Will Anderson

Anderson has quickly established himself as an elite defensive lineman both for the Texans and fantasy managers, so his third pro season was all about making refinements to specific areas of his game. The first way he did that was by remaining available. Anderson played in all 17 games for the first time in his career, which helped him log a career-high 691 defensive snaps. That still doesn't quite measure up to the elite edge rushers around the league, but the end result was still career-best marks in both solo (35) and total tackles (54), as well as sacks (12.0). Anderson's 2025 production wasn't just defined by increased volume, however, as he also emerged as a true pass-rushing force. He led all edge defenders with at least 25 pass-rushing snaps with a 25.3 percent pass-rush win rate, which translated to also leading the position in both hurries and total pressures. Overall, Anderson's skills can measure up with just about any player at his position on a per-snap basis, but his IDP value is held back ever so slightly by his total volume of snaps and that's unlikely to change in 2026 due to Houston's excellent defensive depth.
