Signed a two-year, $17 million contract with the Buccaneers in March of 2026.
Agrees to two-year deal with Bucs
Anzalone (concussion) agreed to a two-year, $17 million contract with the Buccaneers on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Anzalone's deal can be made official when the new league year begins Wednesday. He has recovered from a concussion that sidelined him down the stretch in 2025. The 31-year-old linebacker had 95 tackles in 16 games for the Lions prior to the injury in 2025, and he notched 490 tackles across five regular seasons in Detroit after posting only 123 tackles in his first four NFL regular seasons with the Saints.

2020
Anzalone suffered a broken forearm Week 11 of the 2024 campaign, and as a result, the linebacker was limited to 63 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, while also adding five pass defenses over 10 regular-season games, all of which represented the lowest totals of Anzalone's four-year tenure with Detroit. He shifted from middle linebacker to the weak side last season, so he may not challenge the 127 tackles per season he averaged between 2022 and 2023, but Anzalone should remain a productive asset in 2025.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could follow coach to New York
Anzalone might be headed to the Jets this offseason, Tony Pauline of Essentially Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran linebacker is set to become a free agent this offseason, and the Lions aren't expected to make much of an effort to retain the 31-year-old. Anzalone could instead look to reunite with Aaron Glenn with the Jets, as New York's head coach was his defensive coordinator in Detroit. Glenn may not have much job security after a rough 2025 debut with the Jets, but Anzalone may only be looking for a short-term contract at this stage of his career.
