SNY TV’s Connor Hughes reports that the Giants are interested in signing Jamel Dean.

05 March 2026

The Buccaneers spent a third-round pick on Dean in 2019. He has never played elsewhere. Groin, hip and shoulder injuries caused him to miss time last year, though he still intercepted three passes and PFF credits him with seven forced incompletions.

49ers hired Matt Eberflus as their new assistant head coach of defense.

NFL Insider Jordan Schultz reports that the Cardinals will not tender restricted free agent RB Emari Demercado.

05 March 2026


Jets exercised the exclusive rights free agent tenders on DT Jowon Briggs and LB Marcelino McCrary-Ball.

05 March 2026

The Jets acquired Briggs and a 2026 seventh-round pick from the Browns in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick. It is safe to say he exceeded expectations. Both his 38 quarterback pressures and four sacks ranked second on the team last season. He turns 25 on September 1st. McCrary-Ball chipped in 17 solo tackles last year. The Jets also re-signed TE Jelani Woods. He caught 1-of-2 targets for four yards last year.

Broncos re-signed OT Alex Palczewski to a two-year contract.

05 March 2026

Palczewski has served as a do-it-all backup for the Broncos, lining up as a left guard, right tackle and, at times, an in-line tight end. He logged 665 offensive snaps last season and earned a 53.7 PFF offense grade for his efforts. The former undrafted free agent blocker turns 27 in August.

The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McClane believes the Patriots and Ravens are now the “most likely” potential trade partners for Eagles WR A.J. Brown.

05 March 2026

McClane first reported on the Patriots and Ravens’ interest in Brown in late February. Per McLane, the Bills “checked in” with the Eagles about trading for Brown before ultimately trading for former Bears WR DJ Moore. McLane believes Moore’s acquisition “theoretically” takes the Bills out of the running for Brown. This makes sense. The Bills guaranteed $15.5 million of Moore’s 2028 salary to facilitate the transaction. The Eagles are reportedly inclined to only deal with AFC teams.

Patriots signed OLB Jesse Luketa, formerly of the Rams, to a one-year contract.

05 March 2026

The Cardinals drafted Luketa in the 2022 NFL Draft’s seventh round. He functioned as a backup pass rusher for them until partway through the 2025 season. The Rams then signed him to the practice squad in November. He tallied 3.0 sacks and one forced fumble back in 2024.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Cameron Jordan will hit free agency for the first time in his NFL career next week.

05 March 2026

Jordan spent 15 seasons with the Saints after they drafted him as a first-round pick back in 2011. He racked up 10.5 sacks last season and, incredibly, turns 37 years old in May. Jordan recently told reporters that he is not seeking “top dollar,” he simply wants to be “valued.” Over The Cap currently lists the Saints as being $11.6 million in the red this season, which at least partially explains why the team may be hesitant to invest in an older player. While it would be fun to see the ...

Jordan Schultz reports OT Jedrick Wills is visiting with the Patriots and Lions.

05 March 2026

Wills suffered an MCL injury in 2023 that resurfaced in 2024. He appeared in just 13 games across the two seasons and then chose to sit out the 2025 season to fully recover from his knee issue. He is now a free agent and there will be plenty of teams willing to take a flyer on the former No. 10 overall pick. Schultz notes that he will have more visits next week, with teams likely wanting to do medical testing on his knee before working out a contract.

Bills acquired DJ Moore and a fifth-round pick from the Bears in exchange for a second-round pick.

05 March 2026

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero confirmed the picks involved. Given that many believed Chicago would cut Moore this offseason, landing a second-round pick is a massive win for the Bears. With the additions of Rome Odunze, Colston Loveland, and Luther Burden, Moore had been slowly phased out of the Chicago passing game over the past two years. He caught just 50 passes for 682 yards during the regular season. Both marks were career-lows for the eight-year veteran. Moore’s effort and attitude were ...

A “high-ranking team executive” told CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones he had considered trading for Tua Tagovailoa “if the Dolphins would send a first-round pick to take on the freight of his contract.”

05 March 2026

Jones was quick to point out that the NFL generally frowns upon teams paying draft picks to offload bloated contracts, and it’s an incredibly rare occurrence. We doubt every team feels this negatively about Tagovailoa and his contract, but it does make it clear that there won’t be much, if any, of a market for his services. Miami is likely stuck either cutting him or keeping him on the roster for another year. Even with a post-June 1st designation, the Dolphins lose $11.1 million in cap spac ...

CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones reports the Titans “have their eyes” on WR Wan’Dale Robinson.

05 March 2026

Robinson will hit the open market next week unless the Giants extend before the start of the new league year. All signs point to them letting him walk. Coming off his first 1,000-yard outing, Robinson will have plenty of suitors in free agency. The Titans desperately need an always-open target for Cam Ward to rely on and have plenty of money to spare. They currently have over $90 million in cap space. The Tennessee connection is aslo one that ESPN’s Turron Davenport made earlier this offseason ...

CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones reports the Bears are “a team to watch” for Raiders EDGE Maxx Crosby.

05 March 2026

Jones added that the Cowboys “are lurking.” All signs point to the Raiders and Crosby parting ways with free agency on the horizon. The Bears solved their problems on offense under Ben Johnson but still need to improve on the other side of the ball. To no one’s surprise, the Dallas defense bottomed out after they traded away Micah Parsons. As Jones notes, the Raiders will likely get less for Crosby than the two first-round picks Dallas landed when they sent Parsons to Green Bay. That price ...

Bills acquired DJ Moore from the Bears.

05 March 2026

The trade compensation hasn’t been reported, but NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport called it a mid-round pick. Our best guess is a fourth-round selection. With the additions of Rome Odunze, Colston Loveland, and Luther Burden, Moore had been slowly phased out of the Chicago passing game over the past two years. He caught just 50 passes for 682 yards during the regular season. Both marks were career-lows for the eight-year veteran. Moore’s effort and attitude were also pain points for the Bears, w ...

Texans signed OT Trent Brown to a one-year contract extension.

05 March 2026

Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the deal is worth “up to” $7 million. Brown was released by Houston at the end of training camp last year. The team kept him around on the practice squad and ultimately put him on the active roster during the second half of the season. He went on to make eight starts, including the playoffs, and received solid grades from Pro Football Focus. With fellow right tackle Tytus Howard traded to Cleveland, Brown is in line to take on that gig full-time for 2026.

Jaguars agreed to terms with TE Quintin Morris.

05 March 2026

Morris appeared in 14 games for the Jags in 2025. He totaled six catches for 55 yards and a single score. Morris is primarily a blocker and also contributes on special teams. He’ll be back in Jacksonville for 2026.

Packers signed RB Chris Brooks to a two-year, $4.9 million contract.

05 March 2026

Brooks ran 27 times for 106 yards and caught 13 passes for 91 yards in 2025. He also logged 230 special teams snaps. Brooks fills multiple roles as a depth option at running back and a special teamer. He is now under contract through 2027.

Packers restructured S Xavier McKinney’s contract.

05 March 2026

Green Bay performed a simple restructure, converting $4.3 million of his base salary into a signing bonus. The move gives the Packers some extra wiggle room ahead of free agency. McKinney totaled 10 pass breakups and two interceptions in his second season with the Packers.

Commanders signed EDGE Drake Jackson to a one-year contract extension.

05 March 2026

Jackson was drafted by the 49ers in 2022. He recorded three sacks as a rookie plus another three in just eight games during his second season. Jackson then suffered a torn patellar tendon late in the 2023 season and missed all of 2024 as well. The 49ers cut him last offseason. Washington then took a flyer on him, though he needed most of the 2025 season to continue recovering from the knee issue. Jackson returned for three games to end the year. Now fully recovered heading into the offseason, Ja ...

Falcons released WR Darnell Mooney.

05 March 2026

Ian Rapoport was first on the news, which will be made official before the new league year next week. Atlanta saves $7.4 million in cap space with his release. Mooney looked like a steal one year into his three-year, $39 million contract. He went for 992 yards and five scores in 2024. The wheels then fell off in 2025 and he managed just 443 yards and one score on 32 grabs. Mooney dealt with several injuries, but his drops and overall inconsistent play were too much for Atlanta to keep him around ...
