Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Calijah Kancey says if he’s healthy, he'll lead the NFL in sacks this season.
A 2023 first-round pick of the Buccaneers, Kancey exploded onto the scene in November 2023 with an NFC Defensive Player of the Month award that saw him post two sacks, four QB hits, and 10 tackles. Kancey battled a nagging calf injury into the 2024 season but had another stellar campaign with 7.5 sacks in just 12 games played, including 6.5 in the final nine. In a press conference on Monday, Kancey said he wants to stay healthy and help the Bucs defense perform at the same level as the offense.
