  • Fred Johnson OT | PHI

    Eagles' Fred Johnson: Remaining with Philadelphia

    The Eagles are re-signing Johnson to a one-year contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Johnson has spent the past three campaigns with the Eagles, playing all 51 regular-season games during that span and making 14 starts. He'll likely retain his role as a swing tackle.

  • Zach Wilson QB | NO

    Saints' Zach Wilson: Signing with Saints

    The Saints are in line to sign Wilson, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, the quarterback -- who spent last season with the Dolphins -- will join the Saints on a one-year deal. Taken second overall by the Jets in the 2021 NFL Draft, Wilson joins a QB room in New Orleans that features second-year player Tyler Shough as the incumbent starter. Wilson last started a regular-season game in 2023, but prior to that, the 26-year-old drew 33 starts during his first three years with New York. He'll give the team another signal-caller with NFL starting experience to turn to, if needed.

  • Elijah Moore WR | PHI

    Eagles' Elijah Moore: Joining Eagles' WR corps

    The Eagles are slated to sign Moore to a one-year deal, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    In nine regular-season games with the Bills in 2025, Moore caught just nine passes on 17 targets for 112 yards and added 24 rushing yards and a TD on six carries. However, the 2021 second-rounder did log a 61-538-1 receiving line with the Browns a year prior, and the 25-year-old will look to engineer a bounce-back campaign with the Eagles. For now, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Hollywood Brown are atop the team's WR depth chart, but there's been plenty of speculation that Brown could be moved. If that happens, Moore could push for a notable role in Philadelphia's offense.

  • Joe Flacco QB | CIN

    Bengals' Joe Flacco: Staying in Cincinnati

    The Bengals and Flacco agreed to a one-year contract Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports

    Flacco kicked off last season as the Browns' No. 1 quarterback, completing 93 of 160 passes (58.1 percent) for 815 yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions in four starts. Cleveland then dealt him to Cincinnati, where he proceeded to fill in for the injured Joe Burrow. In six more starts with his new team, Flacco racked up 1,636 yards and a 13:4 TD:INT on 61.6 percent passing. Once Burrow recovered from his turf toe injury, Flacco saw only spot action down the stretch of the 2025 campaign, a role he figures to fill again this season as long as the former remains healthy.

  • Cam Jones LB | NYG

    Giants' Cam Jones: Joining forces with Giants

    Jones agreed to terms Tuesday on a contract with the Giants.

    Jones played 167 snaps on special teams as compared to just five defensive snaps across his 10 appearances with the Jets in 2025. The linebacker will compete for a similar role in 2026 while remaining in the New York area.

  • Cowboys' Derion Kendrick: Inks one-year deal in Dallas

    Kendrick signed a one-year contract with the Cowboys on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Kendrick kicked off the 2025 campaign handling a depth role with Seattle, but he was waived after 10 regular-season appearances and then claimed by the Rams, playing five more games. The cornerback and special-teamer will compete for a reserve gig in Dallas.

  • Saints' Terrell Burgess: Staying in New Orleans

    Burgess and the Saints agreed to terms on a contract Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    The 27-year-old from Utah is set to remain in New Orleans after spending 2025 with the team. Across 16 games and 319 total snaps (206 on special teams, 113 on defense) last season, Burgess tallied 22 tackles and three passes defensed. He's expected to remain a key special-teams contributor during the 2026 season.

  • Falcons' Brian Robinson: In line to sign with Atlanta

    Robinson is expected to sign with the Falcons, Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com and NFL reporter Jordan Schultz report.

    A third-round pick in 2022, Robinson spent the first three seasons of his career with Washington while producing between 733 and 799 rushing yards in each campaign. He was dealt to the 49ers last August and served as Christian McCaffrey's top backup in 2025, turning 100 touches into 425 yards from scrimmage and two rushing TDs. Considering he'll be working behind another workhorse back in Bijan Robinson for Atlanta, the former Commander and Niner likely will take on a similar workload in his new locale.

  • Lavonte David: Opts for retirement

    The Buccaneers announced David's retirement from the NFL on Tuesday.

    A second-round pick in 2012, David was a model of consistency over 14 seasons in Tampa Bay, missing only 14 games and reaching the 100-tackle threshold 12 times while being named an All-Pro on three occasions. His overall contributions are Hall of Fame-worthy, but he'll have to wait the minimum five years before such an honor will be under consideration.

  • Jaylen Waddle WR | DEN

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Opens up cap space

    Waddle agreed to terms Tuesday on a restructured contract with the Broncos that converts $15.4 million of his 2026 option bonus into a signing bonus, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Waddle's restructure opens up significant cap space for Denver. The Broncos acquired Waddle from Miami on March 17, and the 27-year-old wideout's explosiveness and athleticism should make him a dangerous 1-2 downfield punch alongside Courtland Sutton for quarterback Bo Nix in 2026. Head coach Sean Payton has praised Waddle's "grit" and "high, high [competitiveness]," as Andrew Mason of 104.3 The Fan reports.
