## Resource

The Panthers just dropped a jaw-dropping $120 million on Jaelan Phillips — the most expensive edge rusher in NFL history. Critics are already calling him overpaid, citing his injury history and lack of double-digit sack seasons. But the Panthers see his disruptive potential as the missing piece to their defense — a gamble that mirrors the Eagles’ successful strategy. With a $30M average annual salary, Phillips will be the fourth-highest paid edge rusher in 2026, even if his stats don’t yet match his price tag. If he delivers, the doubters will be silenced — and the Panthers might just have found their game-changing edge.
