  • Liam Eichenberg: Let go with failed physical

    The Dolphins released Eichenberg (knee) on Monday with a failed physical designation, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Eichenberg spent the entire 2025 season on the reserve/PUP list due to a leg injury that he suffered during the offseason. Per Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post in January, Eichenberg said that he was unsure whether he would be able to play again. While retirement is certainly on the table, if the 2021 second-rounder can progress enough in his recovery, then he should garner interest from teams looking to add depth to their offensive line. Eichenberg started in 52 of 60 regular-season games since he was drafted.

  • Ethan Bonner CB | MIA

    Dolphins' Ethan Bonner: Staying in Miami

    The Dolphins tendered a contract to Bonner on Monday as an exclusive rights free agent.

    As an exclusive rights free agent, Bonner cannot negotiate a contract with a team as long as the tender is in place, so he'll suit up for the Dolphins in 2026. The Stanford played mostly on special teams in 2025 but did see some rotational snaps in the secondary, with Bonner finishing with 15 tackles (eight solo), two pass defenses (one interception) and one fumble recovery across 14 regular-season games.

  • Khalil Mack OLB | LAC

    Chargers' Khalil Mack: Will play in 2026

    Mack has indicated that he will play in the 2026 season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Mack had been considering retirement following his 2025 campaign with the Chargers, which ended in a 16-3 loss to the Patriots in the AFC wild-card round. He put up respectable numbers during the regular season -- 32 total tackles, including 5.5 sacks, and four forced fumbles across 12 games -- but it wasn't to the level of production he had in 2023, when he posted a career-high 17.0 sacks across 17 regular-season games. Even though his sack totals have dropped in the last two years, Mack should garner plenty of interest from teams looking to upgrade their defensive front this offseason.

  • Graham Glasgow: Let go by Lions

    Detroit released Glasgow on Monday.

    Glasgow's release will save the Lions roughly $5.6 million in cap space, per Richard Silva of The Detroit News. The veteran center is entering his age-34 season and projects to draw real interest from teams in need of an experienced starter, even after a relatively lackluster 2025 campaign.

  • Commanders' Nick Allegretti: Signing two-year extension

    Allegretti and the Commanders agreed to terms Monday on a two-year contract extension, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Allegretti will be a candidate to start at center for Washington next season, with the team releasing Tyler Biadasz (ankle). Last year, Allegretti started two games at center in place of an injured Biadasz, looking notably better than he did in 2024, when he suited up for all 17 regular-season games but had to be switched from LG to RG and was then benched. It remains possible that the Commanders will add another option at center in free agency or the 2026 NFL Draft.

  • Marshon Lattimore: Set to be let go by Commanders

    The Commanders plan to release Lattimore (knee) Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Lattimore had been due $18.5 million in 2026, including a $2 million roster bonus next week. However, with the looming move, Lattimore -- who is bouncing back from a torn ACL that landed him on IR this past November -- is slated to hit the open market. Prior to his injury, the 29-year-old cornerback recorded 27 tackles and a pick in nine contests.

  • Bengals' Dalton Risner: Agrees to one-year extension

    Risner and the Bengals agreed to terms Monday on a one-year, $5 million extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Risner started 11 of his 14 regular-season appearances with Cincinnati last season, and he's set to reprise his role as the team's top right guard in 2026. The veteran offensive lineman, who will turn 31 years old this offseason, enjoyed one of the best years of his career last season and appears to have found his footing in head coach Zac Taylor's offense.

  • Jawaan Taylor OT | ATL

    Chiefs' Jawaan Taylor: Set for release or trade

    The Chiefs informed Taylor (elbow) on Monday that he will either be released or traded prior to the start of the new league year March 11, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Taylor remains reliable in pass protection and has one year remaining on his contract, but his release will save Kansas City roughly $20 million in salary cap space. It seems unlikely that the Chiefs manage to trade the 28-year-old right tackle, given the prohibitive nature of the $27 million cap hit his current deal carries for 2026. If he hits the open market, however, Taylor will be projected to join Braden Smith (concussion), Rasheed Walker and Jonah Williams (shoulder) as one of the top available options at tackle. Taylor started all 12 of his regular-season appearances in 2025 before landing on IR due to an elbow injury.

  • Lions' Juice Scruggs: Dealt to Detroit

    The Texans agreed to terms Monday on a trade that will send Scruggs, a fourth-round pick and a seventh-round pick to the Lions in exchange for running back David Montgomery, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.

    Scruggs suited up for all 17 regular-season games (one start) with Houston in 2025 but struggled in that span, making it unlikely that Detroit plans for him to play more than a depth role. The 2023 second-round pick has experience at both center and guard, so at the very least he stands to provide the Lions with versatility along the interior O-line.

  • Cowboys' Donovan Ezeiruaku: Recovering from hip surgery

    Ezeiruaku is five weeks removed from a hip procedure that will limit his participation in offseason activities, though he is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Ezeiruaku suited up for all 17 regular-season games in his rookie year, totaling 40 tackles (20 solo), including 2.0 sacks, plus one forced fumble. He wasn't listed on any of Dallas' final injury reports, but it appears he managed that production while combating a hip issue. As long as he's ready for the start of training camp, Ezeiruaku's recovery shouldn't impede his ability to take a step forward in his development for Year 2.
