NFL Free Agency Preview: Linebackers ( 2023 )

With a new coaching staff in place with the Texans, they elected to move on from Jalen Reeves-Maybin.

I'm not surprised at all that the Lions and JRM came to a contract agreement to bring JRM back to Detroit. The contract is likely more favorable to the Lions than to JRM.

Josh Woods agreed to a contract with the Cardinals. JRM will likely replace most of or all of Woods' roles with the Lions.

While I believe Woods is slightly to somewhat better on Special Teams than JRM, the latter is a more accomplished/ proven LB.
