Pro Football Sports Network's Jacob Infante projected the New England Patriots to sign Haason Reddick to support Harold Landry.
The New England Patriots used free agency and 2026 NFL Draft capital to address edge rusher. In Dre’Mont Jones and Gabe Jacas, the team should have two new pieces to pair on the opposite side of the defense with Harold Landry III.
But Super Bowl contenders adding more depth is never a bad idea. Recently, Pro Football Sports Network’s Jacob Infante proposed the Patriots adding a free agent former All-Pro to their edge rushing group.
On May 4, Infante ranked veteran edge rusher Haason Reddick at No. 8 on his list of still available NFL free agents. Infante then predicted Reddick to play for the Patriots in 2026.
“Haason Reddick reached double-digit sack totals every season from 2020 to 2023, earning two Pro Bowl honors in the process,” wrote Infante. “In the two succeeding years, though, he’s combined for just 3.5 sacks.
“The chances he returns to that elite level of production at this stage seem slim, but an NFL team will take a chance on him to bounce back in their rotation.”
Reddick made second-team All-Pro with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2022. During that season, he had 16 sacks.
From 2020-23, Reddick reached double-digit sacks every season. He also made the Pro Bowl during 2022 and 2023.
