Tyrel Dodson

The 2023 season began in disappointing fashion for Dodson, as he lost out to Terrel Bernard for playing time as the Bills sought to replace Tremaine Edmunds in the middle of their defense. However, Matt Milano was lost for the season in Week 5 due to a broken leg, giving Dodson another chance to make an impact on the unit. Dodson took advantage of the second opportunity and played over 60 percent of defensive snaps in eight of Buffalo's final 10 games. Having joined the Seahawks this offseason, Dodson has the opportunity to establish himself as among the best inside linebackers in the league. However, he's never been asked to serve as a full-time starter and his contract was for just one year and $2.5 million, so Dodson will need to prove himself again in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
