On April 24, Day 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft is done and teams are shifting gears to free agency for past rush help. Veterans like Jadevee on Clowney, Joey Bolsa, and Cam Jordan stand out as low-risk options to boost defenses right now. Clowney at 33, bounced back last year with the Cowboys, notching 8.56. The 49ers could pair him with their new guy from Dallas while Nick Bolsa heals, or the Bears might grab him cheap to keep their momentum rolling, despite tight cap space. Meanwhile, Joey Bolsa, 30 years old, still flasks with the bills, 29 tackles, 5 sacks, and a leaky 5 forced fumbles. Tennessee has room under the cap to team him with Jeffrey Simmons and build around defense while San Francisco tims fate with the Bolsa brothers. Reunion if the price fits. Cam Jordan, turning 37 this season, stayed productive with 47 tackles and 10.5 sacks. Cincinnati needs him to fix their leaky defense without breaking the bank.
Atlanta eyes a short-term fix amid their sacks' legal issues, and even his old Saints crew might bring him back for one last run. As teams plug these gaff's post-straft, expect quit moves on these proven rushers to shore up lines before training camp heats up. What's your update from NFL News Today, powered by AI? I'm Corey with The Story.
