David Moore WR | CAR
Panthers' David Moore: Catches one pass in 2025
Moore caught his lone target for five yards across four regular-season appearances during the 2025 season.
After posting a 32-351-3 receiving line on 57 targets across all 17 regular-season contests, including five starts, during the 2024 campaign, Moore was relegated to strict reserve duties this season. Now 31 years old, Moore is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent next month.

Andy Dalton QB | CAR
Panthers' Andy Dalton: Attempts 37 passes in 2025
Dalton completed 25 of 37 passes for 293 yards, one touchdown and one interception across four regular-season appearances during the 2025 season.
Dalton made one start in place of an injured Bryce Young in Week 8 against the Bills but guided the offense to just nine points in a 40-9 blowout loss. Dalton will turn 39 years old later this year and is under contract through the 2026 campaign at a reasonable $3.9 million salary. He should be back as Young's backup next season.

Terrell Jennings RB | NE
Patriots' Terrell Jennings: Practice window closes
Jennings' (hamstring) 21-day practice window closed Wednesday, and he will not play in Sunday's Super Bowl against the Seahawks, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
With Jennings ineligible to play against Seattle, it signals that D'Ernest Johnson will likely be elevated from the practice squad to serve as the Patriots' RB3 behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson. Jennings appeared in seven regular-season games this season, rushing 23 times for 73 yards and one touchdown.

Terrace Marshall Jr. WR | PHI
Dolphins' Terrace Marshall: Inks deal with Miami
Marshall signed a reserve/future contract with the Dolphins on Wednesday.
Marshall will turn 26 years old in June and spent the 2025 campaign bouncing off and on the Eagles' practice squad without appearing in a regular-season contest. The 59th overall pick of the 2021 Draft by Carolina, Marshall enters a Miami wideout room devoid of proven depth behind Tyreek Hill (knee) and Jaylen Waddle.

Malik Willis QB | GB
Packers' Malik Willis: Expected to depart in free agency
Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said Wednesday that the team expects Willis to depart in free agency and land with a team that, at minimum, will allow him to compete for a starting job, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Willis will become an unrestricted free agent in March due to the expiration of his rookie contract. Given how well he played in relief of Jordan Love across his two seasons with the Packers, all expectations are that the 2022 third-round pick will be highly sought by quarterback-needy teams. Across 11 combined regular-season appearances between 2024 and 2025, Willis completed 70 of 89 pass attempts (78 percent) for 972 yards, six touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also rushed 42 times for 261 yards and another three scores. Despite Willis' success and development in coach Matt LaFleur's offense, he will likely pursue greater opportunities with another franchise. As such, Willis stands as a high-upside, under-the-radar trade target, specially in dynasty fantasy formats and those that allow multiple starting quarterbacks.

Chazz Surratt LB | SEA
Seahawks' Chazz Surratt: Returns from IR
Surratt (ankle) was activated from IR on Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Surratt had missed the Seahawks' last eight games due to an ankle injury, but it now appears he's got a chance to return for a Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots. The North Carolina product was a key special-teams contributor for Seattle this season, recording 11 total tackles across 11 appearances. He's likely to play a similar role if he's active for Sunday's contest.

Amari Kight OT | SEA
Seahawks' Amari Kight: Shifts to IR
Kight (knee) was placed on IR on Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
The rookie offensive lineman from UCF joined Seattle's active roster late in the season with both Charles Cross and Josh Jones dealing with injuries. However, Kight won't be able to suit up for a Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots. Expect Jones and Mason Richman to operate as the Seahawks' top reserve tackles.

Ed Oliver DT | BUF
Bills' Ed Oliver: Injuries impact 2025 campaign
Oliver (knee) tallied 12 total tackles (10 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and one forced fumble across three regular-season appearances in 2025.
The 2019 first-round pick from Houston appeared in just three regular-season contests this season due to a biceps injury, but he was incredibly impactful when healthy. Oliver recorded 1.0 sacks in each of his three appearances, finishing the season tied for the fourth-most sacks on the Bills defense. He returned for the divisional-round loss to the Broncos but exited after just 16 defensive snaps due to a knee injury. If Oliver is healthy for the beginning of the 2026 season, he's expected to start as one of the NFL's best interior defensive linemen.

Maxwell Hairston CB | BUF
Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Shows flashes in rookie season
Hairston (ankle) tallied 18 total tackles (14 solo) and five passes defensed, including two interceptions, over 11 regular-season games in 2025.
Hairston, a 2025 first-round pick from Kentucky, missed eight games (including playoffs) during his rookie campaign due to knee, ankle and head injuries. Despite this, the 22-year-old was productive when healthy, tying for second on the team in interceptions while ranking third in passes defensed. Additionally, Hairston tied for the third-most interceptions among rookie defenders. He's expected to start as one of Buffalo's top boundary corners ahead of the 2026 season.

DaQuan Jones DT | BUF
Bills' DaQuan Jones: Notches 3.0 sacks in 2025
Jones recorded 22 total tackles (11 solo), including 3.0 sacks, two passes defensed, including one interception, and one forced fumble across 12 regular-season games in 2025.
The 34-year-old from Penn State was the Bills' most productive interior pass rusher this season, tallying his highest sack total since his 2017 campaign with the Titans. Additionally, Jones nabbed the first interception of his career in the Week 16 win over the Browns. Set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, the veteran will likely find work elsewhere ahead of the 2026 season following the emergence of 2025 fourth-round pick Deone Walker, who operated as the Bills' top interior defensive lineman for most of this season.
