Despite being at an age when most cornerbacks typically slow down, Ramsey has found ways to remain a productive starter deep into his career.

The 31-year-old started last season playing on the outside before moving primarily to the slot and then eventually shifted to safety for the second half of the year.

Ramsey's final stat line reflects that he was doing a little bit of everything for the Steelers. He finished with 88 combined tackles, four tackles for loss, four quarterback hits and three sacks in 17 games.

He had three sacks in his first nine seasons combined, while his 88 total tackles tied a career-high previously done in 2022 with the Los Angeles Rams.

This marks the ninth consecutive year that Ramsey has made the NFL Top 100 list. His high point was No. 9 entering the 2022 season after helping the Rams win a Super Bowl the previous year.

Wagner's inclusion makes him the first player still unsigned to appear on the list. He spent the 2025 season with the Washington Commanders and remained a tackling machine.

The 10-time Pro Bowler recorded 162 combined tackles, nine quarterback hits, eight tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks in 17 starts. He has recorded at least 100 combined tackles every year of his NFL career dating back to 2012.

Last season also saw Wagner become the third player in NFL history to reach 2,000 career tackles, joining London Fletcher and Ray Lewis.

Dating back to 2015, Wagner has made the NFL Top 100 every year except going into the 2016 season.
