49ers TE George Kittle could open the season on the PUP list as he works back from an Achilles injury, according to NBC Sports Bay Area’s Matt Maiocco.
Saints RB Alvin Kamara has been bandied as a trade or cut candidate all offseason, especially since the arrival of RB Travis Etienne. But, appearing on Terron Armstead's The Set on Monday, Kamara sounded set on returning for another season in New Orleans.
You might remember that then-Patriots WR Stefon Diggs got arrested late last season on felony charges of strangulation and assault related to an early December incident. Diggs' trial started Monday, and that case likely plays a large role in both why Diggs currently has no team and when/whether that might change.
Chiefs HC Andy Reid said Saturday that QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) is on track to participate in the team's first OTA sessions from May 26-28. That'll be about 5.5 months after Mahomes had surgery to repair the ACL and LCL in his left knee. Mahomes has been throwing since at least late March, when he posted a video of himself working out on social media.
Raiders QB Fernando Mendoza said he has a “long way to go” in his adjustment to playing under center. He took only 3% of his snaps under center at Indiana last season, per ESPN.
Giants WR Darius Slayton recently underwent surgery to address a core-muscle injury, NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports. Slayton will miss spring workouts but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, Garafolo adds.
Jaguars beat writer John Shipley believes new RB Chris Rodriguez will lead the team in carries in 2025. He also thinks the workload could be close to even with second-year RB Bhayshul Tuten. The Jaguars were rumored to be interested in moving up for a RB ahead of the NFL Draft, but they drafted none and added only UDFA J’Mari Taylor to the room. For now, Rodriguez, Tuten, and LeQuint Allen appear set to make up the active gameday roster at the position.
Commanders GM Adam Peters expects rookie WR Antonio Williams to be able to play both the 'Z' and slot receiver positions. WR Terry McLaurin is locked in as the 'X,' but there's clear opportunity for Williams to earn snaps right away at those other two spots.
Ravens GM Eric DeCosta said after drafting WR Elijah Sarratt that the team believes he can play both outside and in the slot. "We think he’s really, really good inside," DeCosta added. Sarratt spent most of his time in college on the outside, but there are reasons to believe that the slot might be a better fit.
Broncos QB Bo Nix underwent a second procedure on his surgically repaired right ankle, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The “clean-up” surgery was performed last week in Birmingham, AL, by Dr. Norman Waldrop III, who also handled the initial procedure on January 19.
Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot reports that QB Deshaun Watson appears to be moving toward being named the Browns' starter for the coming season.
Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks said Tuesday that he's been fully cleared to participate in the offseason program, according to The Athletic's Joe Person. Brooks missed the entire 2025 season after tearing his right ACL for the second time in a 13-month span. Brooks added Tuesday that he feels "close to 100%."
The Chargers have exercised the fifth-year option on WR Quentin Johnston's contract. That keeps him signed through 2027 and will pay him $18 million guaranteed in that final year of the deal. The Chargers' brass had previously been non-committal on the option, perhaps waiting to see what the draft brought to the WR room.
The Ravens had planned to have former Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia try out this weekend, but that plan changed Tuesday. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the team has instead signed Pavia to a three-year deal. That contract's unlikely to actually lock Pavia in with Baltimore for the next three years and probably won't even guarantee that he sticks around for this season. (Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team points out that "all undrafted free agent contracts are 3-year deals.") But the change likely indicates that the QB had other interested suitors.
The Buccaneers signed Georgia Tech WR Eric Rivers as an undrafted free agent this week. Rivers opened his college career as a walk-on DB at Memphis in 2021, then missed the following season with a shoulder injury. He transferred to Florida International in 2023 and enjoyed a solid first season at wideout. Despite missing a game, Rivers ranked second on the team in catches (32) and TD receptions (2), and third in receiving yards (370). He broke out with a big 62-1,172-12 receiving line in 2024, racking up 18.9 yards per catch. His 3.57 yards per route ranked second among 347 FBS WRs who drew at least 40 targets that season. A transfer to Georgia Tech produced a quieter final season, though Rivers led the Yellow Jackets with 658 receiving yards and tied for the receptions lead (46).
The Vikings picked up the fifth-year option on WR Jordan Addison. That puts him under contract through the 2027 season for $18 million guaranteed.
Cincinnati WR Jeff Caldwell signed with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent. Caldwell’s profile is built on size and athleticism. The 6’5, 216-pounder registered a perfect 10.0 Relative Athletic Score at the Combine, fueled by a 4.31-second 40 time and a 42-inch vertical. That speed showed up in his 14.9 yards per catch last year. Caldwell’s overall production profile is lacking, though. He spent his first four college seasons at FCS Lindenwood, finally breakout out for 1,032 yards and 11 TDs in 2024. Caldwell transferred to Cincinnati this past year and finished third on the team with 478 receiving yards and second with six TDs. His 19.0% dominator rating ranked just 35th among the 49 WRs invited to the Combine. Caldwell boasts a large catch radius, to go along with the size/speed combination. But his catch and route technique need work.
The Raiders signed undrafted free agent RB Roman Hemby. Hemby broke out as a sophomore at Maryland, rushing 188 times for 989 yards and 10 TDs. He caught 33 passes that year, the first of three straight seasons with 30+ receptions. His receiving output dipped to 17 grabs for 165 yards at Indiana in 2025. But he paired with Kaelon Black to form one of the nation’s best backfield tandems. Hemby tallied career highs in carries (230) and rushing yards (1,120). Among the 20 RBs invited to the NFL Combine, Hemby ranked 16th in 2025 rushing market share (31.2%), and 11th in yards after contact per attempt (3.36). He ranked 18th in 2025 missed tackles forced per attempt (0.16) and ninth in receiving yards per route run (0.95). He is currently 23 years old.
The Jaguars signed Virginia RB J’Mari Taylor after he went undrafted. It took four seasons at North Carolina Central for Taylor to seize a lead role, but he delivered once he got there. His 2024 campaign produced 1,146 yards and 15 TDs on 196 attempts, including 700 yards after contact, per Pro Football Focus. That blend of power and persistence translated well after his transfer to Virginia. In a zone-heavy system, Taylor topped 1,000 rushing yards again, despite just 4.8 yards per carry. That included three 100-yard efforts across his final five games. Add in 43 receptions, and the resume looks solid. Among the 20 RBs invited to the NFL Combine, Taylor ranked ninth in 2025 rushing market share (44.1%), and 10th in yards after contact per attempt (3.39). He ranked sixth in 2025 missed tackles forced per attempt (0.25) and 10th in receiving yards per route run (0.91). He is currently 24 years old.
The Dolphins signed undrafted free agent RB Le’Veon Moss, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. Moss played four seasons at Texas A&M, peaking in 2024. He posted 6.3 yards per carry, scored 10 times, and churned out 4.4 yards after contact per attempt, per Pro Football Focus. That’s high-end production in the SEC. Then the injuries hit. A knee injury wiped out his final four games in 2024. And an ankle injury the next August restricted him to just 77 carries this past year. HC Mike Elko publicly backed him after the 2025 injury, calling him a “warrior.” Among the 20 RBs invited to the NFL Combine, Moss ranked 15th in 2025 rushing market share (34.7%) and ninth in yards after contact per attempt (3.47). He ranked 17th in 2025 missed tackles forced per attempt (0.16) and last in receiving yards per route run (0.05). He is currently 23 years old.
