2023 Fantasy Outlook
Armstead dealt with a lower-body injury that caused him to miss eight games and finish with just 11 tackles and no sacks in 2022. The 29-year-old had begun to develop into an interior pass-rush threat while showing good durability - 16 or more games in the four previous seasons - before regressing last year. Armstead still is under contract through 2024, so it will be interesting to see how new defensive coordinator Steve Wilks deploys the versatile lineman after the team signed star defensive tackle Javon Hargrave this offseason.

Landing in Jacksonville
The Jaguars are slated to sign Armstead (knee), Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Armstead, whose deal is reportedly for three years and $51 million, per Adam Schefter of ESPN, immediately becomes a linchpin of Jacksonville's defensive front, fixing a huge need for the team along the interior of the defensive line. The 30-year-old is recovering from surgery undergone to address a torn meniscus, which he played through during the 49ers' postseason run.

Armstead put together a solid bounce-back campaign after struggling mightily in 2020 without the help of DeForest Buckner or a healthy Nick Bosa to attract the offensive line's best blockers. The 27-year-old finished with 63 tackles and six sacks in 17 games last season. Armstead later proved to be a team player by restructuring what turned out to be a slightly overvalued extension that he signed in March 2020.
