Dayon Hayes brings veteran edge-rush juice and SEC-tested production
Dayon Hayes is a veteran Texas A&M edge defender who has flashed real disruption, including 97 career tackles, 31 tackles for loss and 14 sacks across 43 games before and during his Aggies stint. His calling card is a quick first step, strong power-move profile and the ability to play through contact, but the bigger differentiator is his resilience: after an injury-hampered stretch earlier in his career, he stayed healthier and earned SEC Defensive Line Player of the Week honors in 2025. He looks like a fit for teams wanting experienced pass-rush impact, not just traits.
