Lions signed EDGE Anthony Lucas.

28 April 2026

Lucas (6’5/256) brings NFL-caliber size and length to the edge, but his 2025 production profile (42 tackles, six havoc plays, 3.5 TFL, 3.0 sacks) reflects an inconsistent translation of traits to impact. He generated 25 pressures on 238 rushes (10.5 percent pressure rate) with just one sack created, underscoring his inability to consistently convert disruption into finishes. Lucas flashes inside/outside rush versatility with long-arm power and occasional chop-rip counters, yet his rush sequenc ...

Lions signed TE Miles Kitselman.

28 April 2026

Kitselman spent two seasons as an Alabama backup before transferring to Tennessee in 2024. In his two seasons with the Volunteers, Kitselman caught 48 passes for 554 yards and six touchdowns, intriguingly averaging 1.42 yards per route run. Both the NFL’s Lance Zierlein and The Athletic’s Dane Brugler celebrate Kitselman’s size (6’5/251) and willingness as a run blocker. He is not an elite athlete and may be best suited to backup duties at the pro level. He’ll battle for a TE3 or TE4 r ...

Free agent WR Jauan Jennings is visiting with the Vikings on Tuesday.

28 April 2026

His market is starting to pick up steam now that we’re close to clearing the compensation pick portion of proceedings. The Dolphins, per Barry Jackson, also reportedly have interest in Jennings. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him signed before the week is out after his initial market went cold.

Browns signed FB Michael Burton.

28 April 2026

Burton visited with the Browns ahead of the draft last week and inks a contract today. He profiles as their fullback this year. There’s no need to be excited about the 34-year-old, but signing a fullback does indicate the Browns should remain committed to the running game this year.

Bears signed T Caden Barnett.

28 April 2026

Barnett (6’4/316) is a durable, ascending interior prospect who started games at tackle before kicking inside to right guard, logging 750 snaps in 2025 with a well-rounded developmental profile. His 9.54 RAS highlights elite athletic traits for the position, pairing outstanding short-area quickness with the ability to execute reach blocks, climb to the second level and mirror interior rushers in pass protection. Barnett allowed just a 1.5 percent pressure rate with one sack across 410 pass-blo ...

Jaguars signed RB J’Mari Taylor.

28 April 2026

Taylor (5’10”/199) spent the first four seasons of his college career at North Carolina Central, where he racked up 1,887 rushing yards and 23 touchdowns before transferring to Virginia in 2025. While he’s a bit undersized for the position and more quick than fast (4.63 40-yard dash), Taylor has been an above-average back when it comes to taking on contact. In his last two seasons, he averaged a respectable 3.49 yards after contact per attempt while forcing a missed tackle on 24.3 percent ...

Browns signed WR Aaron Anderson.

28 April 2026

Anderson (5’8”/191) is an undersized receiver whose best season came in 2024 when he caught 53 passes for 784 yards and five touchdowns. A solid player after the catch, Anderson made his living in the slot, where he played on 90.6 percent of his career snaps, per PFF. His numbers fell off a cliff in 2025 (33-398-0), due in part to injuries to both him and his quarterback, who played through an injury for most of the season. With an underwhelming 47.4 contested catch rate for his career, it ...

Raiders signed WR Chase Roberts.

28 April 2026

Roberts (6’3”/209) is a fifth-year prospect who served an LDS mission after high school from 2019 to 2021, meaning he will be 25 years old in his rookie season. He showed steady improvement over his four seasons at BYU, with his best season coming in 2024, when he caught 52 passes for 854 yards and four touchdowns. Roberts isn’t known for his speed and quickness (4.64 40-yard dash), but is refined enough as a route-runner to make up for some of those things, although he has struggled at ti ...

Rams signed TE Rohan Jones.

28 April 2026

Jones (6’2/238) grew up in Canada and missed his final season of high school football because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Without any recruiting buzz, Jones got his collegiate start at the University of Maine, an FCS program. He climbed the ladder to Montana State in year three and caught nine touchdowns en route to an FCS National Championship appearance. That put him on the Power Four radar via the transfer portal where Arkansas took a flyer on him. Jones was electric as a backup in 2025, aver ...

Saints waived RB Evan Hull.

28 April 2026

The depth behind Travis Etienne begins with Alvin Kamara, who has been rumored to be a release or retirement candidate this offseason, then Devin Neal, Kendre Miller off a season-ending injury, Ty Chandler, and Audric Estime. That Hull couldn’t stick on that roster for an offseason does not speak well to his chances to stick on one at the start of the year either. The 25-year-old will look for another opportunity. The Saints also waived WR Elijah Cooks.

Raiders signed QB Sawyer Robertson.

28 April 2026

Robertson’s (6’4”/218) measurables and arm strength are NFL-caliber, but the accuracy leaves much to be desired. The fifth-year prospect never completed more than 62.2 percent of his passes in any season, although the raw counting totals in his final two seasons at Baylor are solid. In his two full seasons as a starter, Robertson threw for 6,752-59-20, but it’s hard to get around the career completion percentage when stacked against recent QB classes. While he’s proven serviceable in t ...

Chiefs vice president of player personnel Ryne Nutt said the team was “shocked” RB Emmett Johnson was available in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft.

28 April 2026

Kansas City traded up to take Johnson with the 161st overall pick in the draft, adding the Nebraska product to a revamped backfield alongside free agency splash signing Ken Walker III and Emari Demercado. “He’s a juke button, he has very good feet, vision, feel, and he’s very good out of the backfield,” Nutt said of Johnson, 22, who had a 100th percentile college dominator rating at Nebraska along with a 99th percentile college target share. Arrowhead Pride’s Ron Kop, Jr. said the rook ...

Broncos head coach Sean Payton said RB Jonah Coleman “can play on third downs.”

28 April 2026

“Normally, you have to project that,” Payton said of Coleman, the 109th pick in the 2026 draft out of Washington. “A lot of these guys, in college, maybe the protection plan’s different or limited. So you have to develop that, and that’s fine, but (Coleman’s) frame is such that, when you see him, he does a really good job in blocking pressure looks.” Denver front office officials and coaches have been effusive in their praise for Coleman. Broncos assistant general manager Reed Burc ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Steelers “placed the rare right-of-first-refusal tender” on QB Aaron Rodgers.

28 April 2026

It could be a sign that the Steelers want an answer about whether Rodgers will play in 2026 sooner rather than later. The mercurial veteran once again let the NFL Draft come and go without commitment to another NFL season, and the Steelers used a third round pick on Penn State QB Drew Allar. Allar could be an insurance policy in case Rodgers retires in the coming months. The right-of-first-refusal tender will force Rodgers, 42, to “accept a 10 percent raise off last year’s salary, which woul ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Cardinals RB Tyler Allgeier believed he would be the team’s lead back in 2026.

28 April 2026

After playing behind Bijan Robinson in Atlanta for the past few years, Allgeier signed a two-year deal with Arizona worth $12.25 million this offseason, hoping to function as the lead back. There’s vanishingly little chance of that coming to pass after the Cardinals used the third overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on Notre Dam RB Jeremiyah Love. “The Cardinals went ahead of took [Love] I think to the surprise and disappointment of Tyler Allgeier,” Schefter said. Arizona’s backfield is s ...

Rams QB Ty Simpson said he had “secret meetings” with head coach Sean McVay ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft.

28 April 2026

This should put to bed any rumors that McVay was caught off guard by the Rams taking Simpson with the 13th overall pick in the 2026 draft. “They wanted to make it private and didn’t want people to know that they were interested,” Simpson told ESPN Radio on Monday. Simpson said he was told by members of the Rams organization not to tell anyone the team was interested in taking him as an heir apparent to Matthew Stafford, who will start for LA in 2026.

49ers agreed to terms with RB Sincere McCormick.

28 April 2026

McCormick spent time with the organization in 2025, starting the regular season on their practice squad. He did not play a snap for them before bouncing around to three other teams’ practice squads to end the season. He joins Jordan James, Kaelon Black, and Isaac Guerendo behind starter Christian McCaffrey.

Cowboys signed WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling, formerly of the Steelers, to a one-year, $1.26 million contract.

27 April 2026

The deal includes a $187,500 signing bonus and appears to simply be a depth move. MVS spent time with the 49ers and Steelers last season, catching 14 passes for 120 yards and a touchdown. The veteran speedster has bounced around to four different teams since parting ways with the Chiefs after the 2023 season and hasn’t caught more than 17 passes at any of his stops. He’ll likely be battling to earn a roster spot in camp and carries little fantasy value.

Former Steelers HC Mike Tomlin is joining Football Night in America.

27 April 2026

The once-longest-tenured head coach stepped away from the Steelers following the 2025 season and will now take his personality and skills to the booth, joining NBC’s Football Night in America. The network also announced that the entire crew will hit the road every weekend in 2026, meaning the show will be live at the location of Sunday Night Football throughout the season. “I’m excited about just sharing my passion for football,” Tomlin said as part of the announcement.

Eagles exercised the fifth-year option for DT Jalen Carter.

27 April 2026

Carter is one of two Eagles players to have his fifth-year option picked up this offseason, with LB Nolan Smith also having his option exercised. Carter has been a disruptive force for the Eagles since being drafted by them in 2023. The former ninth overall pick has tallied 13.5 sacks and 25 TFLs in 43 career games, and earned Second-team All-Pro honors in 2024. He has also been named to back-to-back Pro Bowls. The decision to pick up Carter’s option means he will remain under contract with th ...
