Summary
Sam Eguavoen carries a 36.0 dynasty score, ranking 415th at LB. The 32-year-old linebacker enters 2026 with a 91st percentile durability grade.
Projection Rationale
Eguavoen’s limited production, as indicated by his 4 solo tackles in 17 games, suggests a decreased role for him. Additionally, his 50th percentile efficiency grade and 91st percentile durability grade suggest he will see more snaps, but his production will likely remain limited. With zero guaranteed remaining on his contract, Eguavoen’s role security is uncertain and will likely be influenced by the team’s offseason decisions. His ability to adapt to a new defensive scheme will be key to determining his future prospects.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. At 32 years old, Eguavoen’s durability grade remains high, but his production decline suggests an aging trajectory.
Opportunity Notes
Eguavoen played in all 17 games, but his snap share trended down. With a 50th percentile usage grade, Eguavoen may struggle to secure a starting role, potentially limiting his overall production.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Eguavoen’s production is limited by the scheme’s focus on blitzing, which may not be conducive to his playing style.
Trend Assessment
Declining: Eguavoen’s recent production has been on a downward trajectory due to his 7th percentile Verdict grade, indicating a decline in overall performance.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: LB3-LB5, Eguavoen must secure a starting role and increase his production to reach this ceiling. Floor: LB6-LB8, Eguavoen’s trade value of 882 suggests he is a mid-tier linebacker.
