Broncos signed DE John Franklin-Myers to a two-year, $15 million contract.

03 May 2024

Just days after acquiring Franklin-Myers from the Jets, the Broncos have given him a new deal to keep him with the team through 2025. The veteran defense end, who totaled 33 tackles and 3.5 sacks last season, will reportedly receive $7.9 million in guaranteed money. Franklin-Myers is a valued pass rusher and run stuffer along the interior. He’s totaled 14.5 sacks over the last three seasons and 154 pressures per PFF. He should provide plenty of punch to Denver’s interior.

Saints declined EDGE Payton Turner’s fifth-year team option for 2025.

03 May 2024

It’s not a surprise for a former No. 28 overall pick who has been limited by injury to just 15 in three years. That includes two in 2023 as he battled a toe issue. Already 25, Turner isn’t particularly young for a player entering the final season of his rookie deal. Turner hasn’t registered a sack since 2022, and has only three for his career.

Chargers agreed to terms with WR DJ Chark on a one-year contract.

03 May 2024

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports it’s worth “up to” $5 million. Although Chark is coming off a quiet campaign for the cellar-dwelling Panthers, it is a much-needed addition for the Chargers’ nonexistent receiver depth. Unless Quentin Johnston takes an unexpected step forward, Chark should immediately slot in as the Chargers’ No. 1 outside wideout. He could develop some WR4 appeal with Justin Herbert even if the Bolts go mega run heavy. Chark’s addition isn’t a huge concern for ...

Bills agreed to terms with LB Deion Jones on a one-year contract.

02 May 2024

The 2016 second-rounder has become something of a journeyman, making 13 appearances and three starts for the Panthers last season after similar 2022 usage in Cleveland. Still on the right side of 30, Jones is landing in a defense whose depth has been tested by injury and salary cap problems. He is the kind of player whom defensive-minded head coach Sean McDermott could make useful for a season.

Ravens signed No. 30 overall pick CB Nate Wiggins to four-year contract.

02 May 2024

The Ravens have wasted little time signing their 2024 rookie class. In addition to getting Wiggins under contract, the Ravens also signed OT Roger Rosengarten, CB T.J. Tampa, and S Sanoussi Kane. Wiggins is an undersized but speedy corner who will help solidify a secondary that’s led by 27-year-old Marlon Humphrey and a rising star in safety Kyle Hamilton. Wiggins won’t be tasked with CB1 duties as long as Humphrey is healthy and has a chance to bolster an already solid Ravens secondary.

Colts exercised the fifth-year option for EDGE Kwity Paye.

02 May 2024

Paye has shown steady improvement over each of his first three years in the league and posted career highs in tackles (52) and sacks (8.5) last season. The Colts selected Paye with the No. 21 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and have reaped the early benefits of that pick. Paye has totaled 18.5 sacks in his career, along with 29 TFLs. For a player who was considered a raw talent after making just 19 college starts, the sky continues to be the limit for Paye, who could be in for a career-year i ...

Titans decline the fifth-year option for CB Caleb Farley.

02 May 2024

As ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler points out, this was to be expected. Farley has played in just 12 games since 2021 and missed all of 2023 with a back injury that has plagued him since 2022. He also suffered a torn ACL in 2021. We haven’t received much word on Farley’s status heading into 2024, but could hear something closer to training camp.

Steelers declined the fifth-year option for RB Najee Harris.

02 May 2024


Packers declined the fifth-year option for CB Eric Stokes.

02 May 2024

NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo was the first to report the decision, noting that despite a solid rookie year, a recent string of injuries to Stokes likely factored into the decision to decline the option. Stokes played in only two games for the Packers last season, opening the year on the PUP list before finally being activated in late October. A hamstring injury would land him on IR four days later, but he would return to play in Weeks 15 and 16 before the same injury sidelined him for the regul ...

During an appearance on SportsRadio 610, Texans GM Nick Caserio said Dameon Pierce will “be a big part of what we’re doing” this season.

02 May 2024

Anything is possible, but this is a tough one to buy into. In his second year in the league, Pierce lost his starting gig to Devin Singletary and finished the year with a 145-416-2 line while averaging 2.9 YPC — a number that feels almost impossible for any running back to hit. The Texans didn’t bring back Singletary, instead opting to trade for Joe Mixon on March 13th and sign him to a three-year, $27 million extension through 2026. Pierce will undoubtedly get his opportunities, but it’s ...

Daniel Jones said he’s “in a good spot” with his knee rehab.

02 May 2024

A rough 2023 was made worse for Jones when he suffered a torn ACL in November. He then sat through an entire offseason wondering if the Giants would replace him despite signing a four-year, $160 million extension with them a year ago. Instead of drafting a new quarterback, the Giants opted to go with wide receiver Malik Nabers, who, in short order, should become Jones’ No. 1 weapon in the passing game. Jones should be ready at or close to the time training camp starts up for the Giants if all ...

Browns GM Andrew Berry said Nick Chubb (knee) is “progressing nicely” in his recovery from his knee injury.

02 May 2024

Berry also noted that Chubb “still has a long way to go.” Chubb continues to work his way back from a brutal knee injury he suffered in Week 2 against the Steelers. The Browns didn’t address running back in the draft but did add veterans D’Onta Foreman and Nyheim Hines earlier this offseason. Reports on Chubb have often been good, with the last coming a few weeks ago when the team announced he had resumed running. Whether or not Chubb is ready for training camp is to be determined, but a ...

Texans GM Nick Caserio said Tank Dell is “doing great” after suffering a “minor” gunshot wound.

02 May 2024

Dell was shot during an altercation in Sanford, Florida, last week and suffered a “minor wound.” He was treated and released from the hospital shortly after, and Caserio said he has “been in and out of the building” since then. With that seeming to be behind him, Dell is also working his way back from a fractured fibula suffered in Week 13 but is expected to be ready in time for the start of the season. Dell posted a 47-709-7 line in 11 games but will face more target competition in 2024 ...

Patriots sign K Joey Slye, formerly of the Jaguars.

02 May 2024

Slye will serve as camp competition for second-year kicker Chad Ryland, who converted on 16-of-25 field goals in his rookie season. Ryland missed 7-of-14 attempts from 40-plus yards out, a range that Slye converted on at a 71.4 percent rate last season. Slye has converted 82.3 percent of his field goals for his career and has spent the last two seasons with Washington. While he was most recently with the Jaguars, Slye never attempted a field goal for them, as he was signed back in mid-March as a ...

Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs (ACL) is expected to be ready for the start of training camp.

02 May 2024

Diggs tore his ACL in practice on September 21, costing him the remainder of the 2023 season. The Cowboys open camp on July 26, which would be 10 months removed from the injury and right in line with the typical rehabilitation window for ACL injuries amongst NFL players. Diggs recorded 11 interceptions in 2021 and remains a vital piece of the aggressive Cowboys secondary.

Buccaneers declined the fifth-year option on EDGE Joe Tryon-Shoyinka.

01 May 2024

Tryon-Shoyinka’s snap rate fell off over the second half of the 2023 season after starting the year playing nearly two-thirds of the defensive snaps. Former mainstay on the edge for the Buccaneers, Shaquil Barrett, is no longer with the team, meaning Tryon-Shoyinka could see his playing time jump back up in the coming season - a season that could amount to an audition for his next contract.

Cowboys declined the fifth-year option on QB Trey Lance’s contract.

01 May 2024

This only confirms previous reports that the team intended on declining the former third-overall draft pick’s fifth-year option. Cooper Rush served as the team’s backup quarterback a season ago and returns to the roster in 2024, making it likely Lance has another year of emergency quarterback duties while technically inactive ahead.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Tyler Boyd has meetings with the Chargers and Titans this week.

01 May 2024

Boyd spent the first eight years of his career in Cincinnati. The Bengals showed no interest in re-signing him after a quiet 2023 season with 667 yards and two scores. The Chargers, on the other hand, could use a veteran slot receiver to round out their young receiver room. Quentin Johnston did next to nothing as a rookie and can’t be counted on to produce in 2024. That leaves first-year receiver Ladd McConkey and veteran wideout Joshua Palmer as Justin Herbert’s top pass-catchers. The Titan ...
