The team signed K Andre Szmyt in a corresponding move. Okoronkwo was reportedly available via trade ahead of the draft but nothing came of it. He played a pass-rush specialist role in Cleveland last year and tallied three sacks. He should be able to find a similar gig before training camp, but a starting role is likely out of the picture.26 June 2025
General manager Jason Licht also got a new deal. ESPN’s Adam Schefter didn’t have the exact details of the contracts, but it’s safe to assume both men will be in Tampa Bay for a long time. Bowles spent three years as the Bucs’ defensive coordinator and won a Super Bowl in the role during Tom Brady’s run with the team. Head coach Bruce Arians retired ahead of the 2022 season and Bowles was promoted in his place. He has a 27-24 record since taking over with playoff appearances in all thr ...26 June 2025
As ESPN’s Adam Schefter noted, Licht is the league’s fifth-longest tenured traditional general manager, though a few de facto managers have been around longer. Licht has held the title since 2014. The early years were ugly for his front office with just one winning campaign through five years. Licht then signed the greatest quarterback of all time and instantly won a Super Bowl. Licht might not deserve loads of credit for signing Tom Brady. Any manager would do so in a heartbeat. But his pos ...26 June 2025

Shough is the frontrunner for the Saints’ starting job and believes he can work through adversity to take on the opportunity. When Derek Carr retired on May 10th, Shough said head coach Kellen Moore gave him “a bit of a heads-up” when Carr retired, preparing him for the opportunity to take the reigns. Though he will turn 26-years-old as a rookie, Shough’s college career working through injuries prepares him for the long days ahead in New Orleans. He will still need to earn the starting j ...25 June 2025
It’s a homecoming for Griffin, who played four years in Seattle after being drafted in the third round in 2017. Griffin has sinced bounced around the league with stops in Jacksonville, Houston, Carolina, and most recently Minnesota. He appeared in all 17 games for the Vikings in 2023 and totaled six pass breakups with two interceptions. Griffin was a top flight corner in his first Seattle stint and earned a Pro Bowl nod for his efforts in 2019. While he’s more of a rotational corner at this ...25 June 2025
The former fifth-round pick is most famous for receiving an indefinite ban in 2023 due to betting on NFL contests. He was reinstated after a year and had brief stints on the Bills and Texans’ rosters during the offseason. LA signed him to their practice squad in 2024 but he never appeared in a game for the team. Cephus will be fighting for a roster spot this summer if he signs elsewhere.25 June 2025

Goedert said Patullo has made tweaks to the run-heavy Philadelphia offense that could create more opportunity for the team’s pass catchers. “Throughout OTAs, I’ve really loved what he’s doing with the offense,” Goedert said when asked about Patullo, who took over the Eagles offense after Kellen Moore was hired as Saints head coach. “Little changes here and there and I’m really excited for the opportunity just to — with the connection I grew with him the last four years. What he s ...25 June 2025
DeFabo mentioned that Wilson during his collegiate career at Michigan “feasted on in-breaking routes over the middle of the field at Michigan, which should fit Rodgers’ skills.” Wilson will battle Calvin Austin for the team’s WR2 role behind DK Metcalf this season. Steelers wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni said recently that Austin will enter training camp as the clear-cut No. 2 wideout with “everyone else battling for a spot” in a receiver committee. Back in May, ESPN’s Jeremy Fo ...25 June 2025
Murray, per The Athletic, “has noticed a different comfort level with Harrison, a different confidence” in offseason workouts, along with a new physique after Harrison spent the winter bulking up. Murray and MHJ in 2024 had no chemistry whatsoever, especially on downfield shots, where Murray has struggled mightily for several seasons. Unless Harrison can manage to get more separation from defenders and see more intermediate and short targets from Murray, his fantasy prospects likely won’t ...25 June 2025
Per the report, Shapiro hopes to bring more sports, including NASCAR, to Pennsylvania, but is “very worried about the overall budget.” Both the Eagles and Steelers could someday be impacted by Shapiro’s decision but the Eagles’ Lincoln Field lease runs through 2032. It’s unclear whether renovations, strictly speaking, would fall under Shapiro’s “new” stadium policy, but there should be ample time to resolve the issue.25 June 2025
Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Hunter’s $46.65 million contract is fully guaranteed and his "$30.57 million signing bonus is paid entirely upfront. The latter aspect makes him “the first non-quarterback not drafted first overall to receive his entire signing bonus upfront.” Securing such a deal makes sense for a player who could lead his team in overall snaps this season. Hunter, 22, has practiced primarily with the Jacksonville offense this offseason, and Jaguars general manager James Gladst ...24 June 2025
Johnson said, “I’ve been seeing Kenny going like right now with the ones...I think they are going to stick with him through the preseason.” Pickett has been taking snaps with the starters in camp and Johnson confirms this to be the case, with veteran Joe Flacco rotating in after. Pickett flamed out as a starter with the Steelers, tossing 15 touchdowns and 14 interceptions in 24 starts over two seasons. He was the Eagles’ backup for their championship run last season and now seems to be g ...24 June 2025
The Jaguars have a running back situation that could best be described as “in flux” with Travis Etienne on the final year of his rookie deal and Tank Bigsby not exactly establishing himself in the early-down role last season. Management brought on Tuten and LeQuint Allen in the draft, where Jaguars GM James Gladstone made drafting Tuten early a part of his elevator pitch to Jaguars management during his interview. Eventually we’d bet on Tuten getting a shot at a big role in this backfield. ...24 June 2025
Corley’s absence early in the offseason while he deals with an undisclosed injury has not helped. Jets OC Tanner Engstrand is quoted in the story as saying Corley is “going to have to find a way to catch himself up.” The previous coaching staff also reportedly wasn’t enamored with him after drafting him, noting his route running lacked precision and Cimini writing that his “maturity also came under scrutiny, with some in the organization privately questioning his approach.” Corley is ...24 June 2025
Asked about the J.K. Dobbins signing in a mailbag, Kosmider welcomed the opportunity to “dispel this narrative” and said if anything “Harvey has exceeded expectations during his early days in Denver.” While we’re sure Dobbins will get chances in the third-down role, we’re more aligned with Kosmider’s vision of how this plays out — if the Broncos wanted Dobbins to get more work than Harvey, they simply would have signed Dobbins before the draft. Training camp will probably be the ...24 June 2025
Gutekunst told Cheeshead TV that the Packers have had “really healthy conversations” with Tom “about locking him up and certainly that’s something we’d like to do.” Tom had an 87.8 PFF run block grade last year and has developed into an excellent right tackle, though he did notably struggle against the Eagles in the Wild Card round. Gutekunst also noted that they declined Walker’s fifth-year option only because outside linebackers are factored into the dollar amount.24 June 2025
Ruggs is eligible for parole in August 2026 after being sentenced to three years in prison for felony DUI causing death and misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter. There’s a chance the NFL commissioner’s office may suspend him again — that’s unclear and the league office said they’d “review” the matter — but Ruggs would only be 27 at that point and could receive a second chance. It would almost undoubtedly be a situation where Ruggs was fighting for a roster spot, but assuming he ear ...24 June 2025
Despite the fact that we’re now 23 days past the post-June 1 cap hit coming into play, Ramsey has been caught in a value calculus. Teams are wary of overpaying for him in light of absorbing the remainder of his contract. Breer believes a trade will happen “on the doorstep of camp.” The Rams and Chargers were leaked to Adam Schefter as Ramsey’s preferred landing spots.
