ravens are hosting former Seattle Seahawks defensive end Rasheem Green on a free-agent visit on Wednesday, according to a source. Green racked up a career-high 6.5 sacks in his fourth year in Seattle in 2021, while also adding a career-high 48 tackles (27 solo), six tackles for loss, 15 QB hits and four passes defensed in 17 games (16 starts). The 24-year-old tied Darrell Taylor for second on the Seahawks in sacks for a Seattle defense that struggled to get consistent pressure on opposing quarterbacks. Green was a third-round pick by Seattle in 2018 out of USC. He has 94 tackles (56 solo), 12 tackles for loss, 27 QB hits, 13.5 sacks, six passes defensed, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 53 games (24 starts) in his four seasons with the Seahawks.
Seattle Seahawks rookie defensive lineman Rasheem Green racked up another 1.5 sacks against the Chargers, giving him three in two games. The third-round pick has shown impressive skill up front, and he once again showed that he can be effective against both the run and the pass. Green is being molded to take Michael Bennett's spot this season, which means he'll likely be used as a three-down lineman who rotates inside and outside. With Seattle's defensive personnel changing so drastically this season, it's not clear yet on exactly how good it will be. However, if Green can continue to progress like he has so far, he could be a cornerstone of the next generation.
