4 weeks agoThe Cincinnati Bengals are hosting offensive guard Lucas Patrick on a visit on Friday, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. The organization has been working to build its offensive line tasked with protecting quarterback
Joe Burrow over the last few seasons, and Patrick could be the next addition to that group. The eight-year NFL veteran has played in 107 NFL games (64 starts) with the Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears, and New Orleans Saints. The former undrafted free agent out of Duke allowed zero sacks on 330 pass-blocking snaps a season ago for the Saints.

4 weeks agoThe Washington Commanders signed offensive guard Nate Herbig on Thursday, according to NFL.com. The former undrafted free agent out of Stanford in 2019 brings 61 games (30 starts) of NFL experience with him to the Washington offensive line group. The 26-year-old has spent time with four organizations, most recently the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2023 and 2024. Herbig is likely to begin next season behind starter Nick Allegretti, though the team could look to add even more offensive line depth in next month's 2025 NFL Draft.

4 weeks agoVeteran free-agent defensive tackle Benito Jones is signing back with the Miami Dolphins, according to NFL.com. Jones began his career with Miami as an undrafted free agent out of Ole Miss in 2020 and spent two seasons with the Dolphins before two years with the Detroit Lions. He returned to Miami ahead of the 2024 campaign and is back for another year. Overall, the 27-year-old has logged 68 tackles (31 solo), 2.5 sacks, two pass deflections, and 13 run stuffs in 57 career games. Miami could look to upgrade from Jones in the 2025 NFL Draft, but for now, he has a chance to start again in 2025 after starting 15 contests in 2024.

4 weeks agoThe Seattle Seahawks and outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu agreed to a reworked contract on Thursday that will lower his 2025 salary cap number while also keeping one of the team's best edge defenders around for another season. Nwosu had two years and $26.5 million left on his previous deal and was scheduled to make $14.99 million this year while counting $21.17 million against the cap despite two injury-plagued campaigns. His new deal is for two years and $19.51 million, and he's scheduled to make $8 million in 2025 while counting $11.85 million against the cap, which is around $9.4 million less than his previous cap charge. Nwosu can earn up to $5 million of his $6.99 million pay cut back via incentives tied to sacks, playing time and the playoffs. The 28-year-old had a career-high 9.5 sacks in 2022 but has just three sacks and five tackles for loss in 12 games since.

4 weeks agoThe Washington Commanders announced on Thursday that they signed free-agent wide receiver
Michael Gallup to an undisclosed deal. Gallup was drafted in the third round (81st overall) by the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 out of Colorado State and spent the first six years of his NFL career in Dallas before signing last offseason with the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old announced his retirement before ever playing in a game with Vegas before deciding he wanted to come back in 2025. He'll now return to the NFC East, where he'll serve as receiving depth behind
Terry McLaurin,
Deebo Samuel Sr. and
Noah Brown, at the very least. It's a poor landing spot for Gallup potentially returning to fantasy relevance, as he'll also be competing with
Luke McCaffrey and
K.J. Osborn for playing time. Fantasy managers can probably avoid Gallup in drafts this fall.

4 weeks agoThe Cleveland Browns signed free-agent wide receiver and return specialist
DeAndre Carter (hamstring) to a one-year deal for nearly $800,000 guaranteed on Wednesday, sources told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Carter will head to the AFC North in 2025 after spending the 2024 campaign with the Chicago Bears, where he caught only nine of 14 targets for 72 yards and no touchdowns on offense over 13 games (no starts). The 31-year-old will most likely be more of an asset to the Browns on special teams as a kick returner than he will be on offense, as he hasn't had more than 46 catches, 538 yards or three touchdowns in a single season during his seven NFL seasons. Carter missed the final four games last year with a hamstring injury but should be good to go for training camp this summer. He had 17 punt returns for 158 yards and 15 kickoff returns for 479 yards for the Bears in 2024.

1 month agoThe Kansas City Chiefs re-signed defensive lineman Marlon Tuipulotu to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to his agents. The 25-year-old former sixth-round pick (189th overall) by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2021 NFL draft out of USC was on the Chiefs' active 53-man roster for most of the regular season in 2024, but he saw action in only two games (one start) and had four tackles (two solo) in the Week 18 regular season finale against the division-rival Denver Broncos with the team resting most of their starters. Tuipulotu will be competing for a roster spot as interior defensive line depth in training camp this summer in his second year with the team. In 14 games (non starts) for the Eagles in 2023, he had a career-high 22 tackles (13 solo) and two sacks.

1 month agoNFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that the Las Vegas Raiders signed New England Patriots restricted free-agent linebacker Christian Elliss to an offer sheet on Wednesday. The Patriots will now have until Monday to match the Raiders' offer or risk losing Elliss. The 26-year-old received the right-of-first-refusal tender from the Patriots on March 8. Because he was undrafted out of Idaho, the Patriots wouldn't receive any draft compensation if they don't match the Raiders' offer sheet. In his first full season in New England in 2024, he had a career-high 80 tackles (42 solo), his first 1.5 sacks, five QB hits, his first career interception, five pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 16 games (five starts). It was solid production for Elliss, which makes it likely that new head coach Mike Vrabel will want to keep the playmaker around.

1 month agoThe Detroit Lions re-signed defensive end Al-Quadin Muhammad to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, according to agents Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey. Muhammad will return to the Motor City in 2025 to serve as a rotational defensive lineman once again, so he won't be worth a look at all in IDP fantasy formats. Last year in nine regular-season games (two starts), he produced just 11 tackles (eight solo), three sacks and five QB hits. The 29-year-old pass-rusher from the University of Miami (FL) entered the NFL in 2017 as a sixth-round pick (196th overall) by the New Orleans Saints. Muhammad spent just one year with the Saints before spending 2018-21 with the Indianapolis Colts. He has only 15 total sacks in his 93 games played (36 starts) over seven NFL seasons.

1 month agoFree-agent linebacker Willie Gay signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday, a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Gay will head back to the AFC after spending the 2024 season with the New Orleans Saints, where he had a career-low 28 tackles (19 solo), two sacks, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries in 15 games (eight starts). The 27-year-old was originally a second-round pick (63rd overall) by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2020 out of Mississippi State. In Miami, we'd expect Gay to be competing for a depth role at the linebacker spot this summer in training camp. He's well off the IDP fantasy radar at the position, with his best season coming in 2022 with the Chiefs, when he had 88 tackles (51 solo), 2.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss, an interception returned for a touchdown, eight passes defensed and a fumble recovery in 13 regular-season starts.

1 month agoThe Houston Texans agreed to a one-year, $35.6 million contract extension on Wednesday to make defensive end Danielle Hunter the league's second-highest-paid defensive end, sources told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Hunter will make $32 million in 2025 (a $12.5 million raise) and $55.1 million ($54.1 million fully guaranteed) over the next two seasons. After signing a two-year, $49 million contract with Houston last offseason, the 30-year-old five-time Pro Bowler had 46 tackles (31 solo), 12 sacks, 17 tackles for loss, 23 QB hits and a forced fumble in 17 regular-season starts in his first year with the team. The former third-round pick (88th overall) by the Minnesota Vikings in 2015 out of LSU has been a Pro Bowler in each of the last three years and has double-digit sacks in each of the last three years as well. He has 99.5 career sacks in nine NFL seasons and will be a starting defensive lineman in IDP leagues yet again.

1 month agoThe New Orleans Saints reworked wide receiver
Cedrick Wilson Jr.'s contract on Wednesday, cutting his 2025 base salary from $3.4 million to the minimum of $1.7 million, according to ESPN's Katherine Terrell. Wilson's new salary cap number is $1.67 million after he previously counted $3.4 million against this year's cap, but it still voids in 2026. If the 29-year-old wasn't willing to restructure his deal, Terrell got the sense the Saints were willing to move on after Wilson had only 20 catches on 27 targets for 211 yards and one touchdown in 15 games (four starts) in 2024 in his first year in New Orleans. The poor production even came with
Chris Olave (head) and
Rashid Shaheed (knee) missing time with injuries last year. The Saints will have a new offensive approach under head coach Kellen Moore, but Wilson is still unlikely to be fantasy relevant as receiver depth in the Big Easy in 2025.

1 month agoWashington Commanders wide receiver
Noah Brown (kidney) was cleared two weeks ago to beginning working out this offseason after he missed the end of the 2024 campaign due to a kidney laceration that he suffered in early December in Week 12. Brown had a strong first season in Washington in 11 games (nine starts), catching 35 of his 56 targets for 453 yards, with his only touchdown coming on a dramatic and successful Hail Mary to help beat the Chicago Bears. "I feel like I'm built for this, and I'll come back stronger," Brown said. The 29-year-old was re-signed to a one-year deal to return to D.C. for the 2025 season, but it will be harder for him to make an impact in fantasy after Washington traded for Pro Bowl pass-catcher
Deebo Samuel Sr. Brown should still have a role in the Commanders' offense, but as things currently stand, he's looking like more of a WR5/6 in deeper fantasy leagues.

1 month agoThe Minnesota Vikings announced on Wednesday that they agreed to terms on an undisclosed deal with free-agent wide receiver
Rondale Moore (knee). Moore will stay in the NFC after signing with the Atlanta Falcons last offseason. Unfortunately, he didn't end up playing at all after suffering a season-ending knee injury during a joint training camp practice in the summer. The 24-year-old former second-round selection (49th overall) by the Arizona Cardinals in 2021 out of Purdue caught just 135 passes for 1,201 yards and three touchdowns on 182 targets in 39 games (23 starts) in his first three years in the NFL with Arizona and will now head to Minnesota to provide receiving depth. Fantasy-wise, this is probably one of the worst possible landing spots for the speed 5-foot-7 wideout, as he'll be the WR4, at best, behind
Justin Jefferson,
Jordan Addison and
Jalen Nailor.
