Latest Fantasy Rumors
Labeled as underrated free agent
Chaisson is labeled as a top-five sleeper free agent by Gregg Rosenthal of NFL.com.
ANALYSIS
Rosenthal labels Chaisson as "one of the possible gems" of the free-agent market, considering the edge rusher's body of work over the last two seasons. The 2020 first-round pick of the Jaguars has compiled 12.5 sacks, 26 quarterback hits and three forced fumbles since the start of the 2024 campaign, and Rosenthal also notes Chaisson stepped up during the Patriots' run this past postseason with 3.0 additional sacks, 10 quarterback hits and a forced fumble over four games.
