Patriots signed RB Elijah Mitchell to a reserve-future contract.

12 February 2026

Mitchell played just one game with the Chiefs in 2025 before being released in December. He ended the season on the Patriots’ practice squad and the team has decided to bring him back for the offseason. Mitchell rushed for 963 yards and five touchdowns as a rookie with the 49ers but has struggled to find a role since. Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson headline the Pats’ backfield, but Mitchell will get a chance to compete for a depth role this offseason.

Falcons hired former Rams special teams coordinator Chase Blackburn as their assistant special teams coach.

11 February 2026

Blackburn was fired by the Rams towards the end of the regular season after several losses were influenced by blunders on special teams. He had been with the team since 2023 but poor special teams showings marked a rough ending to his tenure. Blackburn will get a fresh start as an assistant in the special teams room with the Rams.

Dolphins hired Eagles coach Kevin Patullo as their pass game coordinator.

11 February 2026

As NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero notes, Philly retained Patullo after demoting him from offensive coordinator. The uncomfortable arrangement was not long for this world and Patullo will now head to South Beach. Patullo served as the Eagles’ OC for one year. The team went from seventh in scoring in 2024 to 19th in Patullo’s lone season on the headset. Between Patullo and offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik, who was also fired as an OC at his last stop, the Dolphins are putting together an awfu ...

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Seahawks are interviewing assistant offensive line coach Justin Outten for their offensive coordinator vacancy.

11 February 2026

Outten is one of four internal candidates who will interview for the opening. Tight ends coach Mack Brown, pass game coordinator Jake Peetz, and quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko are the other three names. With one of those coaches getting promoted, another one or two will likely follow Klint Kubiak to Vegas. Per usual, the price to pay for winning the Super Bowl is a brain drain, which will primarily come on the offensive side of the ball for Seattle.

CBS Detroit’s Rachel Hopmeyer reports former Lions OT Dan Skipper will join the team’s coaching staff.

11 February 2026

Unsurprisingly, Hopmeyer notes that Skipper will coach the offensive linemen in some capacity, though his official title hasn’t been announced. Detroit’s long-time sixth offensive lineman hung up the cleats after the 2025 season at the age of 31. It didn’t take him long to return to football, as Skipper volunteered to coach at the East-West Shrine Bowl right after the season. Now he will stay in Detroit as a staff member.

CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz reports the Ravens are expected to hire former Broncos wide receivers coach Keary Colbert as their wide receivers coach.

11 February 2026

Colbert was with the Broncos for three seasons. He previously coached in the college ranks, getting most of his experience at USC as a position coach and an assistant. Colbert will lead a receiver room headlined by Zay Flowers, who just went for a career-high 1,211 yards. The hope will be that Colbert can also get more out of Rashod Bateman, who logged a pitiful 224 yards and two scores in 2025.

Packers named former Raiders offensive coordinator Luke Getsy as the team’s quarterbacks coach.

11 February 2026

Getsy makes his return to the Packers after offensive coordinator stints with the Bears and Raiders, both of which went terribly for Getsy and his quarterbacks. In Green Bay Getsy will work with Jordan Love, who in 2025 had the league’s second best adjusted drop back EPA and a top-five drop back success rate. The Packers QB room will likely be without Malik Willis, who is reportedly being pursued by the Dolphins and Cardinals.

Panthers hired former Dolphins quarterbacks coach Darrell Bevell as the team’s associate head coach.

11 February 2026

Bevell will operate as the Panthers’ new offensive specialist, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Bevell, who was the pass game coordinator and QBs coach in Miami from 2022 to 2025, will reunite with Panthers head coach Dave Canales, the wide receivers coach for the Seahawks when Bevell was the team’s offensive coordinator. After bouncing around the league for the past 20 years, Bevell will look to maximize Bryce Young’s abilities in 2026 for a Carolina offense that last season ran ...

ESPN’s Field Yates believes Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza is “ideal” for Klint Kubiak’s offensive system.

11 February 2026

Mendoza is all but certain to land with the Raiders, who have the first overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. After displaying “elite accuracy and overall arm talent to throw to all levels of the field” during his final season at Indiana — leading the Hoosiers to the team’s first national title — Mendoza should be a good fir for Kubiak, fresh off turning Sam Darnold into a Super Bowl winning quarterback. “Mendoza brings a strong frame and in-pocket mobility with enough creativity to ha ...

Giants hired former Titans head coach Brian Callahan as the team’s quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator.

11 February 2026

It’s quite the downgrade for Callahan after failing in his lone season at the helm in Tennessee. Callahan will now work with second-year QB Jaxson Dart to develop his game following a promising rookie season in which he threw for 15 touchdowns and five interceptions over 14 games, while rushing for another nine scores. Hopefully Callahan’s total inability to develop Cam Ward in Tennessee isn’t a harbinger of things to come for Dart and the Giants.

Ravens hired assistant special teams coach Anthony Levine as their special teams coordinator.

11 February 2026

Levine spent his NFL career as a special teams standout for the Ravens, joining the team as an assistant special teams coach after retirement. With Chris Horton following John Harbaugh to the Giants’ coaching staff, Baltimore had a vacancy. Head coach Jesse Minter knows Levine from his days as a defensive assistant with the Ravens and now hires the 38-year-old as his special teams coordinator.

Bills signed QB Shane Buechele to a reserve-future contract.

11 February 2026

Commanders signed P Tress Way to a one-year contract extension.

10 February 2026

Way made his third Pro Bowl this past year and allowed a career-low 114 return yards. Entering his age-36 season, he’s been with the Commanders since 2014.

New Raiders coach Klint Kubiak said he’ll call plays for the Raiders.

10 February 2026

As expected. He dressed it up by saying it would be a collaborative effort with the staff, but them being part of the game plan wasn’t going to stop the offensive mind from getting to use his difference-making ability as a playcaller. Kubiak should be ready to call plays for his new quarterback (obviously Fernando Mendoza) in 2026 after helping pull the best out of Sam Darnold en route to a Super Bowl win.

RT Rob Havenstein retired from the NFL after 11 seasons.

10 February 2026

He announced it on his Instagram. Havenstein started 148 games over 11 years with the Rams as their main right tackle, playing in two Super Bowls and winning one. The stalwart protector struggled with injuries over the past couple of seasons and couldn’t suit up for the Rams after Week 11 of the 2025 season. He had a 70 or higher PFF grade in nine of his 11 years and, while he likely isn’t a real Hall of Fame candidate, he was an incredibly successful pick by the Rams who should have a shot ...

Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza said he’s a “huge fan” of Klint Kubiak.

10 February 2026

“Throughout this entire season, we actually had a little bit of a Kubiak-[Sean] McVay system, not for our RPO system but our play-action,” Mendoza told reporters in San Francisco during Super Bowl week. “The way [Kubiak] is able to incorporate outside zone and get the edge with the run game, where the running back can collect the edge, hit the hole or cut back and do play-action off of that, and the way he has developed Sam Darnold has been phenomenal,” Mendoza noted. Not that we needed ...
