Vic Beasley Lands at Number 40 on NFL’s Top 100

Vic Beasley, 2015’s prematurely-labeled bust turned 2016 pass rushing Rembrandt, has added more accolades to his young résumé. Along with his crown as last season’s sack leader and a spot on the 2016 AP First Team All-Pro list, Beasley has been named number 40 on the NFL’s Top 100 list after going unranked in 2015.

It was a breakout season for second-year defender Vic Beasley.

Following a pedestrian rookie campaign, Beasley officially burst on to the scene in 2016, mauling quarterback-after-quarterback en route to 15.5 sacks, leading the entire league.

To say that the rapid and explosive increase in Vic Beasley’s production was expected would be an out-and-out falsehood.
