Harold Landry is on the verge of stardom

Throughout the entire 2019 offseason, anytime there was an update regarding Titans outside linebacker Harold Landry we often heard how he was working on debuting an entirely new arsenal of pass-rushing moves for the upcoming season.

So far through 11 weeks of play, it has become evident that Landry’s new arsenal of moves are extremely effective, as he is clearly inching towards becoming one of the better pass-rushers in the National Football League.

Landry set the tone of the game early, as he got a sack using his signature Gumby-like bend on the Jaguars’ first drive of the game, which ultimately pushed the Jags out of field goal range. That sack was Landry’s eighth of the season and has him on pace to reach double digits by the end of his impressive sophomore campaign.

Everything that intrigued general manager Jon Robinson to trade up in order to select Landry with the 41st pick in the 2018 draft was on full display Sunday afternoon, as he finished the game with five tackles, one sack, and a numerous amount of QB pressures that disrupted Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles from ever feeling comfortable.
