About Crawford Updated Aug 6, 2026

Productive, disruptive veteran linebacker with real edge-rush juice

Crawford enters 2026 as a proven, high-motor linebacker who already produced 171 tackles, 21 tackles for loss and 12 sacks in three seasons at Buffalo, including a career-best 81 tackles in 2025 and a breakout 8.5-sack season in 2024. He stands out for his pass-rush burst, play recognition and toughness, while also bringing plus durability and academic consistency. The main fit question is coverage: PFF and scouting notes suggest he’s far stronger attacking the backfield than matching up in space, so he’s best for teams that want an aggressive, versatile front-seven piece.[3][5][7][18]
