Christian Watson (knee) said his recovery is “going really well.”

05 May 2025

Watson said he’s “got a couple more months” ahead of him, presumably referring to his recovery, although he is not expected to take the field until midseason after tearing his ACL in Week 18. His surgery date has not yet been revealed, so it is difficult to estimate a return-to-play date 10-12 months post-op. For now, we’ll take the positive news and celebrate Watson for “attacking it every day.” His return will probably be in play at some point in late October or early November.

Rams HC Sean McVay said “those conversations are ongoing” when asked about the possibility of trading for Jalen Ramsey.

05 May 2025

The Rams trading for Ramsey is far from a lock, but McVay said during a conversation on SiriusXM’s Mad Dog Sports Radio that the Rams are “never going to shy away from opportunities to increase the competitiveness” of their roster, while also saying “there’s not too much of an update” on the situation as a whole. The Rams first traded for Ramsey in October of 2019, and then traded him to the Dolphins during the 2023 offseason. The 30-year-old corner will be moving from the Dolphins a ...

KDKA Pittsburgh’s Colin Dunlap reports that Browns LB Devin Bush was arrested for simple assault and harassment on Sunday.

05 May 2025

Further details on the matter have not yet been released. Per the police report, Bush is awaiting preliminary arraignment. The Browns re-signed Bush to a one-year, $3.25 million contract in early March, following a 50-tackle season with the team in 2024.

The Washington Post’s Mark Maske reports that Washington, D.C., will host the 2027 NFL Draft on the National Mall.

Speaking to FOX 11’s Ellie French, Christian Watson (knee) said his recovery is “going really well” after tearing his ACL last season.

05 May 2025

Watson said he’s “got a couple more months” ahead of him, presumably referring to his recovery, although he is not expected to take the field until midseason after injuring his ACL in Week 18. His surgery date has not yet been revealed, so it is difficult to estimate a return-to-play date 10-12 months post-op. For now, we’ll take the positive news and celebrate Watson for “attacking it every day.” He should not be counted on for early-season productivity at this time.

Chiefs signed No. 32 overall pick OT Josh Simmons to a four-year contract.

05 May 2025


The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports the 49ers turned down a trade for George Kittle.

05 May 2025

This news came from Russini’s ‘Scoop City’ podcast. Russini reports that an unnamed team offered the 49ers a second-round pick in exchange for Kittle’s services, but the Niners declined the trade and signed him to a four-year extension days later. A second-round pick sounds like solid compensation for Kittle, who will be 32 at the start of this season, but the Niners clearly thought the two-time All-Pro was more valuable to their roster than the pick. Kittle signed a new four-year extens ...

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini believes a deal between the 49ers and Brock Purdy is “closer than we think.”

05 May 2025

Speaking on an episode of her Scoop City podcast, Russini highlights Purdy’s participation in OTAs as “evidence” that a deal is likely coming. While that opinion is largely speculative, she goes on to add that she’s been “doing some digging on it” and feels good about the direction negotiations are heading in. It’s possible that Purdy reporting to OTAs is more a sign off good will than a signal to a deal being done, but we also saw George Kittle report to voluntary workouts shortly ...

Cowboys signed No. 12 overall pick OG Tyler Booker to a four-year, $22.553 million contract.

05 May 2025

Booker is one of a handful of Cowboys rookies to sign his rookie deal. Per Archer, second round pick Donovan Ezeiraku and fifth-rounder Jaydon Blue remain the only unsigned rookies from the class. The Cowboys made Booker the No. 12 pick of this year’s draft to shore up an offensive line that lost Tyler Smith to retirement earlier this offseason. Booker becomes the first rookie first-rounder from the 2025 class to ink his new deal and should step in as a Day 1 starter this upcoming season.

Browns restructured RB Jerome Ford’s contract.

05 May 2025

Entering the final year of his rookie deal, Ford was set to earn up to $3.4 million in 2025. Now, the fourth-year vet will get a guaranteed $1.75 million this season and likely has his roster spot secured for the year. Browns beat writer Mary Kay Cabot points out the signing likely spells the end for Nick Chubb’s time with the Browns. In addition to Ford, the Browns also have rookies Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson on the roster, who have a chance to emerge as the team’s top two backs thi ...

Eagles LB Jihaad Campbell observed rookie minicamp with the inside linebacker group on Friday, as he recovers from offseason shoulder surgery.

05 May 2025

Campbell underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder back in March, and he was not expected to participate in the Eagles’ rookie minicamp. His attendance as an observer can be viewed as an overall positive development. Campbell’s grouping with the inside linebackers is noteworthy since he thrived as an inside linebacker and part-time EDGE at Alabama, and The Athletic’s Brooks Kubena notes, Eagles GM Howie Roseman “refused to categorize Campbell as only an off-ball line ...

Texans worked out free agent RB Nyheim Hines on Thursday.

05 May 2025

Updating a prior report from NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson, the Texans hosted Hines, along with former Bengals RBs Trayveon Williams and Chris Evans, for a workout yesterday. Despite drafting former USC RB Woody Marks in the fourth round, the Texans appear dead set on adding another speedy pass-catching running back to the mix. Although Hines was technically under contract with the Bills (2023) and Browns (2024), he has not played football since tearing his ACL in a July 2023 jet skiing accident. ...

49ers signed TE Ross Dwelley, formerly of the Falcons, to a one-year contract.

05 May 2025

Dwelley entered the NFL as a 2018 UDFA with the 49ers and spent six seasons there before completing a one-off campaign with the 2024 Falcons. Dwelley has failed to earn more than five targets in a single season, dating back to 2020. He can be safely expected to settle in as a rotational blocker in his age-30 season.

The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman reports Packers CB Jaire Alexander did not attend the team’s voluntary workout on Friday.

05 May 2025

ESPN’s Rob Demovsky reported Tuesday that Alexander, who participated in the Packers’ remote sessions last week, and the team “continue to talk about a possible resolution” regarding their contract dispute. The Packers reportedly explored trading the 28-year-old corner earlier this offseason, but his respective $24.6 million and $27 million cap hits over the next two years loom large. The two sides are in a standoff, and it is unclear how things will unfold from here.

Packers signed third-round pick WR Savion Williams to a four-year contract.

05 May 2025

Williams joins the Packers’ comically deep wide receiver group and is best suited to being stashed on dynasty benches. He is unlikely to contribute to re-draft league lineups in year one. Per the NFL’s pre-determined rookie wage scale, the contract is worth up to $6.289 million. The Packers front office also announced the signing of six players drafted in Rounds 3-7, plus 10 undrafted free agents, today. Drafted players include DL Barryn Sorrell, DL Collin Oliver, DL Warren Brinson, CB Micah ...

ESPN’s Brady Henderson reports Seahawks QB Jalen Milroe has been working with private quarterback coach Jordan Palmer for a year and a half.

05 May 2025

Palmer has been helping Milroe improve his “lower-half mechanics” by specifically focusing on Milroe’s weight distribution during the passing motion follow-through. Milroe is an electric athlete who must refine his passing mechanics and processing if he wants to earn and retain a starting job in the NFL. He’s hired the right person to achieve this end. Palmer famously worked with quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow and Sam Darnold previously.

The Houston Chronicle’s Jonathan M. Alexander reports Tank Dell (knee) “will more than likely miss the 2025 season and be placed on the physically unable to perform list.”

04 May 2025

NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson provided us with our last update Dell’s recovery processes back in mid-February, when Dell’s ACL reconstruction was reportedly pending after successful LCL and MCL operations. Per Alexander, Dell underwent ACL reconstruction in early March, beginning the countdown for a potential return in 12 months or less. Returning to play sometime in Spring 2026 would allow Dell to rejoin the team in time for all offseason workouts and organized team activities and, hopefully ...

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh told reporters that personnel decisions regarding the kicker position “will be based on football.”

04 May 2025

Reporters asked Harbaugh about the NFL’s open investigation into Justin Tucker’s 16 sexual assault allegations, and whether the Ravens might move on from Tucker with sixth-round rookie K Tyler Loop now in the fold. Harbaugh answered by saying the Ravens’ organization does not know “anything” about the investigation and has not been given any information by the league. Per Harbaugh, “every decision” the Ravens make must therefore “be based on football,” citing things like practi ...

Chiefs OT Josh Simmons was a surprise participant at rookie minicamp.

04 May 2025

As The Athletic’s Jayna Bardahl notes, Simmons’ participation comes days after head coach Andy Reid suggested the rookie would be sidelined as he continues to recover from a non-contact knee injury he suffered in Week 7 of last year. Simmons did not participate in 11-on-11 drills, per Bardahl, but did dress out and participate in offensive lineman drills. It sounds as if Simmons is hoping to be ready by training camp after the rookie said he wants to “attack rehab as hard as (he) can” in ...

Eagles waived RB Tyrion Davis-Price.

04 May 2025

A former third-round pick of the 49ers back in 2022, Davis-Price has appeared in just eight games during his career, amassing 127 scoreless yards on the ground on 43 carries. The former LSU Tiger has struggled to find his footing in the pros, and will be battling to make a 53-man roster wherever he lands next.
