Holmes re-signed with the Commanders on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran defensive lineman played just 153 defensive snaps across 11 regular-season games for Washington in 2024, recording 14 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks. Holmes is likely to play a similar role in 2025, serving as a depth piece on the Commanders' defensive line behind Daron Payne (knee) and Javon Kinlaw.

Holmes and the Texans have agreed on a one-year contract, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Holmes was able to compile 14 total tackles (10 solo), including a career-high 2.0 sacks, over 11 regular-season games in 2024 with the Commanders. The defensive tackle will now likely operate as a depth option behind Sheldon Rankins and Tommy Togiai with Houston in 2025.

Holmes recorded 18 tackles (11 solo), including 2.0 sacks, over 16 regular-season games -- five with the Jets and 11 with the Commanders -- in 2024.

EDGE Analysis

Holmes began the season with the Jets' practice squad and was signed to the active roster after appearing in each of the team's first three games. He was then released in mid-October but quickly found a new organization, signing with Washington a few days later. Holmes took on a rotational role with the Commanders, typically playing 15-25 percent of the team's defensive snaps, but he saw more work in the playoffs and logged a season-high 55 percent of the team's defensive snaps in the NFC Championship Game versus Philadelphia. Holmes is slated to be a free agent upon the start of the offseason and played well enough while with the Commanders to potentially land a deal to fill a rotational role either with Washington or elsewhere.

Holmes signed with the Commanders on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran defensive lineman has been brought in by the Commanders to add depth to a unit that just lost Pro Bowl defensive tackle Jonathan Allen (pectoral) for the remainder of the season. Expect Holmes to serve as a rotational interior defensive lineman when the Commanders host the Panthers in Week 7.

New York re-signed Holmes on Wednesday, John Pullano of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Holmes tallied five tackles and one sack across five appearances with the Jets last season, though his first defensive snaps came Week 18. He'll get another chance to compete for a third-string defensive end role this offseason.

Holmes recorded three tackles in the Bears' 29-13 loss to the Vikings in Week 18, and those were the only stats he accrued with Chicago in the 2022 season.

EDGE Analysis

Holmes functioned as the third-string defensive end for the Bears but didn't record a snap on defense until Week 18. He'll likely battle for a roster spot as an unrestricted free agent.

Holmes (concussion) worked out for the Cardinals on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Holmes was let go by the Giants in late-August after he suffered a concussion during the team's preseason finale. His recent workout with Arizona suggests he's moved on from the injury, and the 6-foot-5 defensive end will now wait for another opportunity to make an NFL roster.

The Giants released Holmes (concussion) on Tuesday, Michael Eisen of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Holmes did not survive the Giants' final roster cuts after he suffered a concussion during the team's preseason finale Sunday. The 26-year-old recorded eight tackles and one pass defended over eight games with the Saints in 2021, and he will now look to get healthy before landing a new contract this regular season.

Holmes has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's preseason finale against the Jets after being diagnosed with a concussion, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Holmes recorded one tackle and was playing well before being carted to the locker room in the first half. The 2018 fourth-round pick spent time with the Vikings and Saints over the last two years, totaling 50 tackles across 22 appearances, and signed with the Giants in May. It's unclear how the injury will impact his status on the initial 53-man roster, but even if he makes the team, he'll likely be a depth piece along New York's defensive line.

Holmes is being evaluated for a concussion after leaving Sunday's preseason finale against the Jets, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Per Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record, Holmes was playing well but had to be carted to the locker room in the first half. He recorded one tackle before leaving the exhibition game.
