Patriots

New England signed OLB K’Lavon Chaisson to a one-year deal this offseason, and he’s posted a career high in sacks and tackles for loss. The former first-round pick was quick to give his teammates all the credit in the world for helping him be in the best possible position for success.

“It’s meant everything,” Chaisson said, via Mark Daniels of Mass Live. “I think the biggest thing to me is I always give credit to everyone else who’s on the field. It’s impossible without them. I think having a phenomenal offense puts you in the position where you can rush the passer and pin your ears back and get these opportunities.

“We have great defensive backs. Obviously got All-Pros back there, Pro Bowlers. When you have all these great pieces together, a lot of great things can happen once you’re on the field.”

Raiders

• With a win by the Giants, the Raiders are now on the clock with the first overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. The franchise last selected first overall in 2006 and chose LSU QB JaMarcus Russell.
• Raiders QB Coach Greg Olson on QB Cam Miller being claimed by the Dolphins: “Disappointing to lose him because we put a lot of time in, and he’s put a lot of time in…he’s a hard worker and certainly somebody that we valued here. Hard to lose a guy like that late in the season.” (Gutierrez)

Titans

Titans rookie QB Cam Ward said that he’s grateful for the experience he had during his rookie season and believes that it will help him develop moving forward, even though the team wasn’t successful this season.
