Yahoo Sports’ Charles Robinson reports “that Roger Goodell and NFL owners will discuss the possibility of adding an 18th game to the regular season at next week’s NFL Owners Meetings.”

29 March 2025

Per Robinson, “multiple league and player’s union sources” say that Goodell and the owners are expected to “make more assertive efforts” for an 18th game this summer. Robinson also indicates that team owners would like to opt out of the leagues’ domestic media right contracts, “which Goodell and the owners believe are underpriced.” The contracts are not set to expire until 2029, though. Opting out of the contracts before cementing an 18-game schedule would create more problems fo ...

Texans signed OT Trent Brown, formerly of the Bengals, to a one-year, $3 million contract.

29 March 2025

Brown must recover from a season-ending knee injury suffered on September 23rd, 2024. Assuming he can return to form, though, this is a great signing for the Texans. Brown is an extremely accomplished offensive tackle, with 3,005 snaps logged at left tackle and another 1,579 at right tackle. He can play effectively both as in pass protection and as a run blocker.

Ravens signed head coach John Harbaugh to a three-year contract extension through 2028.

28 March 2025

Harbaugh’s current deal was set to expire after the upcoming season. The 62-year-old head coach has guided the Ravens to double-digit regular season wins in each of the last three seasons. The team has advanced to the AFC Championship Game once during that span while making the playoffs each year, resulting in a 2-3 postseason record. This will be Harbaugh’s 18th season with the Ravens.

Jets re-signed WR Irvin Charles to a contract.

28 March 2025

Charles rarely produces as a receiver but has proven himself to be an elite special teams player. His 88.6 PFF special teams grade ranks seventh among more than 225 NFL players to record at least 210 special teams snaps in 2024. He boasts 13 special teams tackles in his two-year NFL career.

Falcons signed TE Teagan Quitoriano, formerly of the Texans, to a contract.

28 March 2025

Quitoriano will settle into a backup role behind Kyle Pitts, Charlie Woerner and Feleipe Franks. The former Texan has dealt with knee, oblique, groin and calf issues in his short career but perhaps a change of scenery will be helpful. He did not earn any targets last year.

Eagles hired Parks Frazier as passing game coordinator.

28 March 2025

Frazier entered the NFL as an assistant to the head with the Colts in 2018. He advanced up the ranks during his time there before parlaying his interim offensive coordinator role in 2022 to a passing game coordinator role with the Panthers in 2023. He spent 2024 serving as an offensive assistant with the Dolphins.

Packers signed LB Kristian Welch, formerly of the Ravens, to a contract.

28 March 2025

Welch has had an adventurous two-year span. The special teams standout left the Ravens roster after the 2022 season, signing on with the Packers in 2023. He then spent the 2024 season playing for the Broncos (Weeks 1-6) and Ravens (Weeks 7-Divisional Round). He now returns to Green Bay, where he previously tallied a career-high six special teams tackles in 2023. Welch has earned at least a 69.9 PFF special teams grade in 3-of-5 NFL seasons.

Steelers re-signed LB Jeremiah Moon to a one-year contract.

28 March 2025

Moon contributes minimally but makes his mark regularly via special teams. His 85.2 PFF special teams grade ranks third among Steelers players and his six special teams tackles ranks fifth.

Lions re-signed OG Kayode Awosika to a contract.

28 March 2025

This will be Awosika’s third season in Detroit. He serves as a trusted, if middling, backup for the team’s interior offensive line group. Awosika earned a career-best 59.4 PFF pass-blocking grade last year.

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports that “the Vikings haven’t closed the door on Aaron Rodgers.”

28 March 2025

With her opening remarks, Russini succinctly stated that “it could happen.” Russini then outlined a hypothetical scenario in which Rodgers “hangs out, and the Minnesota Vikings pick up the phone” and ask him to join a quarterback competition. Internally, the Vikings have apparently maintained the view that “it would be a competition [for the starting quarterback job] this summer.” Russini also adds that “there is also a world where J.J. McCarthy shows up to OTAs and looks as sharp, ...

Raiders signed LB Devin White, formerly of the Texans, to a one-year contract.

28 March 2025

White had a strange season in 2024, first signing with the Eagles in the offseason and eventually being released in-season, having played zero snaps. He was then signed by the Texans, for whom he appeared in seven games. White spent the five prior seasons playing for the team that drafted him: the Buccaneers. His signing with the Raiders reunites White with GM John Spytek, who served as the Buccaneers’ director of player personnel when White was drafted. White totaled 16 tackles and four quart ...

The Athletic’s Joe Person reports the Panthers will hold a top-30 visit with WR Tetairoa McMillan.

28 March 2025

The Panthers’ wide receiver room still needs help. While last year’s first-rounder Xavier Legette prepares to enter his second season, the Panthers’ current WR2, Adam Thielen, prepares for his 12th year. McMillan, who is considered by many to be the top receiver in this year’s draft class, would give the Panthers a big, versatile receiver on the outside who could immediately contribute in three-receiver sets. Currently holding the No. 8 overall pick in this year’s draft, there’s a go ...

Patriots released LB Ja’Whaun Bentley.

28 March 2025

Bentley took to social media to bid farewell to New England. Shortly after, Patriots beat writer Mike Reiss said the team is expected to release him later in the day. The seven-year vet suffered a torn pectoral muscle in Week 2 last season but announced over the weekend that he was fully cleared to return to football, per Reiss. Bentley totaled 100-plus tackles in three-straight seasons before last year’s injury while racking up 8.5 sacks and 15 TFLs over that span. He’ll be 29 at the start ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter said he thinks Brandon Aiyuk (knee) could be “ready to play by midseason.”

28 March 2025


Beat reporter Nick Underhill reports that head coach Kellen Moore and many of the Saints’ “top people” are expected to attend Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart’s Pro Day on Friday.

28 March 2025

Although Derek Carr’s hefty contract is somewhat prohibitive, drafting a promising quarterback prospect is perhaps the most prudent option for Moore, who undoubtedly plans to craft his offense around a talented youngster at some point. Dart has generated some first-round buzz, it would be shocking if the Saints took him No. 9 overall. Underhill notes that the Saints will likely take a look at CB Trey Amos on Friday as well.

Falcons signed K Lenny Krieg.

28 March 2025

Back in February, Krieg wowed teams at the NFL Combine by converting all 14 of his field goal attempts from various distances. He was also impressive at the NFL’s International Player Pathway pro day, which was held on Wednesday. Krieg, who played two seasons with the Stuggart Surge of the European League of Football, had trips to meet with other teams planned, but signed with the Falcons after meeting with them on Thursday. It will be interesting to see if Krieg can make the 53-man roster sin ...

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports WR Hunter Renfrow is meeting with the Raiders.

28 March 2025


The Athletic’s Dianna Russini believes the move to ban the tush push is “getting more momentum.”

28 March 2025

The Packers made a move to ban the tush push earlier this offseason, but soon, teams will have a chance to vote on the rule change. The Eagles, Jalen Hurts, and his fantasy managers have all benefitted from their signature play that became a mainstay in their offense in 2022, but now, it’s possible the league will get the 24 votes needed to ban the play before the start of next season. The league moved to ban the same play last year, but fell well short of the votes needed to implement the cha ...

Bengals signed OG Lucas Patrick, formerly of the Saints, to a one-year, $2.1 million contract.

28 March 2025

Patrick enters his 10th NFL season, playing for his fourth NFL team. The journeyman blocker has never sustained above-average play, but NFL front offices evidently view him as a reliable starter. He earned a career-best 66.3 PFF run-blocking grade last year.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that some NFL teams have graded Shedeur Sanders as a mid-to-late first-round draft pick.

28 March 2025

Sanders has meetings scheduled with both the Titans and Browns next week, so being drafted as a top-two pick is still, of course, possible. In recent weeks, Cam Ward has seemingly solidified himself as the 2025 draft class’ top prospect, though. More narratives will surely spin out of Sanders’ workouts next week, regardless.
