2025 NFL draft: Highlights of Jets' fifth-round pick Tyler Baron

[ASFN Admin]

The New York Jets added defensive end Tyler Baron in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL draft, drafting him at No. 176.

Baron, a fifth-year senior from the University of Miami, was projected to be a fifth-rounder by NFL.com and the Jets got him with the last pick of the round.

He played his first four seasons at Tennessee, becoming a full-time starter by 2023. That year, he recorded 6 sacks before transferring to Miami for his fifth year. In 2024, he was an honorable mention All-ACC while recording 5.5 sacks over 9 starts and tying for a team-lead 11 TFLs.

He has the size of an NFL edge defender at 6'5", 258 lbs, and his length and athleticism show up in his film.

Cam Ward wasn't the only difference-maker transfer for Miami in Week 1. DE Tyler Baron was a vs. .

Some teams spent NIL money wisely this offseason & others didn't. It's still early but looks like @CanesFootball got their money's worth.#TheDraftStartsInMOBILE pic.twitter.com/nyqFX0lIjy
