2 weeks agoPer Darren Urban of the team, the Arizona Cardinals are signing free-agent offensive lineman Royce Newman to a one-year contract. The financial details have not yet been disclosed. Newman, a four-year pro, was selected in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers -- spending three seasons there before a one-year spell with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2024. He logged just three snaps with the Bucs last season. The 27-year-old is the second acquisition for Tampa Bay on their offensive front, joining fellow offensive lineman Kelvin Beachum. Currently, Newman is listed as the team's unofficial starter at right guard on their depth chart. This status may change in the coming months.

2 weeks agoFree-agent defensive back Robert Rochell has reached a one-year agreement with the Kansas City Chiefs, per Adam Schefter. The details of the contract have not been disclosed. Rochell is entering his fifth season after the Los Angeles Rams selected him in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. The 26-year-old suited up 11 times in 2024, garnering one snap. He'll join fellow cornerback Kristian Fulton as the team's new additions at DB. The Central Arkansas alum's lack of production throughout his tenure (15 tackles, one interception) points to him being just more depth for the squad. Rochell could push for more playing time with the Chiefs' defense in flux. However, he's unlikely to make waves in fantasy.

2 weeks agoAccording to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, former Tennessee Titans linebacker Jerome Baker has signed an undisclosed contract with the Cleveland Browns. The Cleveland native split two five-game stints last season with the Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans after a mid-season trade, missing seven games with hamstring and neck injuries. Baker was the epitome of health earlier in his career, missing nary a game through his first five seasons. However, the 28-year-old has not appeared in 10 combined games since 2023. He's a fine run defender and should help a defense that let up the fifth-most points in the NFL a season ago (25.6). Baker is the third addition at linebacker for the squad, joining Devin Bush and Joe Tryon-Shoyinka.

2 weeks agoVeteran free-agent wide receiver
Zach Pascal is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the New York Giants on Saturday. Pascal will reunite with receivers coach Mike Groh from their days with the Indianapolis Colts. The 30-year-old veteran will head to the NFC East after catching just four of 15 targets for 19 yards and no touchdowns in 31 games (one start) with the Arizona Cardinals the last two years. He played in 17 games a year ago but wasn't targeted at all on offense and was primarily a special-teamer. In the Big Apple, Pascal will have an opportunity to compete for a depth role on offense, but he will most likely continue to fill in on special teams in 2025. He faces an uphill battle for fantasy value behind the likes of
Malik Nabers,
Wan'Dale Robinson,
Darius Slayton and the recently signed
Lil'Jordan Humphrey.

2 weeks agoEast Carolina University cornerback Shavon Revel (knee), who is a potential first-round target in this year's NFL draft, visited with the Houston Texans on Friday, a league source told KPRC's Aaron Wilson. Revel has also visited with the New Orleans Saints and is expected to meet with other team's during the draft process. The 22-year-old suffered a torn ACL in his knee last September, but he's expected to gain full medical clearance before training camp this summer. If he lands in Houston, he'd mostly likely serve as secondary depth for a team already loaded with cornerback talent. The 6-foot-2, 194-pounder had one interception, 54 tackles and 13 pass breakups two years ago with East Carolina. Revel brings length and speed but will likely slip to Day 2 just because of the fact that he's coming off a torn ACL.

2 weeks agoThe New England Patriots announced on Friday that they released linebackers Curtis Jacobs and Andrew Parker Jr., offensive tackle Caleb Jones and center Lecitus Smith. Jacobs went undrafted last year out of Penn State before joining the Patriots when he was claimed off waivers last August. The 23-year-old appeared in nine games (two starts) in his first year in the NFL and recorded only four tackles (two solo). A concussion cut his season short and landed him on Injured Reserve. Jacobs mostly played on special teams for the Pats and is now searching for another opportunity as a special-teamer and depth linebacker heading into the 2025 season. Parker, 25, was also undrafted but did not see any action in 2024 for New England.

2 weeks agoThe New Orleans Saints waived defensive tackle Camron Peterson (undisclosed) this week, according to KPRC's Aaron Wilson. Peterson went undrafted last year out of Southern before eventually latching on with the New Orleans Saints. The 25-year-old interior defensive lineman played in one game in the preseason with the Saints before being placed on Injured Reserve right before the start of the regular season. Peterson didn't play all year long in his first year in the NFL and now finds himself on the open market. If he latches on with another team in free agency, he will just be hoping to stick around on a practice squad going into the 2025 regular season.

2 weeks agoThe Seattle Seahawks announced on Friday that they have signed free-agent wide receiver
River Cracraft to an undisclosed deal. The Seahawks continue to add receiver depth this offseason after releasing veteran
Tyler Lockett and trading
DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cracraft will merely be providing depth at the position behind
Jaxon Smith-Njigba,
Cooper Kupp and
Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The 30-year-old veteran and former undrafted free agent out of Washington State heads to the NFC West after spending the last three years with the Miami Dolphins, where he caught only 25 passes on 35 targets for 289 yards and three touchdowns in 29 games (one start). In his seven seasons in the NFL, Cracraft has 32 receptions, 374 yards and three touchdowns on 46 targets in 53 games (two starts). He will continue to be off the fantasy radar in all leagues in 2025 in Seattle.

2 weeks agoFormer New York Jets tight end
Tyler Conklin reached an agreement on an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday with the Los Angeles Chargers, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. Conklin heads to the AFC West after spending the last three years with the Jets, where he had 170 catches on 246 targets for 1,622 yards and seven touchdowns in 50 games (43 starts). While the 29-year-old did have a career-high four touchdowns in 16 games (15 starts) last year, he had just 51 catches and 449 yards (his lowest total since 2020) on 72 targets. The former fifth-round selection (157th overall) by the Minnesota Vikings in 2018 out of Central Michigan has the opportunity to be the Chargers' top pass-catching tight end in 2025, but he'll also be sharing playing time with
Will Dissly. Dissly had a very similar 50-481-2 line to Conklin a year ago in L.A. Expect Conklin to be a touchdown-dependent TE2 in fantasy in his new home.

2 weeks agoThe Minnesota Vikings have had talks with former Tennessee Titans quarterback
Ryan Tannehill about a potential deal, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Talks are ongoing but nothing is imminent at this moment. For the time being, the Vikings have told free-agent QB
Aaron Rodgers that they are not interested and are moving ahead full steam with last year's first-rounder,
J.J. McCarthy (knee), as their starting signal-caller in 2025. However, after both
Sam Darnold and
Daniel Jones left in free agency this offseason, the Vikes continue to search for QB insurance behind McCarthy, and Tannehill could be their guy. The 36-year-old didn't join a team for the 2024 season and played in only 10 games (eight starts) in his final season in Tennessee in 2023, throwing for 1,616 yards, four TDs and seven picks. If Tannehill joins the Vikings, it would strictly be as their backup behind McCarthy.

2 weeks agoFree-agent defensive back Avonte Maddox signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the Detroit Lions on Friday, according to his agent, Jason Chayut. Maddox will head to the NFC North after spending the first seven years of his NFL career with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he racked up a total of 270 tackles (200 solo), three sacks, 13 tackles for loss, eight QB hits, four interceptions, 36 pass breakups, eight forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 81 games (41 starts). The 28-year-old safety started the 2024 campaign as Philly's slot cornerback but was eventually benched in favor of impressive rookie Cooper DeJean. Maddox finished his last year with the Eagles with a Super Bowl ring but had only 20 tackles (nine solo) and five pass breakups in 17 regular-season games (three starts). Expect him to provide experienced depth for Detroit's secondary in 2025.

2 weeks agoThe Cincinnati Bengals have agreed with free-agent offensive lineman Lucas Patrick on a one-year contract. ESPN's Adam Schefter did not report the details of the deal. Patrick will join his third team in four years, previously starting 64 games during stints with the Packers, Bears, and Saints. The Tennessee native appeared in 11 games for the Saints in 2024 (10 starts) while dealing with calf, ankle, and knee injuries. He spent time at center and guard for New Orleans. Patrick is listed behind returning teammate Cody Ford on the team's unofficial depth chart, though he did not allow a sack across 562 snaps a season ago, so he may push for a starting spot. Quarterback
Joe Burrow was sacked the seventh-most times in the league last season (48), so Cincinnati could stand to improve in pass protection.

2 weeks agoWashington Commanders wide receiver
Deebo Samuel Sr. noted in his introductory conference with reporters via The Associated Press that the team is "getting a motivated Deebo." "I'm just ready to get back to work." said the seventh-year pro. "I'm just ready to get around a group of guys, meet with the players, and we just go from there." The 29-year-old hasn't quite reached the heights of his absurd 1,770-yard, 14-touchdown All-Pro season in 2021. However, he has provided a versatile chess piece in Kyle Shanahan's offenses over the years. The South Carolina product also stated that winning is a motivator for him, and he was impressed with the play of second-year quarterback
Jayden Daniels during his first stint in the pros. Samuel Sr. should fit opposite teammate
Terry McLaurin nicely, adding another playmaker to deploy in Washington's dynamic offense.

2 weeks agoFree-agent offensive lineman Trent Brown (knee) is signing a one-year, $3 million contract with the Houston Texans. The 31-year-old started two games for the Cincinnati Bengals in 2024 at tackle, but his season ended early after tearing his patellar tendon during their Week 3 outing against the Washington Commanders. The Texans continue to revamp their offensive line, with Brown making the third acquisition for the team up front, joining fellow tackle Cam Robinson and guard Laken Tomlinson. Brown was once a Pro Bowler during his lone stint with the then-Oakland Raiders back in 2019, though he hasn't quite reached that level since. Injuries have been an issue for the 10-year pro, but the move allows Houston to keep teammate Tytus Howard inside at guard.
