The NFL single-season sacks record now stands at 23 after Myles Garrett achieved it in 2025, raising the bar from the prior 22.5 shared by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt. Entering 2026, top projected individual totals from models sit around 12-14 sacks for leaders such as Aidan Hutchinson, with other elite edge rushers like Micah Parsons (recovering from a 2025 ACL tear), Will Anderson Jr., and Garrett himself (now with the Rams) rarely expected to approach the mark even in favorable situations. The near-even 50.5% implied probability on any player surpassing 23 reflects this elevated threshold combined with variables including full-season health, pass-rush opportunities on strong defenses, and favorable matchups. A healthy, high-snap campaign from multiple contenders or an outlier performance could shift sentiment toward yes, while typical regression or injuries would reinforce no.
Experimental AI-generated summary referencing Polymarket data. This is not trading advice and plays no role in how this market resolves. · UpdatedThe NFL single-season sacks record is 23, set by Myles Garrett in 2025. Matching the record exactly will not be sufficient; a player must exceed 23 sacks for this market to resolve to "Yes". Only regular season games count. Playoff games, including Wild Card, Divisional, Conference Championship, and Pro Football Championship games, do not count. A player's total is the total he records across all of his 2026-27 NFL regular season games, including games played for more than one team. Half sacks count as 0.5 toward a player's total, per official NFL scoring. Sacks have been an official NFL statistic since 1982.
If the 2026-27 NFL regular season is shortened, truncated, or ends early for any reason, the outcome shall be determined using available official data for completed games.
If the 2026-27 NFL regular season is cancelled, postponed after January 26, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, or it cannot be determined whether any player exceeded 23 sacks within that timeframe, this market will resolve to "50-50".
The resolution source for this market will be official information from the NFL; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
