Robertson-Harris posted 35 tackles and one defensed pass over 17 games (all starts) in 2025.

After working mostly in a rotational role in 2024 during stints with Jacksonville and Seattle, Robertson-Harris returned to a full-time starting role in his first campaign with the Giants. He didn't put up gaudy stats but did provide a steady veteran presence along the team's defensive line. Robertson-Harris will be in the final season of his two-year contract in 2026 and should continue to provide depth and leadership for New York's defense.

Muasau (ankle) started 11 of the 12 games in which he played in 2025, totaling 51 tackles (including 1.0 sacks) and one defensed pass.

Muasau began the campaign in a rotational role, but Micah McFadden suffered a foot injury in Week 1 and never returned to game action, leaving the former with a starting role. Muasau dealt with injuries as well -- he spent four games on IR due to an ankle injury and also sat out one contest early in the campaign due to a concussion -- but he typically logged defensive snap counts north of 60 percent when he was healthy. Muasau suffered an ankle injury in Week 18, and it's unclear if it's an issue that will affect his availability for OTAs. He has two years remaining on his rookie contract and should play a role on defense for the Giants next year, though whether or not he'll continue to start could depend on the health of the team's other inside linebackers.

Pace ended the 2025 regular season with 62 tackles (34 solo), including 1.0 sacks, over 17 games.

Pace started the season with a high defensive snap share due to the absence of Blake Cashman, who suffered a hamstring injury in Week 1. As the season continued, Pace saw diminished defensive snaps. The 25-year-old will enter the 2026 offseason as a restricted free agent, meaning the Vikings will have an opportunity to match any offer Pace might receive.

Rodgers had 66 tackles (47 solo), including two forced fumbles, and four passes defensed, including a pick-six, over 17 regular-season games in 2025.

Rodgers started at outside cornerback in every game of the Vikings' 2025 campaign, showing consistency in the first year of his two-year, $15 million contract with the team. The highlight of the 28-year-old's season was making history with the highest Pro Football Focus grade since 2006, which he earned by logging a pick-six and two forced fumbles in the Week 3 victory over the Bengals. Rodgers will likely remain a starting cornerback for the Vikings going into the 2026 season.

Fiske had 30 tackles (11 solo), including 3.0 sacks, as well as one pass defensed over 17 regular-season games in 2025.

Fiske had an exceptional rookie year in 2024, logging 8.5 sacks as he took the league by storm alongside fellow rookie Jared Verse. His 2025 numbers may look meager in comparison, but Fiske was consistently disruptive and a reliable contributor to the Rams' defensive success. The 26-year-old has yet to miss a game through two seasons and is all set to continue wreaking havoc in 2026 alongside Verse, Byron Young, Poona Ford and Kobie Turner (hamstring).

Durant finished the 2025 regular season with 40 tackles (30 solo) and seven passes defensed, including three interceptions (one pick-six), over 17 games.

Durant logged 814 regular-season defensive snaps in 2025, 74 more than his previous career high of 740 snaps. The starting cornerback started all 17 regular-season games and all three playoff games the Rams participated in, playing out the final year of his rookie contract with a remarkable show of durability and consistency. The 28-year-old is now slated to be an unrestricted free agent, with a return to the Rams likely dependent on contract negotiations and the level of faith that the team has in Emmanuel Forbes as a starting cornerback.

Forbes had 45 tackles (32 solo) and 18 passes defensed, including three interceptions, over 17 regular-season games with the Rams in 2025.

Forbes ended the 2024 season as a healthy scratch for the Rams after being waived by the Commanders in early December. After an offseason of work with his new team, the cornerback has grown into a player who better reflects the first-round draft capital used to acquire him. The 25-year-old was a consistent contributor throughout the 2025 season and will likely compete for a starting outside cornerback job. Forbes has one year left on his rookie deal, and even though the Rams picked him up off waivers, they cannot exercise the fifth-year option typically associated with first-round picks because they are not the team that drafted him.

Ford ended the 2025 regular season with 47 tackles (19 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and added one pass defensed over 17 games with the Rams.

Ford signed a three-year $27.6 million contract with the Rams in March of 2025 after a career year in 2024 with the Chargers. The defensive tackle immediately added power to the center of the Rams' defense, further enabling second-year players Braden Fiske and Jared Verse to attack the offense. Ford will likely enter the 2026 season as the starting nose tackle.

Turner had 48 tackles (24 solo), including 7.0 sacks, and added three passes defensed, including one interception, over 17 regular-season games with the Rams.

Turner had a productive season starting at defensive end opposite Braden Fiske. However, the 26-year-old exited the Rams' NFC Championship Game loss to the Seahawks in the third quarter with an undisclosed injury, and the starting right end never returned to the contest. With no additional information surrounding the injury, it is unclear if Turner will be able to enter the last season of his contract with the benefit of a full offseason.

Lake finished the 2025 regular season with 61 tackles (37 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble while adding 10 passes defensed, including one interception, over 10 games with the Rams.

Lake played the first 10 weeks of the 2025 season without missing a single defensive snap. This impressive streak came to an end when the slot cornerback suffered an elbow injury in the Week 11 win over the Seahawks, which required surgery that would keep Lake out until the playoffs. Fortunately, the cornerback returned for January's playoff run, where he once again logged every defensive snap. The overall consistency from the 27-year-old earned him a three-year, $42 million contract that will keep him as the starting slot cornerback for the Rams through the 2028 season.
