Saints signed WR Brandin Cooks, formerly of the Cowboys.

21 March 2025


Lions signed CB Avonte Maddox, formerly of the Eagles, to a one-year contract.

21 March 2025

Maddox was a fourth-round pick of the Eagles back in 2018 and has spent his entire seven-year career with the team. Playing primarily as a backup, Maddox has started 41 of the 81 games he’s appeared in during his career and has played on 345-plus defensive snaps in every season outside of an injury-shortened 2023. Maddox has played primarily as a slot corner when asked to play in coverage and will likely play a similar role with the Lions.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac reports Aaron Rodgers is at the Steelers’ facility, suggesting a possible deal “could be forthcoming.”

21 March 2025

We can only speculate so far as to what Rodgers’ arrival at the Steelers’ facility could mean, but unless he’s personally inviting Arthur Smith on a darkness retreat, an impending deal is the next most logical guess. The Vikings have seemingly removed themselves from any conversations with Rodgers for the time being, leaving the Giants and Steelers as the only two teams vying for Rodgers’ services at this time. If Rodgers wants to play for a contender next season, it doesn’t take much ...

Giants signed WR Lil’Jordan Humphrey, formerly of the Broncos, to a one-year contract.

21 March 2025

Humphrey is a six-year pro who has spent all but one of his professional seasons with Sean Payton. Now, the former UDFA will leave the comfort of Payton for Big Blue in hopes of securing a meaningful role in an offense that is short on receiver talent behind Malik Nabers and Wan’Dale Robinson. Humphrey posted career highs in receptions (31) and receiving yards (293) last season while also running the most routes (290) of his career. He’ll likely settle in as added depth at the position when ...

Free agent Tyler Conklin is visiting the Chargers on Thursday.

21 March 2025

Conklin has been a model of consistency over the last four years, most recently catching 51-of-67 targets for 449 yards and four touchdowns in 2024. Incumbent starter Will Dissly is a better blocker. Should the Chargers sign Conklin, he would ostensibly fight to be a low-end TE1 for fantasy purposes.

Free agent LB Jerome Baker is visiting with the Browns.

21 March 2025

Baker was dealt to the Titans last season in a trade with the Seahawks and wound up appearing in five games for them. He appeared in a combined 10 games last season while making eight starts and has started 90 of the 104 games he’s appeared in during his career. Baker totaled 61 tackles, two sacks, and two TFLs last season. He’s typically been used as a passing-downs linebacker because of his speed.

Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports Stefon Diggs and the Patriots “intended to remain in contact” after not reaching a deal during Diggs’ visit.

21 March 2025

According to Schultz, the visit between Diggs and the Patriots “was more of a ‘get to know you’ and ‘where you’re at medically’ type of meeting.” Diggs is still recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in Week 8 last season but had a line of 47-496-3 before his injury. He’ll turn 32 midway through next season, but assuming he’s healthy, Diggs would be an immediate upgrade for a Patriots offense that’s short on talent at receiver.

Free agent DL Leki Fotu is visiting the Bills and Raiders.

21 March 2025

Fotu is a rotational defensive lineman who is best suited to playing on early downs. He has 57 tackles, 23 quarterback pressures and four sacks in his five-year NFL career. Fotu spent the 2024 season with the Jets after wearing a Cardinals uniform through the four prior seasons.

Titans signed OLB Lorenzo Carter, formerly of the Falcons.

21 March 2025

The Falcons did not use Carter often last year, 2024 was his second-straight season with under 500 defensive snaps. Carter has just three sacks to his name the last two seasons, which is a little sad for someone who works mostly as a third-down rusher. He totaled seven quarterback pressures and 25 tackles last season. He’s likely just a rotational piece for the Titans.

Browns re-signed CB Tony Brown II.

21 March 2025

Brown largely serves as a speedy special teams player rather than as a coverage defender. He suffered a season-ending injury in Week 8 last year but recorded four special teams tackles for the Browns before that.

Chiefs re-signed DE Charles Omenihu to a one-year, $7 million contract.

21 March 2025

Omenihu had an abbreviated season in 2024, returning from a 2023 ACL. He still notched 12 quarterback pressures and one sack in six games, though. This is a smart deal for the Chiefs. Bolstering the pass rush via a low-cost, one-year deal allows them to continue searching for valuable free agents.

Seahawks GM John Schneider said it is “way too early to tell” if LB Uchenna Nwosu will be placed on the physically unable to perform list to begin the season after undergoing offseason surgery.

21 March 2025

Shortly after Nwosu agreed to restructure his contract, Schneider revealed that the 28-year-old pass rusher underwent surgery for an undisclosed issue. Perhaps the Seahawks’ willingness to keep Nwosu on the roster is a net positive regarding his expected recovery. Nwosu missed the first four 2024 games due to an August MCL sprain. He returned for Week 5 but was forced from play after suffering a thigh injury. He was then sidelined again until Week 14. Hopefully, Nwosu will be health in time fo ...

NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson reports that the Saints have invited Colorado WR Will Sheppard to their local prospect visit.

21 March 2025

Sheppard operated as the Buffaloes’ No. 3 wide receiver last season, catching 47-of-65 targets for 616 yards and six touchdowns. He forced 13 missed tackles while averaging 5.0 yards after the catch. Per Wilson, Sheppard registered a 38.5-inch vertical jump at the Big 12 pro day.

NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson reports that the Lions and Buccaneers have invited UCF RB Peny Boone to their local prospect days.

21 March 2025

The 6-foot, 225-pound Boone made a name for himself at Toledo in 2023, rushing 193 times for 1,384 yards and 15 touchdowns and catching 15-of-18 targets for 216 yards and one touchdown. He forced 52 missed tackles total that year. He then spent the 2024 season at UCF, rushing 34 times for 208 yards and two touchdowns and catching 1-of-2 targets for nine yards. Boone could sneak his way onto a roster via a Day 3 pick or as an undrafted free agent. Both the Buccaneers and Lions would be solid land ...

The Chargers are hosting free agent Tyler Conklin on a visit.

20 March 2025

Conklin has been a model of consistency over the last four years, most recently catching 51-of-67 targets for 449 yards and four touchdowns in 2024. The Chargers have allowed last year’s starter, Hayden Hurst, to test free agency this offseason. Should they sign Conklin, he would ostensibly assume a fantasy-relevant starting role.

The Texans will host East Carolina CB Shavon Revel for an official top-30 visit.

20 March 2025

Revel is coming off of an ACL tear suffered just three weeks into the 2024 college season. He was a well-regarded Group of Five prospect before that though, having broken out as both a coverage defender and run defender in 2023. In 15 games over the last two seasons, Revel forced 14 incompletions, recorded three interceptions, tallied 66 tackles, five of which were for a loss or no gain, and even lined up as a box defender on 139 snaps.

Titans signed OLB Lorenzo Carter, formerly of the Falcons, to a contract.

20 March 2025

Carter is a good fit for the Titans. At 29 years old, he is no longer an every-down player, but with Dre’Mont Jones and Arden Key leading the way, Carter should be able to contribute effectively. He totaled seven quarterback pressures and 25 tackles last season.

Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports Stefon Diggs and the Patriots “intended to remain in contact” after parting ways without a deal in place.

20 March 2025

According to Schultz, the visit between Diggs and the Patriots “was more of a ‘get to know you’ and ‘where you’re at medically’ type of meeting.” Diggs is still recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in Week 8 last season but had a line of 47-496-3 before his injury. He’ll turn 32 midway through next season, but assuming he’s healthy, Diggs would make for an immediate upgrade to a Patriots offense that’s short on talent at receiver.

Free agent DL Leki Fotu is visiting the Bills, following his visit with the Raiders.

20 March 2025

Fotu is just a rotational defensive lineman who is best suited to playing on early downs. He has 57 tackles, 23 quarterback pressures and four sacks in his five-year NFL career. Fotu spent the 2024 season with the Jets after wearing a Cardinals uniform through the four prior seasons.
