The New England Patriots couldn’t get home in 2024. No, we aren’t talking about travel woes, rather their complete and total inability to apply sustained pressure on opposing quarterbacks under defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington and head coach Jerod Mayo. The Patriots lead the league in sacks (9.0) following their Week 2 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Landry entered the season with 50.5 career sacks, and had familiarity with the two defensive-minded coaches during their time together with the Tennessee Titans. Chaisson is a former first-round pick who is coming off a season where he finished with 5.0 sacks for the Las Vegas Raiders.
