2025 Fantasy Outlook
At this stage of his career, Dupree is only a rotational pass rusher, but for the fourth time in the last six years, the 32-year-old did finish with at least six sacks in a season. With Joey Bosa now in Buffalo, Dupree could see an uptick in playing time as a rotational piece behind Khalil Mack and Tuli Tuipulotu Read Past Outlooks

Signed a one-year, $6 million contract with the Chargers in June of 2025.
Veteran logs consistent season
Dupree (hamstring) had 16 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks, and added one pass defensed over 16 regular-season games with the Chargers in 2025.
ANALYSIS
The 11-year vet missed just one regular-season game, Week 16 against the Cowboys, due to a back injury, and he also sat out the wild-card loss to the Patriots because of a hamstring issue. Dupree did see a significant decrease in snaps, as he logged 390 this past season after seeing 522 in 2024. The 33-year-old will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and it remains to be seen if the Chargers will be interested in a reunion.

Dupree signed a one-year, $5 million deal with the Falcons this offseason after appearing in just 11 total games for a third straight season. In his last healthy campaign (2019), the veteran pass rusher totaled career highs in sacks (11.5) and forced fumbles (four). Dupree is healthy heading into 2023 and slated to be a starter opposite Lorenzo Carter, while recent draft picks Adetokunbo Ogundeji and Arnold Ebiketie operate as rotational pieces.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Inks extension with Bolts
Dupree signed a one-year extension with the Chargers on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran edge rusher has never again reached the heights of his career-best 2019 season in Pittsburgh that saw him compile 11.5 sacks, but Dupree has revitalized his career to an extent over the last two seasons. The 32-year-old recorded 6.5 sacks across 16 regular-season games with the Falcons in 2023 while also forcing a pair of fumbles, and he proved a good fit in his first year with the Chargers by compiling another 6.0 sacks, his first interception since the 2018 season and a forced fumble across 17 regular-season games in 2024.
