The ruling is a boon for the Titans’ defensive front that enters 2024 with somewhat shallow depth in the EDGE department. Key profiles as a capable No. 2 EDGE, ranking 33rd in pass-rush win rate (12.6 percent) among 64 NFL EDGE players with at least 295 pass-rushing snaps last year.

Key signed late in the free agency period, but it wasn't due to a lack of suitors. After visiting Detroit, Baltimore, and Kansas City, Key lands with Jacksonville. Per NFL Networks' Mike Garafolo, his new deal can be worth up to $7 million. Key joins the Jaguars after racking up eight sacks for the 49ers in 2021. Entering his age-26 season, he should provide pass-rushing help and versatility along the defensive line.

This is Key's fourth visit of the offseason, as he's taken a whirlwind tour of the facilities in Detroit, Jacksonville, and Baltimore. Coming off an eight-sack season for the 49ers and set to play 2022 at only 26 years old, the young pass rusher has created a lot of interest in free agency.

Key is coming off an eight-sack campaign for the 49ers. He's parlayed that into an exploration of the free agent market that is one of the most literal in recent memory, have already made stops in Detroit and Jacksonville. The Ravens are looking for pass rushing help after last year's inability to stop the pass, and after their deal fell through with edge rusher Za'Darius Smith. Key would provide a versatile presence on the defensive line with the ability to rush the passer.
