The Rams waived Roberson on Friday.

Roberson signed a reserve/future deal with the Rams in January but has been let go ahead of the new league year, which starts March 15. He's spent the last two seasons bouncing between practice squads, but the undrafted wideout out of Wake Forest is still looking to make his NFL debut.

The Rams waived Sterns on Friday.

Sterns inked a reserve/future contract with the Rams in January but has been let go ahead of the new league year, which begins March 15. The 5-foot-9 wideout initially signed with Los Angeles as an undrafted free agent in May 2022 but was cut ahead of the regular season. He rejoined the organization on practice-squad deal in late December, but he's still looking to make his NFL debut.

The Bears agreed Friday to acquire Moore and four draft picks from the Panthers in exchange for the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Along with Moore, the Bears will receive the Nos. 9 and 61 overall picks in this year's draft, a 2024 first-round pick and a 2025 second-round selection. Moore, who caught 63 passes for 888 yards and seven touchdowns in 17 games for the Panthers in 2022, should serve as Chicago's top wideout this coming season, while Carolina is now in position to take a quarterback first overall next month.

The Rams waived Koski (shoulder) without an injury designation Friday, per the team's transaction report.

Koski ended the 2022 campaign on injured reserve with a shoulder injury, but he appears to be healthy now. The undrafted wideout out of Cal Poly has bounced on and off the Rams' roster since entering the league in 2020, but he may have to look for an opportunity elsewhere in 2023.

The Chargers announced Friday that they will not tender Bandy, making him an unrestricted free agent, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

Bandy took advantage of Los Angeles' depleted wideout corps in 2022 and made 10 appearances, catching 10 of 21 targets for 89 yards. The undrafted product of out San Diego has experience as a kick returner too and should be able to latch on with a new team ahead of training camp.

Dortch announced via his personal Twitter account that he's re-signed with the Cardinals.

Dortch is now set to remain in Arizona for this upcoming campaign following Friday's announcement. After a quiet first couple of years to begin his NFL career, the 24-year-old had a breakthrough season despite the combination of the team's inconsistent quarterback play and the Cardinals' depth at the wide receiver position. Dortch will aim to build off of the 52 catches, 467 yards and two scores that he registered during the 2022 campaign.

Valdes-Scantling didn't reel in his only target during the Super Bowl versus the Eagles.

After a breakout effort during the AFC Championship win over the Bengals, where he recorded six catches for 116 yards and a touchdown, the deep threat was held in check against the Eagles. He closed out the playoffs with seven catches for 122 yards and a pair of scores after compiling 42 grabs for 687 yards and a pair of touchdowns during the regular season. MVS' deal with the Chiefs extends through the 2024 campaign, so he will likely retain a similar role in 2023.

Hill restructured his contract with the Dolphins on Friday to convert his $10 million roster bonus into a $24.84 million bonus and his $16 million salary into a $1.17 million salary, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Hill's restructured opens up about $18 million in cap space for Miami as the team prepares to tackle free agency. The star wideout remains under contract for the Dolphins for the next three seasons after having put together a career 119-1,710-8 receiving line last year. By all accounts, Hill looks to be in prime position for another high-end fantasy season in Year 2 of coach Mike McDaniel's scheme, with Tua Tagovailoa primed to return as his starting quarterback.

The Vikings are releasing Thielen on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Thielen, a former undrafted free agent out of Minnesota State, logged a remarkable 10-year stretch with the Vikings but will now have to continue his NFL career elsewhere. The two-time Pro Bowler and Minnesota discussed a potential contract restructure, per Pelissero, but the 32-year-old will ultimately test free agency as one of the top veteran wide receivers on the market. Though Thielen's statistical production declined across 17 appearances in 2022, he still managed to record 70 catches for 716 yards and six touchdowns.

Beckham (knee) has a scheduled workout for NFL teams in Arizona on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

It's been 13 months since Beckham sustained a torn ACL in his left knee during the Rams' Super Bowl LVI victory against the Bengals in February 2022. The workout likely indicates he's back to full health -- or at least close to it -- and considering he wasn't under contract with a team this past season, he's eligible to sign with a new team at any point. During his 12-game run with L.A. in 2021 (including playoffs), Beckham put up a 48-593-7 line on 74 targets, reeling off seven catches of 20-plus yards in the process.
