1 month agoFormer Dallas Cowboys nose tackle Johnathan Hankins is expected to sign an undisclosed deal with the Seattle Seahawks, according to a person close to the situation. The Cowboys were interested in bringing Hankins back, but the Seahawks offered more. The 31-year-old came into the NFL as a second-round pick of the New York Giants in 2013 out of Ohio State and spent the first four years of his career in the Big Apple before also playing for the Indianapolis Colts and Las Vegas Raiders. Hankins had 27 tackles (13 solo) and three sacks in 14 regular-season starts for Dallas in 2023. He will help beef up the interior of Seattle's defensive line in 2024 and brings veteran experience, but Hankins shouldn't be drafted in IDP fantasy leagues.

1 month agoThe Minnesota Vikings agreed to terms on an undisclosed deal with free-agent center/guard Dan Feeney on Tuesday. Feeney will bring plenty of versatility and experience to Minnesota in 2024, having appeared in 112 games (65 starts) over his seven NFL seasons after originally being taken in the third round (71st overall) by the Los Angeles Chargers in 2017 out of Indiana. He spent the 2023 campaign with the Chicago Bears, appearing in 16 games (one start) in the Windy City. The 29-year-old will come to the Vikings in 2024 looking to plug a hole on the interior of their offensive line, and he could be blocking for a rookie quarterback if the team trades up in the first round of the draft to select one.

1 month agoNew Orleans Saints executive vice president/general manager Mickey Loomis announced on Tuesday that the team re-signed safety Ugo Amadi to an undisclosed deal.

In a depth capacity for New Orleans in 2023, the 26-year-old safety has 12 tackles (six solo) in 17 games played (zero starts). Amadi will do the same again in 2024 while also contributing on special teams for the Saints. Avoid him in IDP fantasy leagues.

1 month agoThe Green Bay Packers re-signed cornerback Robert Rochell to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday, according to general manager Brian Gutekunst. In his first year with Green Bay in 2023, Rochell played in just nine games (zero starts) and recorded four solo tackles. He also suited up for both of the team's playoff games. The 25-year-old was a fourth-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2021 out of Central Arkansas. He has started only five of the 37 games he's played in so far in three NFL seasons (two with the Rams), totaling 23 tackles (20 solo), an interception and two fumble recoveries. Rochell will return to the Packers in 2024 to provide both secondary and special teams depth.

1 month agoThe Baltimore Ravens re-signed cornerback Arthur Maulet to an undisclosed two-year deal on Tuesday.

The 30-year-old entered the league in 2017 with the New Orleans Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Memphis. Maulet will return to Baltimore for another two years to give them secondary depth. In his seven NFL seasons, Maulet has tallied 220 tackles (164 solo), five sacks, 17 tackles for loss, eight QB hits, four interceptions, 16 passes defended, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries (one returned for a touchdown) in 82 games (23 starts).

1 month agoThe Cleveland Browns re-signed wide receiver/kick returner
James Proche II to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday. Proche, a former sixth-round selection by the Baltimore Ravens in 2020 out of SMU, didn't catch any of his five targets in 10 regular-season games (one start) in 2023 in his first year with the Browns. He did, however, return 22 points for 197 yards and one kickoff for a gain of 19 yards last year. The 27-year-old has a grand total of 25 career receptions on 45 targets for 278 yards and no touchdowns in 53 games (one start) in his four NFL seasons, so he's not going to be a factor suddenly on offense for Cleveland in 2024. Proche will, however, give the Browns another option to return kicks on special teams yet again.

1 month agoFormer Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Mike Williams (knee) is signing with the New York Jets, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. The 29-year-old will ink a one-year deal worth up to $15 million. Williams was recently released by the Chargers after seven seasons with the organization. He totaled 309 receptions for 4,806 yards and 31 touchdowns with the Bolts. He'll now join an offense with
Aaron Rodgers,
Breece Hall, and
Garrett Wilson, so assuming he has a successful recovery from a torn ACL suffered in Week 3 of last season, he could be due for spike weeks in 2024 fantasy football. That said, he has struggled to stay on the field over the last two years after a 1,146-yard season in 2021, so fantasy managers should proceed with caution when considering him in drafts this year.

1 month agoFree-agent offensive tackle Olisaemeka Udoh is signing with the New Orleans Saints, the team announced on X. The former sixth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft has spent his entire five-year career with the Minnesota Vikings and now heads to The Big Easy to play for Dennis Allen. Udoh has 43 games and 18 starts of NFL experience under his belt, but he's likely to be a backup tackle for New Orleans in 2024. He played under new Saints offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak while in Minnesota in 2019 and 2020.

Overall, the 2018 third-round pick has totaled 366 tackles, one sack, one forced fumble, seven interceptions, 64 passes defended, and 10 run stuffs in 89 games with the Seahawks, Jaguars, Texans, and Panthers. The 28-year-old's best days as a player are likely behind him, but he could still be a solid depth player for the rebuilding Vikings in 2024.

Jerry Jeudy to a three-year contract extension worth up to $58 million. The deal includes $41 million guaranteed.

Jeudy, a former first-round pick in 2020, has hauled in 211 passes for 3,053 yards and 11 touchdowns through his first 57 NFL games. He has failed to reach 900 yards in three of his first four seasons. Cleveland appears to be high on him and his chances to reignite his career with new surroundings. He is slated to start alongside
Amari Cooper and
Elijah Moore in three-wide sets.

1 month agoVeteran free-agent cornerback Tre'Davious White is set to visit with the New York Giants and Tennessee Titans, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It was previously reported that White was visiting with the Los Angeles Rams and Las Vegas Raiders this week, so there are several teams in the mix for the former All-Pro. White was recently released by the Buffalo Bills after seven seasons with the organization, mostly due to cap space and injury concerns. The 29-year-old has played in just ten games over the last two years, racking up two interceptions and eight passes defended. Nonetheless, teams in desperate need of help in the backend are likely interested in bringing him in on a cheap one-year deal to see if he can turn his career around.

Brown gave up three sacks in 955 snaps in 2023. He figures to compete with Hjalte Froholdt for the starting center job in quarterback
Kyler Murray's offense to begin the 2024 campaign.

1 month agoVeteran free-agent defensive tackle Sebastian Joseph-Day is signing a one-year deal with the Tennessee Titans, as reported by NFL Network's Jason McCourty. Joseph-Day spent last season with the San Francisco 49ers but only appeared in two games.

He will likely slot in as the starting nose tackle next to All-Pro defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons.

1 month agoRecently signed New Orleans Saints edge defender Chase Young (neck) is scheduled to undergo a neck procedure that is expected to sideline him for training camp, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. This was announced after he reached a one-year, $13 million deal with New Orleans, but the teams he spoke to apparently knew about it. Nonetheless, the Saints were comfortable with signing him under these conditions. Young, the former No. 2 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, has posted 16.5 sacks through his first 43 games with the Washington Commanders and San Francisco 49ers. With Cameron Jordan and Carl Granderson already in the edge rotation, Young has the upside to make this a strong pass-rushing unit in 2024. He is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season.
