Chris Covington, our 269th ranked linebacker, is best suited to
be a depth backup. We project he will end up with the Carolina Panthers because they
could use a player of this quality to play linebacker. The Panthers
currently have 10 healthy linebackers, and 3 are
rated better than Covington: (Shaq Thompson, Dj Johnson, and Tae Davis).
The Panthers currently have no
linebackers under contract beyond the 2027 season,
so Covington is probably looking at a one year deal, due to his rank, with the team.
