Isaiah McKenzie WR | MIA
Isaiah McKenzie: Let go by Bills
The Bills released McKenzie on Friday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Per Getzenberg, by releasing McKenzie, the Bills are in line to save over $2 million against this year's salary cap. During the 2022 season, McKenzie recorded 42 catches for 423 yards and four TDs as well as nine carries for 55 yards and a rushing TD in 15 games. The 2017 fifth-rounder will now look to catch on with another team looking to add wide receiver/return help.

Darius Slayton WR | IND
Giants' Darius Slayton: Staying with Giants
Slayton is re-signing with the Giants on a two-year deal, ESPN's Jordan Raanan reports.
The deal was announced Thursday evening a few hours after the Giants signed former Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell to a one-year contract. The team lacks a clear standout at the position but has decent depth on paper, though perhaps not so much in practice with both Wan'Dale Robinson and Sterling Shepard recovering from ACL tears and Isaiah Hodgins needing to prove he's not a one-year wonder. Slayton could be in the mix for a Week 1 starting job -- depending on the Giants' transactions throughout the rest of the offseason -- following a 2022 campaign in which he posted a 46-724-2 receiving line on 71 targets. Slayton has finished between 724 and 751 receiving yards in three of his four NFL seasons, with 2021 being the exception when he was benched for much of the year and managed only 339 yards.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine WR | IND
Titans' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Remaining in Tennessee
The Titans and Westbrook-Ikhine agreed to terms on a one-year contract Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
A restricted free agent this offseason, Westbrook-Ikhine didn't receive a qualifying offer or a tender from Tennessee, but he'll return to the only organization that he's known as a pro. He's settled into a regular receiver role for the Titans over the last two seasons, racking up a 63-873-7 line on 107 targets in 33 games.

Trent Taylor WR | SF
Bengals' Trent Taylor: Staying in Cincy
Taylor re-signed with the Bengals on a one-year contract in March of 2023, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Taylor was one of the league's most effective punt returners in 2022, ranking fourth in punt return yards with 340. His role as a receiver in Cincinnati's high-powered offense has been minimal, though, as Taylor has only eight catches in two seasons with the Bengals.

Parris Campbell WR | DAL
Giants' Parris Campbell: Links up with Daboll in NYC
Campbell is signing with the Giants, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
A 2019 second-round pick with 4.31 speed, Campbell primarily worked the slot in Indianapolis, where the first three years of his career were defined by a long list of injuries. He then played 17 games last season, more than in his first three years combined, but nonetheless finished with a modest receiving line of 63-623-3 on 91 targets. Campbell turns 26 in July and should benefit from coaching and QB upgrades relative to what he dealt with in Indianapolis, though his role remains to be seen and could partially depend on how Wan'Dale Robinson and Sterling Shepard fare in their respective recoveries from ACL tears. Isaiah Hodgins is the only healthy receiver under contract with New York at the start of the league year who had a significant role in Brian Daboll's offense last season.

Braxton Berrios WR | NYG
Dolphins' Braxton Berrios: Signing with Dolphins
The Dolphins are slated to sign Berrios to a one-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The 27-year-old will provide the Dolphins with added wide receiver depth behind top options Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, as well as give the team a capable option in the return game. In 17 games for the Jets in 2022, Berrios logged a modest 18-145-0 receiving line while adding two rushing touchdowns, but if he's able to secure steady snaps out of the slot with Miami, the 5-foot-9, 190-pounder could see an uptick in production this coming season.

Sterling Shepard WR | NYJ
Giants' Sterling Shepard: Officially re-signs with Giants
Shepard (knee) re-signed with the Giants on a one-year contract Thursday, Michael Eisen of the team's official site reports.
This move was expected, but now pen has officially been put to paper. Shepard is recovering from an ACL tear sustained in Week 3 of the 2022 season. Injuries have limited his availability in recent years, but Shepard has been fairly productive when on the field, having topped 600 yards four times since the Giants selected him in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft.

Jalen Guyton WR | LV
Jalen Guyton: Headed for free agency
The Chargers didn't extend Guyton (knee) a qualifying offer or contract tender as a restricted free agent Wednesday, so he's officially an unrestricted free agent, per the NFL's transaction log.
Guyton is currently rehabbing from an ACL tear he suffered during Week 3 of 2022 campaign, and it's unclear when he'll be 100 percent healthy. The undrafted wideout out of North Texas caught 59 of 103 targets for 959 yards and six touchdowns across his first two NFL seasons in Los Angeles, but he'll likely have to prove he's back to full strength before securing a new deal.

Cody Thompson WR | TB
Cody Thompson: Set for unrestricted free agency
Seattle didn't extend Thompson (shoulder) a qualifying offer or contract tender as a restricted free agent Wednesday, so he's officially an unrestricted free agent, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Thompson made five appearances for Seattle in 2021, playing nearly exclusively on special teams, but he spent the entire 2022 campaign on IR after suffering a shoulder injury during the Seahawks' preseason opener. Now that he's healthy, the undrafted product out of Toledo will attempt to sign with a new team this summer.

Steven Sims WR | ARI
Steven Sims: Allowed to hit open market
The Steelers didn't tender an offer to Sims as a restricted free agent Wednesday, Alan Saunders of PittsburghSportsNow.com reports.
Sims played 284 offensive snaps last season, seeing his role grow following the Chase Claypool trade, but he finished the year with just 14 catches for 104 scoreless yards. He'll look to compete for a job on some other team's roster this summer.
