To be clear, Bolton is one of the NFL's best off-ball linebackers--the 26-year-old topped 150 total tackles for the second time in 2025 and finished 11th in fantasy points at the position. But Bolton's role in Kansas City adds some inconsistency to his production--just two years ago he barely cracked 100 tackles and was LB28 in points per game.
