The New England Patriots have made a significant addition to their defense with the signing of linebacker Harold Landry to a three-year contract worth $43.5 million, including $43.5 million guaranteed. Landry, who spent the first seven years of his career with the Tennessee Titans, is returning to the field after missing the entire 2022 season due to an ACL tear. Known for his exceptional pass-rushing skills, he has accumulated 50.5 sacks in his six active seasons, alongside strong performances against the run.

In his last season, Landry notched up 71 tackles and nine sacks, showcasing his ability to be a key defensive player. The Patriots, under head coach Mike Vrabel, are expected to benefit significantly from Landry's talents as they seek to bolster their playoff aspirations.
