Posts 8.5 sacks in first year in NE Landry totaled 49 tackles, including 8.5 sacks, along with a forced fumble over 15 regular-season games (14 starts) in 2025.

Impact Landry joined the Patriots last March after seven years with Tennessee. The Boston College product logged his fewest defensive snaps (673) since his rookie 2018 campaign, but he still paced New England with 8.5 regular-season sacks. Landry was bothered by a knee injury in the playoffs and missed the AFC Championship Game against Denver, but he was able to return to play in the Super Bowl against Seattle, though he logged just 14 defensive snaps. Landry should be healthy by the start of next season, when he'll in the second year of a three-year contract.

Good to go against Seattle Landry (knee) is active for Sunday's Super Bowl LX clash against the Seahawks.

Impact Landry had his practice reps limited over the last two weeks in order to manage a lingering knee issue. He drew the questionable tag after posting an LP-DNP-LP practice log this past week, but the veteran edge rusher has been given the green light to play in Sunday's Super Bowl after not playing in the AFC Championship Game against the Broncos. Landry saw limited snaps on defense in his two playoff outings with the Patriots, and if that's the case against Seattle, then Elijah Ponder and Anfernee Jennings would both be in line for more work.

Questionable for Sunday Landry (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Super Bowl LX on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Impact Landry was able to return to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday before downgrading to a non-participant Thursday. The linebacker ended the week strong by once again upgrading to a limited participant Friday, and his status for Sunday's Super Bowl matchup with the Seahawks remains in question. If Landry cannot suit up, Elijah Ponder and Anfernee Jennings will likely split snaps as the outside linebacker opposite K'Lavon Chaisson, as they did in the AFC Championship Game victory over the Broncos.

Game Changers: How an 'Arranged Marriage' Fueled the Patriots' Super Bowl Run

Sits out again Landry (knee) did not participate in practice Thursday.

Impact The outside linebacker aggravated the injury during New England's divisional-round win over Houston, missed the AFC Championship Game victory over Denver and didn't practice at all last week. Landry did manage to return to the practice field on a limited basis Wednesday. At this point, it's an open question whether he'll play in Sunday's Super Bowl, and if he can't go, Anfernee Jennings and Elijah Ponder should be next in line to take the field.

Returns to practice Landry (knee) was a limited participant in New England's practice Wednesday.

Impact Landry didn't practice at all last week but managed to make his return Wednesday, albeit in a limited capacity. The 29-year-old was inactive for the AFC Championship Game but is seemingly trending in the right direction toward playing in the Super Bowl. However, if he ends up being unable to play, Anfernee Jennings and Elijah Ponder would likely see increased playing time.

Questionable with knee issue Landry (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Super Bowl LX.

Impact Landry was unable to log a practice this week due to a knee injury that he aggravated in the Patriots' divisional round victory over the Texans. The linebacker could not suit up for last Sunday's AFC Championship Game win over the Broncos, and the lack of practice participation this week means he is likely trending down for Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks as well. Landry will have three more practices next week to upgrade his practice participation in an effort to dodge an injury designation before the big game.

Misses another practice Head coach Mike Vrabel told reporters that Landry (knee) didn't practice Friday, Mike Kadlick of CLNSMedia.com reports.

Impact Landry has now missed back to back practices after being sidelined for the AFC Championship Game win over the Broncos due to a knee injury. The 29-year-old led New England's defense in sacks this season, tallying 8.5 across just 15 appearances. He'll likely need to upgrade to a full practice at some point to avoid an injury designation ahead of the Super Bowl LX matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Thursday Landry (knee) was absent from Thursday's practice, Mike Kadlick of CLNSMedia.com reports.

Impact The first-year Patriot missed the AFC Championship win over the Broncos due to a knee injury, and Thursday's DNP suggests he's still nursing the issue. Landry was one of New England's most productive edge rushers in 2025, recording 49 total tackles, including 8.5 sacks, and one forced fumble across 15 regular-season contests. He likely needs to practice in a limited capacity at some point over the next week in order to play in the Super Bowl matchup against the Seahawks on Feb. 8.

Still dealing with knee injury Landry (knee) was estimated as a non-participant at practice on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday.

Impact Landry wasn't able to suit up for the AFC Championship due to a nagging knee injury, and now his status for the Super Bowl is up in the air. Whether he'll be available will largely depend on how many reps he can handle once New England starts holding practices to prepare.

Won't suit up for AFCCG Landry (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Broncos, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Landry has been able to play through a knee injury in recent weeks, but it evidently worsened, as he'll be unavailable for Sunday's pivotal playoff matchup. Elijah Ponder, Anfernee Jennings and Bradyn Swinson are all candidates for larger roles at outside linebacker alongside K'Lavon Chaisson.

Still tending to knee injury Landry (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Landry has been able to play through his knee injury lately, including during the divisional round versus the Texans, but it's evidently still bothering him as New England begins preparing for the AFC Championship. As long as he's able to return to practice Thursday or Friday, there's still a solid chance he'll be able to keep toughing it out come Sunday at Denver.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go for divisional round Landry (knee) is active for Sunday's divisional-round contest versus the Texans.

Impact Landry has been dealing with a knee injury since Week 12, but he's still suited up for five of the last seven games, including last week's win the Chargers in the wild-card round. The 29-year-old recorded 49 tackles, including 8.5 sacks, over 15 regular-season appearances, and he added two tackles versus Los Angeles. Landry should maintain his starting role on the edge opposite K'Lavon Chaisson.
