Mario Addison Drops Weight
5 years agoCarolina Panthers defensive end Mario Addison weighs 255 pounds this year due to better eating habits after weighing 265 pounds in 2018. With Carolina moving to a hybrid defense that will feature more 3-4 in 2019, Addison may be asked to drop back in coverage more often. Addison is very athletic, but dropping into coverage more will likely hurt his overall sack total. He has at least tied for the team lead in sacks each of the last three years and had 9.5 in 2018, although only 1.5 of them came in the second half. Don't be surprised if the 31-year-old disappoints in the sack department with the team's move to a hybrid defense.
