  • Dareke Young WR | SEA

    Raiders' Dareke Young: Heading to Vegas

    Young is in line to sign with the Raiders, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

    The wide receiver, who dealt with a quadriceps injury in 2025, caught two passes for 48 yards and no scores across nine regular-season games. Young saw action more often on special teams than on offense.

  • Giants' Calvin Austin: Signs one-year pact with G-Men

    The Giants signed Austin to a one-year contract worth up to $4.5 million Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    It's a nice landing spot for Austin, in the sense there isn't a whole lot of proven competition at the wide receiver spot behind Malik Nabers (knee), as Austin looks like a current favorite to be part of the team's three-wide set alongside Malik Nabers (knee) and Darius Slayton after Wan'Dale Robinson left in free agency. Austin failed to gel with Aaron Rodgers in Pittsburgh last season, securing just 31 of 55 targets for 372 yards and three touchdowns across 14 regular-season appearances. Austin averaged 15.2 yards per catch in 2024 and offers theoretical big-play potential.

  • Tutu Atwell WR | LAR

    Dolphins' Tutu Atwell: Miami native returning home

    Atwell is signing a one-year contract with the Dolphins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports Thursday.

    Atwell had 1,535 receiving yards and five touchdown catches in five regular seasons with the Rams. The Miami native should help the Dolphins stretch the field with his speed. Atwell joins a wide receiver room that doesn't have much depth behind Jaylen Waddle (ribs), as no wide receiver besides Waddle (910) exceeded 317 receiving yards for Miami in 2025.

  • Broncos' Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Re-ups with Broncos

    Denver re-signed Humphrey on Thursday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Humphrey kicked off the 2025 campaign wearing a Giants uniform, but he was poached off New York's practice squad by the Broncos in advance of a Week 11 game against Kansas City and provided the team with depth at wideout behind Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant and Marvin Mims down the stretch. Now, heading into his age-28 season, Humphrey appears positioned to reprise a similar reserve role.

  • Ryan Miller WR | NYG

    Giants' Ryan Miller: Joining Big Blue

    Miller is slated to sign with the Giants, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    The 26-year-old wideout from Furman appeared in 13 games for the Buccaneers in 2025, catching two of four targets for 34 yards and a touchdown across 328 total snaps (205 on special teams, 123 on offense). Following his deal with the Giants, Miller will likely compete for a depth spot in New York's wide receiver room ahead of the 2026 season.

  • Tom Kennedy WR | DET

    Lions' Tom Kennedy: Returning to Detroit

    Kennedy (ribs) is slated to re-sign with the Lions, Jeremy Reisman of Pride Of Detroit reports.

    Kennedy exited the Lions' 2025 regular-season finale due to a ribs injury, but his new deal with the team suggests he's moved past the issue. The 29-year-old from Bryant played a minor role in Detroit's offense last season, catching all four of his targets for 36 yards while accumulating 447 kick-return yards across just six appearances. Expect Kennedy to remain a depth option in the Lions' receiving corps for the 2026 season.

  • Joshua Cephus WR | JAC

    Joshua Cephus: Free agent after non-tender

    The Jaguars did not tender Cephus (undisclosed) on Wednesday.

    As such, Cephus now will be an unrestricted free agent. He did not appear in a regular-season game in 2025 due to an undisclosed injury that caused him to be placed on IR in late August. Cephus will look to join a team in need of wide receiver depth.

  • D.J. Montgomery: Not tendered by Indianapolis

    The Colts did not tender Montgomery (undisclosed) on Wednesday.

    As such, Montgomery now will be an unrestricted free agent. The Austin Peay product missed the entire 2025 season while on injured reserve due to an undisclosed issue. Montgomery last saw regular-season action in 2023 with the Colts, when he appeared in seven games and finished with three catches (on eight targets) for 56 yards and one touchdown.

  • Jake Bobo WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Jake Bobo: Tendered by Seattle

    The Seahawks have tendered Bobo as a restricted free agent Wednesday, Dom Skene of USA Today reports.

    The tender provides Bobo with a one-year, $3.52 million deal for the 2026 campaign and allows him to negotiate with other teams, though Seattle will retain the right to match any offer. While playing through a lingering foot injury in 2025, Bobo secured four of five targets for 53 yards and a touchdown while suiting up for 14 regular-season games.

  • Panthers' John Metchie: Reunites with Bryce Young

    Metchie is signing a one-year deal with Carolina, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    A 2022 second-round pick, Metchie spent time with three different teams during the length of his rookie contract after missing the 2022 season to recover from cancer. He'll now reunite with college teammate Bryce Young, likely competing for a depth role at wide receiver behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker.
