Falcons free agency: Leonard Floyd NFL career highlights

The Atlanta Falcons have been looking for an impact pass rusher for years without much luck.

This year, the team will look to veteran Leonard Floyd to fill the void.

With at least 8.5 sacks in each of the last five seasons, Floyd will attempt to bring some consistency to one of the team's least productive positions.

Floyd, 32, was selected by the Chicago Bears with the ninth overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft.

After spending four years in Chicago, Floyd had a three-year stint with the Los Angeles Rams (2020-2022).

In 2021, he recorded 9.5 sacks for the Rams' Super Bowl team playing for Falcons head coach Raheem Morris.

Then in 2023, Floyd played for the Buffalo Bills before landing with the San Francisco 49ers last season.

The Falcons did not re-sign veteran EDGE Matthew Judon so Floyd will take his place in the starting lineup in 2025.
