The NFL single-season sacks record stands at 23, set by Myles Garrett in 2025. Through mid-October 2026, roughly six weeks into the 17-game schedule, Will Anderson Jr. leads with 7.5 sacks while Greg Rousseau sits at 6.0 and several others, including Dallas Turner and Chase Young, hover at 5.5. These totals place even the frontrunners well off the historic pace required to surpass 23 over the remaining games. Factors such as defensive schemes, offensive line protections, quarterback quick releases, and the physical demands of sustaining elite pressure limit any single player's ability to accumulate the necessary volume without regression. Trader consensus at 94.5% on "No" reflects these structural and historical realities.
