Patriots New LB Reveals Heartwarming Goal

Unfortunately for them, the New England Patriots had the NFL's worst pass rush in 2024.

The Patriots finished that season with a league-low 28 sacks, which included a whopping nine-in-one game against the Chicago Bears In pursuit of making that all change under new head coach Mike Vrabel, 6'3", 255-pound edge rusher and former first-round pick out of LSU K'Lavon Chaisson was signed by the Pats as an unrestricted free agent from the Las Vegas Raiders back in March of 2025.

With the Raiders, Chaisson had five sacks last year after starting the season on the practice squad.

After signing a one-year, $3 million contract with New England, he’s spent training camp steadily rising on the depth chart and often times running with the starting defense.

Although he has yet to reach his full potential in the league, Chaisson has been working hard to prove his worth this preseason and is looking forward to his future.

But more than that — he said he's hoping to become the type of defenseman who is able to deliver for the Pats' fanbase.

"It means a lot for sure, I look forward to it," Chaisson said when addressing the media. "That's kind of one of my goals is to just be somewhere stable and just be somewhere where the defense is the same and consistent to where I can go out and give the fanbase and the franchise everything I've got."
