    The Colts signed Thomas (migraine) to a one-year contract Friday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

  • Simi Fehoko WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Simi Fehoko: Returns to Arizona

    The Cardinals re-signed Fehoko (wrist) to a one-year contract Friday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    Fehoko suffered a season-ending wrist injury in Week 10 last season and missed the remainder of the 2025 campaign. A wide receiver by trade, Fehoko played just 37 offensive snaps across eight games but logged another 116 snaps on special teams. He'll compete for a roster spot this summer under new coach Mike LaFleur.

  • Broncos' Ja'Quan McMillian: Signs RFA tender

    McMillian signed his one-year, $5.767 million restricted free agent tender Friday.

    It represents a significant raise for McMillian, who made $1.03 million in 2025. The 25-year-old cornerback joined the Broncos as an undrafted free agent in 2022 and has carved out a prominent role in Denver's secondary. He appeared in all 17 regular-season games last season, making three starts, and recorded 56 tackles (40 solo), including a career-high 4.0 sacks, nine pass breakups, including two interceptions, and a pair of forced fumbles. He's the team's No. 1 slot corner.

  • Van Jefferson WR | WAS

    Commanders' Van Jefferson: Joining Commanders

    Jefferson (forearm) is signing with the Commanders, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

    Jefferson finished the 2025 regular season with the Titans on injured reserve due to a forearm injury, but he looks to have recovered. Prior to that injury, the six-year NFL veteran recorded 350 receiving yards in 16 games. Jefferson had 802 regular-season receiving yards back in 2021 with the Rams but hasn't topped 369 in any of his other five campaigns, which suggests he's likely ticketed for a depth role in Washington.

  • Dyami Brown WR | WAS

    Brown is signing a one-year contract with the Commanders, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports Friday.

    Brown spent his first four seasons in Washington, recording 59 catches for 784 yards and four touchdowns across 63 regular-season games. After posting a 227-yard regular season with the Jaguars in 2025, Brown will rejoin the Commanders, who have a wide open depth chart at wide receiver behind Terry McLaurin.

  • Jonathan Owens DB | IND

    Colts' Jonathan Owens: Signs with Indy

    The Colts signed Owens to a one-year contract Friday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    Owens appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Bears last season but played a total of just 47 defensive snaps and 264 snaps on special teams. Look for Owens to fill a similar role in Indianapolis.

  • Colts' Drew Ogletree: Re-ups with Colts for one year

    Ogletree (neck) re-signed with the Colts on a one-year contract Friday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    Ogletree has recovered from a neck injury that landed him on injured reserve to finish the 2025 season. He's expected to continue filling a depth role and contributing primarily as a blocker after recording 22 catches for 283 yards and four touchdowns across 44 appearances over the past three regular seasons with Indianapolis.

  • Falcons' Michael Penix: GM confirms QB battle with Tua

    Falcons GM Ian Cunningham confirmed Friday that the team is bringing in Tua Tagovailoa to compete with Penix (knee) for the starting quarterback role, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

    Tagovailoa has agreed to a one-year, $1.3 million contract with the Falcons and will join the team if he passes his physical. Both Penix and Tua are left-handed quarterbacks who have dealt with numerous injuries. Penix underwent surgery in November to repair a partially torn ACL in his left knee, but he's aiming to be healthy ahead of Week 1. Once healthy, Penix is slated to compete with Tagovailoa for the starting job.

    The 27-year-old has appeared in 27 regular-season games (six starts) for the Panthers over the last two seasons, recording 60 total tackles and one pass defensed. Following his new deal with Carolina, Cherelus is expected to operate as one of the team's top reserve inside linebackers during the 2026 season.
