Epenesa is a former second-round pick of the Bills, spending six seasons in Buffalo. He tallied 24 sacks over that time and intercepted two passes last season. The Browns bring in Epenesa to be depth on the edge, giving him a contract worth up to $5 million for the 2026 season.18 March 2026
Seifert notes that if the league cannot agree on a new collective bargaining agreement with the NFL Referees Association, replacement officials will be considered for the 2026 season. The league is looking for a list of “about 150 mostly small college officials” in its approach to prepare for not reaching an agreement. This approach is similar to what occurred during the 2012 lockout of officials, which ended after Week 3 of the regular season. The current CBA expires at the end of May, putt ...18 March 2026
Dortch is following new Lions OC Drew Petzing from Arizona to Detroit. He turned 29 catches into 206 yards and three scores last year. Dortch is primarily a slot receiver and Amon-Ra St. Brown has the role locked down. At best, the former Cardinal will give ARSB the occasional breather. He could be an interesting PPR option if anything happens to St. Brown, but that isn’t something early fantasy drafters should plan for.18 March 2026
A former third-round pick, Wilson spent all but the final seven games of his career with the Bengals. He started his career as a backup in 2020 but earned a full-time role by his second season. He would go on to start 65 games in Cincinnati before they traded him to Dallas last year. Wilson racked up 565 combined tackles, 11 interceptions, and 5.5 sacks over his six seasons.18 March 2026
Speaking on the creatively titled “The Adam Schefter Podcast”, Schefty said Love watch begins at pick No. 5 with the Giants. He closed out Love’s range at pick No. 9 with the Chiefs. Kansas City just inked Kenneth Walker to a massive deal, though Schefter doesn’t believe that rules them out entirely. The Giants hit on Cam Skattebo in last year’s draft, but the rookie suffered a catastrophic ankle injury that ended his debut campaign early. Love could be in play if they are worried abou ...18 March 2026
Hilton hasn’t played since 2022, so this is a bit of a formality. Still, he deserves a proper retirement blurb. Hilton spent all but one of his 11 seasons with the Colts. His final season came in Dallas and amounted to just 121 yards on seven grabs. He amassed 638 grabs for 9,812 yards and 53 touchdowns during his career. The speedy wideout peaked at an NFL-leading 1,448 yards in 2016. He was also a successful punt and kick returner early in his career.18 March 2026
Davis-Gaither spent the first five years of his career in Cincinnati before singing with the Cardinals last offseason. He started 13 games and appeared in all 17. Davis-Gaither totaled 117 combined tackles with two TFLs and one forced fumble. The team released him at the end of the year. He now reunites with Colts DC Lou Anarumo, who was Cincy’s defensive coordinator when Davis-Gaither played for them.18 March 2026
It was previously reported that the Panthers were getting calls for Andy Dalton. The team then went out and signed Kenny Pickett, making it clear they were moving on from Dalton this offseason. Getting even a seventh-round pick in return for Dalton is mildly impressive for Panthers GM Dan Morgan. Dalton will now replace Tanner McKee as Jalen Hurts’ backup.18 March 2026
NWI posted a minor breakout season with the Titans in 2024. He turned 32 grabs in 497 yards and nine touchdowns. The Dolphins took a shot on him in free agency, but he failed to carve out a role in Miami. Westbrook-Ikhine totaled 11 catches for 89 scoreless yards in South Beach. He will now serve as a depth piece for a Colts receiver room that just traded Michael Pittman.18 March 2026
Scott had brief stints with the Rams and Steelers after leaving Philly during the 2024 offseason. He never appeared in a game for either team. He ends his career with 302 carries for 1,295 yards and 16 scores. Scott famously had the Giants’ number throughout his six seasons in Philly. He faced the G-Men 10 times and scored a total of 10 touchdowns against them.18 March 2026
Jefferson retired in 2023, with most of his best seasons coming under John Harbaugh in Baltimore. He came out of retirement to play for Jim Harbaugh in LA two seasons ago and didn’t miss a beat. He appeared in 13 games with eight starts last year and also started the team’s lone postseason contest. Jefferson broke up seven passes, stole four interceptions, and logged a combined 57 tackles. A $2 million contract suggests a minor role for him this season, but he has proven to be a valuable dep ...18 March 2026
Thomas got his start in the NFL as a fifth-round pick for the Jags in 2020. He made a few starts on defense in Jacksonville but made his money as a high-volume special teams contributor. Thomas signed with the Lions last year and saw a slight uptick in defense snaps while again playing plenty on special teams. Thomas could continue to see more work on defense as an occasional third safety in Cleveland.18 March 2026
Quitoriano appeared in all 17 games for the Falcons last year but did not record any offensive statistics. The bulk of his offensive snaps came as a blocker. In total, he played primarily on special teams, logging 239 snaps on that side of the ball. Hen is likely in line for a similar role in Arizona.18 March 2026
Dillon missed all of the 2024 season while recovering from a neck injury he suffered late in the previous year. He returned in 2025 on a one-year deal with the Eagles. Dillon appeared in the first six games of the year but eventually fell off the game-day roster with Philly’s addition of Tank Bigsby. He finished the season with 12 carries for 60 yards. Dillon will be fighting for a roster spot in Carolina during training camp.18 March 2026
White appeared in 10 games for the Seahawks last year. He caught three passes for 90 yards and a touchdown. With Jake Bobo also under contract for the 2026 season, most of White’s reps will come on special teams.18 March 2026
A former fifth-round pick in Dallas, Clark worked his way up to a full-time role in 2023, just his second season in the league. That didn’t last long and the Cowboys would go on to cut him in the middle of the 2025 season. Houston claimed him off waivers and he would go on to appear in six regular season games as a Texan, plus two postseason contests. Clark is primarily a special teamer at this point in his career, but his experience as a starting linebacker makes him a good depth option on de ...18 March 2026
Lynch spent that past two seasons in Tennessee after three years with the Vikings as a rotational defensive lineman and special teams player. Lynch, 27, played in all 17 regular season games for the Titans in 2024 and 2025. He’ll likely remain a special teams player in Chicago. Lynch is the third defensive tackle added to the Bears roster this offseason.18 March 2026

Burford reunites with new Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak, who was on the 49ers’ offensive staff in 2023. The 25-year-old Burford started 16 games as a rookie and 13 more in 2023. Primarily playing the guard spot, he finished 2025 with a 62.6 PFF run blocking grade, No. 43 among guards. Though he was not as effective in pass blocking, Burford offers depth with the ability to start if needed. The Raiders continue to bulk up their offensive line ahead of the potential selection of QB Fernando Me ...18 March 2026
Hekker is a 14-year veteran, spending time with the Rams, Panthers, and Titans. He was a four-time All-Pro with the Rams early in his career and averaged 46.8 yards per punt with the Titans last season. The Vikings now fill the punter role with Hekker on a one-year deal.
