Inks deal with Dallas
The Cowboys signed Sanborn to a one-year deal Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old linebacker from Wisconsin will reunite with Cowboys defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, who served as the Bears' head coach for most of Sanborn's three-year tenure in Chicago. Sanborn had the worst year of his career in 2024, tallying a career-low 35 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, along with three passes defended over 17 regular-season appearances and 228 defensive snaps. Expect the fourth-year pro to compete for one of Dallas' starting inside linebacker roles throughout the summer.

Juan Carlos Blanco surveys the extremely busy Week 11 Sunday morning injury landscape and dishes the latest news on the potential availability of multiple big fantasy names.

It's already been a brutal week for injuries, and now Tyler Lockett is in danger of missing a game for the first time this season.

Devin Lloyd finished Week 15 as the Jaguars' top linebacker with a 91 percent snap share compared to Chad Muma's 15 percent.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Sanborn's career statistics are misleading in terms of his IDP potential. Through two years, he's averaged 64.5 tackles per season. However, the Wisconsin product has played 87 percent or more of the defensive snaps in only seven contests, notching 10.1 tackles per game. The linebacker projects to move into a starting role this year, meaning his weekly tallies should be significantly higher than the last two seasons. Although Sanborn may not post 10 tackles per game, he should be a high-floor IDP.
