5 NFL free agents who are likely to receive massive contracts during the 2022 offseason
#5 - Chandler Jones
Pass rushing is considered a premium position in the NFL. The best edge rushers regularly receive some of the biggest contracts because of their ability to directly impact the flow of any game. Chandler Jones qualifies for this category and is one of the top available free agents.

Chandler Jones has exceeded ten sacks in each of his last six full seasons. He has been selected to the Pro Bowl three times in his career, including in the 2021 season. The 32-year-old veteran should have plenty of teams interested in signing him.
#4 - Tyrann Mathieu
While safeties are not necessarily considered a premium position, Tyrann Mathieu is much more than your typical safety. He is an extremely versatile and athletic defender with the ability to line up all over in a defensive formation.
He is capable of playing in the deep zone, coming forward for press coverage and is even useful in the box against the run and as a blitzing pass rusher. His wide range of skills should attract many potential teams.
