Ledbetter signed a one-year, $1.775 million contract with the Giants on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 2017 sixth-round pick put together a career year with the Jaguars in 2024, finishing the regular season with 38 tackles (20 solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 15 games. Ledbetter is projected to serve in a rotational role on the Giants' defensive front behind Dexter Lawrence (elbow).

Ledbetter racked up 38 tackles (20 solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 15 regular-season appearances with the Jaguars in 2024.
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter put together a career year despite concluding the 2024 campaign with relatively modest numbers. The veteran journeyman is now scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, though re-signing with Jacksonville may not be out of the question.

Ledbetter worked out for the Giants on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter was last released with an injury settlement from the Jaguars' injured reserve list in August while tending to an undisclosed injury, but his workout Tuesday suggests he's moved on from the issue. The 299-pound defensive end now will wait for another opportunity to make an active roster.

The Jaguars released Ledbetter (undisclosed) from the team's IR with an injury settlement Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter landed on Jacksonville's injured reserve after clearing waivers with an undisclosed injury Aug. 11. The 28-year-old, who has not played in an NFL game since the 2020 season with Tampa Bay, will now be able to join a new squad for the 2022 campaign, once he gets healthy.

Ledbetter reverted to Jacksonville's injured reserve with an undisclosed injury Thursday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter apparently picked up an undisclosed injury during the preseason, thus causing the Jaguars to waive him with an injury settlement Wednesday. After passing through waivers unclaimed, the 28-year-old defensive end will have to sit out the entire 2022 regular season -- barring an injury settlement that would release him from Jacksonville's IR.

The Jaguars waived Ledbetter with an undisclosed injury designation Wednesday, per the team's website.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear when Ledbetter suffered the injury or how severe the issue is. Regardless, if the 2017 sixth-round pick goes unclaimed off waivers, he'll revert to Jacksonville's injured reserve. In a corresponding move, the Jaguars signed defensive end Auzoyah Alufohai.

Ledbetter (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter has missed three straight games due to a lingering calf injury, but it looks like he's now on track for Sunday's NFC Championship Game in Green Bay. He handled less than 30 percent of defensive snaps during the two regular-season contests he suited up for.

Ledbetter (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday evening's divisional-round matchup against the Saints.
EDGE Analysis
After missing every day of practice this week, Ledbetter remains sidelined again due to a calf injury. With the fourth-year pro out, the Bucs defense won't suffer too much as Devin White will now be able to rejoin Tampa Bay on Sunday after being activated off the COVID-19 list.

Ledbetter (calf) has been ruled out for Saturday's wild-card matchup against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Ledbetter wasn't even capable of submitting a limited practice session this week, making his inactivation more a matter of formality. He suited up Weeks 15 and 16 while fielding 30 combined defensive snaps, but he'll be unable to add depth at linebacker Saturday night. With Devin White confirmed unavailable for the game because of his presence on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Ledbetter's absence could become more detrimental.
