Leon Jacobs, our 103rd ranked linebacker, is best suited to be a primary backup. We project he will end up with the Detroit Lions because they could use a player of this quality after losing Alex Anzalone for an extended period of time. The Lions currently have 7 healthy linebackers, and none are rated better than Jacobs.
The Lions currently have no linebackers under contract beyond the 2026 season, so Jacobs might get longer than a one year deal with the team.
