Jacksonville Jaguars’<\/a> defensive end Danny Striggow was one of PFF’s highest graded undrafted rookies during the 2025 NFL season.<\/p>\n

On PFF’s rankings<\/a>, Striggow received the third-highest grade among all UDFAs with at least 75 non-special teams snaps.<\/p>\n

“His 69.0 PFF run-defense grade ranked third among rookies who logged at least 100 snaps during the regular season \u2014 ahead of first-rounders Mykel Williams<\/a>, Abdul Carter<\/a>, James Pearce Jr.<\/a> and Shemar Stewart<\/a>,” wrote PFF’s Ben Cooper.<\/p>\n

As a pass rusher, Striggow finished the year with seven quarterback pressures and a sack. Among all defensive ends, Striggow ranked 54th <\/a>in overall grade.<\/p>\n

Striggow went undrafted last April out of Minnesota and signed with the Jaguars<\/a>. After spending offseason programs and training camp with Jacksonville, he would make the team’s 53-man roster heading into the regular season.<\/p>\n

Striggow was inactive early on in the year before earning some opportunities on special teams. As the season progressed, Striggow saw more snaps on defense, and by season’s end, he was a regular member of the defensive end rotation.<\/p>\n
