Williams (back) agreed to restructure his contract Thursday, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports.

The Chargers needed cap relief, and the restructures of Williams and Keenan Allen provided it. Williams' salary conversion creates $5.46 million in 2023 cap space for Los Angeles. Williams was injured in a Week 18 loss to Denver and missed his team's playoff game against the Jaguars but should be healthy now.

Allen agreed to restructure his contract Thursday, per NFL.com's Kevin Patra.

Allen had been rumored to be a potential cap casualty earlier in the offseason, but GM Tom Telesco shut that down at the combine last week. The 30-year-old Allen has converted a large chunk of his 2023 base salary into a bonus to help the Chargers clear $8.9 million in cap space. L.A. did the same thing with Mike Williams' contract Thursday.

New York informed Berrios on Thursday that he will be released, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Berrios will be officially released at the start of the new league year, after he and the Jets were unable to come to terms on a contract restructure. The depth wideout saw his production dip to an 18-145-0 receiving line with an added two rushing touchdowns in 2022, but he's shown enough in his career to find another reserve spot on the open market. The 27-year-old is also able to contribute in the return game.

Arizona released Anderson on Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

This move was expected after Anderson struggled to produce for the Cardinals after coming over in a midseason deal with the Panthers back in October. Over his 10 appearances for Arizona, Anderson tallied seven receptions for 76 yards and no touchdowns on 17 targets. Anderson's release clears $12 million in cap space for Arizona.

The Broncos signed Humphrey on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Humphrey jumped between New England's practice squad and its active roster during the 2022 campaign, and he ultimately appeared in six games for the Patriots before being let go in November. The 24-year-old wide receiver is now slated to compete for one of Denver's roster spots in training camp.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Cardinals are expected to release Anderson.

This is a no-brainer mover for new Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort. Acquired from the Panthers in Week 7 last season, Anderson ended up catching seven passes for 76 scoreless yards across 10 games for Arizona. Releasing Anderson will save the Cardinals $12 million in cap space.

The NFL announced Monday that Ridley has been fully reinstated from his indefinite suspension, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Ridley was suspended indefinitely for gambling on the NFL while away from the Falcons during the 2021 season. He was acquired by the Jaguars last season at the trade deadline and gets a fresh start in Jacksonville, where he'll likely fill the role vacated by Marvin Jones, who is a free agent this month. Ridley will slide in opposite Zay Jones on the outside, leaving Christian Kirk in the slot. Ridley is now 28 years old and hasn't played in a game since October 2021, so initial expectations should be held in check as the 2018 first-rounder is introduced to his new team's offense, helmed by QB Trevor Lawrence.

The Rams have given Robinson (foot) permission Monday to seek a trade, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Los Angeles is even reportedly willing to take on a portion of the 29-year-old wideout's $15.25 million guaranteed salary to help get a trade done, per Pelissero. Robinson, who missed the last seven games of the 2022 season due to a foot injury, logged just a 33-339-3 receiving line on 52 targets across 10 games in his debut season with the Rams, after having put up 38-410-1 in 12 contests with the Bears back in 2021. Robinson's chances of a career revival at this point may depend on finding a quality landing spot for a fresh start.

Cobb recently underwent ankle surgery, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

The surgery was to "clean out the back of his ankle," according to Rapoport. The 32-year-old Cobb caught 34 passes for 417 yards and one touchdown on 50 targets across 13 games for the Packers last season. He's scheduled to be a free agent later this month. It's unclear at this point if Cobb plans to keep playing in 2023.

The Commanders signed Kemp on Friday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Kemp will now reunite with Washington's newly hired offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, as the two had previously spent five seasons together in Kansas City. The 27-year-old wide receiver has primarily operated as a depth option since entering the league back in 2017, and given the Commanders' current depth at the position, it looks as if he'll once again mainly serve as special-teams contributor in 2023.
