Tucker has been working out at Baltimore's training facility, and the Ravens are currently approaching the competition between him and rookie Tyler Loop "purely on football," Giana Han of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Tucker uncharacteristically struggled last year, converting just 22 of 30 field-goal attempts over 17 regular-season games. He's also currently under investigation by the NFL due to off-field allegations. The Ravens selected Loop in the sixth round of April's draft, suggesting that Tucker's role with the team is hazy considering the league's investigation and his unsatisfactory kicking last year.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Saturday that Flowers didn't need surgery to fix the knee injury that ended his 2024 season, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Flowers wasn't able to participate in either of Baltimore's two playoff games last season due to a right knee sprain he suffered Week 18 against Cleveland. There was some concern that the talented wideout would need to undergo surgery, but that didn't end up being the case. As such, Flowers seems to be on track to be ready for the start of the 2025 season, when he'll look to further build upon his impressive 2024 campaign during which he caught 74 passes for 1,059 yards and four touchdowns over 17 regular-season contests.

The Eagles waived Davis-Price on Saturday.

Davis-Price was a third-round selection of the 49ers in the 2022 NFL Draft. He hooked on with the Eagles last season and got into one game, rushing three times for seven yards. Philadelphia signed Davis-Price to a reserve/future contract this February, but he's now been let go to make room on the roster for undrafted free agent signee Giles Jackson.

Jones may not take part in practice until training camp due to a shoulder injury, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Jones was a third-round selection by the Ravens in April's NFL Draft. The LSU product's injury doesn't appear likely to sideline him for any regular-season games, but it could delay his offseason program to some extent. If he's healthy for training camp, Jones will likely be competing for snaps at right guard.

The Chiefs waived Lynch on Saturday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Lynch was let go along with defensive end BJ Thompson (chest) in order to clear space for incoming undrafted free agents. Lynch played in one game for Kansas City last season, tallying six tackles while playing 25 defensive snaps in the regular-season finale versus Denver. He hasn't had a significant role with an NFL club since playing in 16 regular-season contests and recording 2.0 sacks with Minnesota in 2021.

The Seahawks are planning to convert Ouzts, whom they selected in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, from tight end to fullback, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Ouzts played a versatile role during his four years in college at Alabama, and as a tight end he worked primarily as a blocker. That should help the rookie with his conversion to a fullback in the NFL, and Henderson notes that the decision is part of a plan by new OC Klint Kubiak to deploy a more physical run game. Ouzts will likely compete for reps in fullback packages with Brady Russell, who is also making a change from tight end to fullback for the coming campaign.

Noteboom signed a contract with the Ravens on Saturday.

Noteboom spent his first seven seasons with the Rams, starting 35 of 71 career regular-season games. He suited up for only four regular-season contests last year, however, as he dealt with an ankle injury throughout the campaign. Noteboom will likely serve as depth along the offensive line for Baltimore this season.

Arroyo said Friday that he is no longer dealing with the knee injury that limited him leading up to the NFL Draft, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

The knee issue prevented Arroyo from running the 40 at either the NFL Combine or his pro day, though Seattle was able to estimate him at 4.52/4.53 based on his GPS speeds. The injury didn't deter the Seahawks from drafting the big tight end out of Miami in the second round (50th overall), however, making him the fifth tight end off the board. Arroyo has a chance to carve out a significant role in the team's offense, especially if he can have a big training camp -- while Noah Fant tallied a respectable 500 receiving yards on 48 catches during the regular season last year, he has only one touchdown reception over the past two campaigns.

Dwelley signed a one-year contract with the 49ers on Friday.

Dwelley spent his first six NFL seasons in San Francisco before playing for the Falcons in 2024. Back in the Bay Area, the 30-year-old Dwelley will compete for a roster spot with the 49ers in 2025. He has just 17 receiving yards in 29 regular-season appearances over the past two seasons, so Dwelley doesn't project to factor into the passing game much, even if he makes the team.

Ford (ankle) agreed to terms Friday on a salary reduction from $3.49 million to a guaranteed $1.75 million for the 2025 season, Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com reports.

Ford's salary reduction follows the Browns' selection of second-round running back Quinshon Judkins at No. 33 overall in April's draft, in addition to running back Dylan Sampson in the fourth round. Per Kabot, had Ford not agreed to a pay cut he would have been a trade candidate, and Cleveland may have re-signed free agent Nick Chubb (foot). With Ford's spot on the roster now essentially guaranteed, the door appears closed for Chubb to reunite with the Browns, barring damage to the team's depth. Zac Jackson and Lauren Smith of The Athletic report that Ford currently retains his hold on the top spot on the depth chart, but his pay cut is a clear indication the role will be up for grabs if Judkins logs a more impressive offseason.
