Johnson's (knee) MRI came back negative Monday, and he's healthy headed into the offseason, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Johnson had to leave Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rams with a knee injury, but he's avoided anything notable injury-wise and should have a normal offseason. The second-round rookie appeared in 12 regular-season games for Arizona, making 10 starts, and wrapped up his 2025 campaign with 37 tackles (27 solo), 10 pass breakups and one forced fumble. He should return as a starting cornerback in 2026.

Scourton recorded 47 total tackles (20 solo), including 5.0 sacks, one pass defensed and one forced fumble across 17 regular-season games in 2025.

Scourton, a 2025 second-round pick from Texas A&M, emerged as Carolina's most productive pass rusher during his rookie campaign. He led the team in pressures (34), tied for the team lead in sacks (5.0) and ranked second on the defense in tackles for loss (seven). Among rookie edge rushers, Scourton led the group with 47 total tackles while finishing with the third-most sacks as well. He was a major reason for the Panthers' defensive improvements this season and is expected to remain the team's top edge rusher following the 2025 playoff run.

Davis tallied 65 tackles (43 solo) across 15 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2025. He also had four passes defensed, including one interception, and one forced fumble.

Davis played out the 2025 campaign on a one-year, $1.22 million contract with Miami, setting him up to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. The 29-year-old safety was relatively unreliable in coverage despite handling an every-down role when healthy for the Dolphins in 2025, making it likely that he'll have to compete during the offseason in order to secure a sizeable workload again for 2026.

Jones (knee) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Tuesday.

Jones has been sidelined for the Bears' last 11 games due to a knee injury sustained in the Week 7 win over the Saints, but he could return for the team's playoff run. If he's added to Chicago's active roster in time for Saturday's wild-card round matchup against the Packers, Jones would likely operate as one of the Bears' top reserve tackles.

Gordon (groin) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Tuesday.

The 26-year-old from Washington appeared in just three regular-season games this season due to hamstring and groin injuries, but it now appears he's nearing a return. If activated to Chicago's active roster, Gordon could suit up for the Bears' wild-card matchup against the Packers on Saturday. His practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of his potential availability for this weekend.

Wonnum recorded 42 total tackles (19 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and three passes defensed, including one interception, across 16 regular-season games in 2025.

Wonnum stayed healthy for nearly the whole season after appearing in just eight games during his first year in Carolina in 2024. During his time with the Panthers, he's struggled to get after the quarterback, recording just 7.0 sacks across 24 regular-season games. That production marks a notable drop-off from his 2023 campaign with the Vikings, when he tallied 8.0 sacks in 15 regular-season games. Now finishing the final season of a two-year, $12.5 million contract signed in March of 2024, Wonnum is set to hit unrestricted free agency following the Panthers' 2025 playoff campaign.

Robinson tallied 65 total tackles (21 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and three passes defensed across 17 regular-season games in 2025.

In the second season of a three-year, $22.5 million contract, the 30-year-old from Alabama remained one of Carolina's top interior defensive linemen, starting 16 of the 17 regular-season games in which he appeared. However, Robinson saw declines in several statistical categories compared to 2024, finishing with fewer total tackles (80 to 65), sacks (5.5 to 3.5) and forced fumbles (one to zero). Those dips are partially attributable to the return of Derrick Brown, and the additions of Bobby Brown (concussion) and Tershawn Wharton (hamstring) in free agency, as Robinson played 58 fewer snaps this season. He's expected to remain a crucial part of the Panthers' defensive line following the team's 2025 playoff run.

Moehrig recorded 103 total tackles (65 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and two passes defensed, including one interception, over 16 regular-season games in 2025.

Moehrig signed a three-year, $51 million deal with the Panthers in March and lived up to his contract in his first season with the team. The TCU product started all 16 regular-season games in which he appeared in and tallied a career-high 14 tackles for loss, the most TFLs by a defensive back in a single season in NFL history. His versatility played a key role in the Panthers' defensive success, as he logged 442 snaps in the box, 310 in the slot, 143 at free safety and 94 on the defensive line. Moehrig remains under contract through 2027 and is expected to remain one of Carolina's top defensive playmakers for years to come.

Sieler made 47 tackles (29 solo), including 5.5 sacks, across 17 regular-season games in 2025. He also had one pass defensed and one fumble recovery.

Sieler played two more games in 2025 than he did in 2024, but he nonetheless finished with just more than half the 10.0 sack total he had managed in each of Miami's prior seasons. The 30-year-old defensive tackle is under contract with the Dolphins through 2029, but the team will have a potential "out" in his contract after the 2026 campaign, making it potentially crucial for Sieler to bounce back to his usual production level next season.

Chubb tallied 47 tackles (24 solo), including 8.5 sacks, across 17 regular-season appearances in 2025. He also had two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

Chubb saw his production totals decline compared to last season, despite the fact that he played one more game in 2025. Across 16 regular-season appearances in 2024, he managed 73 tackles (45 solo), including 11.0 sacks, plus two passes defensed, six forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. Chubb will look to rebound in 2026, when he will play out the final season of his contract with the Dolphins.
