According to Mike Reiss of ESPN, Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte is currently not attending voluntary workouts with the Patriots, instead working out away from the facility. This could be an indication that trade rumors from SI’s Albert Breer about Boutte being available for a fifth- or sixth-round draft pick could be accurate. WR A.J. Brown is still expected to be traded from the Eagles to the Patriots after June 1st according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, which could push Boutte out with WRs Romeo Doubs, DeMario Douglas, Mack Hollins, Kyle Williams, and Efton Chism III completing the current WR room.

The Steelers and QB Aaron Rodgers have agreed to a one-year deal, according to multiple reports, with $22 million in guarantees and a max value of $25 million. Rodgers will now return for his second season in Pittsburgh and reunite with new HC Mike McCarthy for the first time since 2018.

The Dolphins have agreed to a four-year extension with RB De’Von Achane, according to multiple reports. The deal will pay $64 million, with a max value of $68 million, and includes $32 million in guarantees. Even the lower annual average beats what Breece Hall got on his three-year extension with the Jets ($16 million vs. $15.25 million), and both beat Kenneth Walker III’s free-agent pact with the Chiefs ($14.35 million per year). Only Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey carry larger annual averages among RBs on their current contracts.

The Browns on Friday announced that LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah has landed on the reserve/physically unable to perform list. That means he's out for the entire 2026 season. JOK is still trying to work back from a neck injury he suffered in Week 8 of 2024. He also spent 2025 on the reserve/PUP list.

The Vikings agreed Thursday to a one-year contract with former 49ers WR Jauan Jennings. The deal will pay Jennings $8 million, with potential for the earnings to climb as high as $13 million. Jennings spent his first six NFL seasons in San Francisco and will turn 29 in July.

Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd has appeared in just one regular-season game since Green Bay took him in Round 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Jaguars GM James Gladstone said he expects Travis Hunter to play both offense and defense again this season, and that the team is “absolutely not” done using him as a two-way player. He added that Hunter’s CB percentage and defensive snap count should rise. Hunter played 324 snaps at WR and 162 at CB last season, which matches the earlier reports pointing to a bigger defensive role. Gladstone did not call Hunter a “full-time” CB, but it sounds like those snap counts could be much closer to even in 2026.
