  • Max Mitchell OT | NYJ

    Jets' Max Mitchell: Staying with Jets

    The Jets have agreed to a one-year deal with Mitchell, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Mitchell is re-signing with the Jets as a depth piece on the offensive line. The 26-year-old has spent all four of his previous NFL seasons with New York, starting in 17 total games in his career.

  • Jaylinn Hawkins SAF | BAL

    Ravens' Jaylinn Hawkins: Plans to sign with Baltimore

    The Ravens plan to sign Hawkins to a two-year deal, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Hawkins is set to receive a two-year deal totalling $10 million. The defensive back started all 15 regular-season games he participated in during the 2025 campaign, logging 71 tackles (45 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and added six passes defensed for four interceptions as well. The Ravens will acquire a safety coming off a career year to pair up with All-Pro Kyle Hamilton.

  • Falcons' Channing Tindall: Signing with Atlanta

    The Falcons have agreed to a one-year deal with Tindall, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Tindall spent the second half of the 2025 season with Arizona after signing with them in December. In seven games with the team, the 25-year-old accrued eight tackles (four solo), acting as a rotational player on defense. Prior to his stint with the Cardinals, Tindall spent three seasons with Miami in a similar depth role.

  • Josh Jones OT | SEA

    Seahawks' Josh Jones: Sticking with champs

    The Seahawks are set to re-sign Jones to a one-year deal, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Jones signed a one-year contract with the Seahawks in 2025, which culminated in a victory over the Patriots in Super Bowl LX. The backup offensive tackle was an instrumental piece of the team's journey to the NFC's top seed, as he started at left tackle for the final three games of the regular season due to Charles Cross' hamstring injury. Jones' production as the next man up has earned him a chance to try to chase another Lombardi with Seattle in 2026.

  • Commanders' Chig Okonkwo: Set to join Commanders

    Okonkwo has agreed to terms on a three-year contract with Washington, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Okonkwo is moving on from Tennessee after four seasons to become the new top pass-catching TE for quarterback Jayden Daniels, joining a positional room that also includes Ben Sinnott and John Bates (who combined for 22 catches in 2025). Now entering his age-27 season, Okonkwo has tallied over 400 receiving yards in four consecutive years and brings a respectable production floor to the Commanders. For fantasy purposes, Okonkwo will be a sleeper breakout candidate at the tight end position in the event that Daniels is the quarterback able to unlock the untapped potential promised by Okonkwo's YAC abilities and speed (4.52 40).

  • Willie Gay Jr. LB | MIA

    Dolphins' Willie Gay: Re-signing with Miami

    The Dolphins are set to re-sign Gay, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Gay signed a one-year contract with the Dolphins for the 2025 season, and it is likely the team has agreed to yet another one-year deal to keep the linebacker through 2026. He participated in all 17 regular-season games for the Dolphins in 2025, logging 20 tackles (10 solo), including 2.0 sacks. The 28-year-old also managed to pick up two passes defensed, creating a decent amount of havoc for the mere 131 defensive snaps he played.

  • Aaron Jones RB | MIN

    Vikings' Aaron Jones: Revises deal to stay in MIN

    Jones (hip) agreed to terms on a restructured contract Wednesday that will allow him to remain with the Vikings for the 2026 season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Jones is lowering his base salary for the 2026 season to $5.5 million, a figure that makes it more realistic for Minnesota to retain the 31-year-old veteran for the 2026 campaign rather than release him in a cap-saving maneuver. Last year Jones was limited to just 12 regular-season appearances due to a combination of injuries, missing Week 18 due to a hip issue, but there have been no reports that the veteran running back will be limited at all during spring activities. Jones logged 132 carries for 548 yards and two touchdowns while adding 28 catches (on 41 targets) for 199 yards and another score in 2025 and currently stands alongside Jordan Mason atop the Vikings' backfield, though the team could still make further additions to that unit in free agency and/or April's draft.

  • Kevin Byard FS | NE

    Patriots' Kevin Byard: Safety help for New England

    The Patriots have agreed to a one-year deal with Byard, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Byard is set to make $9 million in 2026 as he moves on to help a Patriots defense fresh off the Super Bowl LX loss. The former Bears safety ended 2025 with 93 tackles (61 solo) and eight passes defensed for seven interceptions over 17 regular-season games. The ball hawk will help offset free agency losses for a Patriots defense that is looking to maintain control of the AFC East and string together deep playoff runs.

  • 49ers' Patrick Taylor: Staying in San Francisco

    Taylor (shoulder) is slated to re-sign with the 49ers, per his representation at Equity Sports.

    Taylor missed the entire 2025 campaign due to a shoulder injury suffered during the preseason, for which he required surgery, but he's presumably now fully healthy and ready for the start of offseason activities. In what will be his age-28 season, Taylor projects to provide backfield depth behind Christian McCaffrey, Jordan James and Isaac Guerendo.

  • Packers' Brenton Cox: Re-signing with Green Bay

    The Packers have agreed to a one-year deal with Cox, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    The one-year, $2.5 million contract will keep the restricted free agent with the Packers. Cox was a valuable rotational defensive piece, helping out on the edge when star pass rusher Micah Parsons went down in December. The 26-year-old played in just four 2025 regular-season games, down from seven in 2024.
