Free-agent cornerback Rasul Douglas is visiting with the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday, according to NFL insider Tom Pelissero. The 30-year-old spent the last two seasons with the Buffalo Bills after being traded from the Green Bay Packers. Overall, the West Virginia product and former third-round pick has spent time with seven NFL organizations, appearing in regular-season games for four. He has compiled 441 tackles (356 solo), 19 interceptions, 79 pass deflections, three defensive touchdowns, two sacks, and three forced fumbles across 120 games. If he signs in Seattle, he'll provide depth as a versatile veteran behind Devon Witherspoon, Josh Jobe, and Riq Woolen.

The Washington Commanders announced on Tuesday that they will square off against the Miami Dolphins in the league's first-even game in Spain in Madrid in Week 11 on Nov. 16 at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. It will be the final game of the 2025 international NFL slate, and it could be a high-scoring affair between two teams with above-average offenses. Quarterback
Jayden Daniels played well above expectations in his rookie campaign in 2024 and surprisingly led the team to an NFC Championship appearance in his first season. The Dolphins disappointed and did not make the postseason in 2024, but if quarterback
Tua Tagovailoa can stay healthy, Miami still has one of the best one-two punches at wide receiver in
Tyreek Hill and
Jaylen Waddle. Needless to say, fantasy managers will probably have a a lot of skin in this game in Spain.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Minnesota Vikings will become the first NFL team to play in back-to-back international games in 2025 in different countries, facing the Pittsburgh Steelers in the first-ever regular-season NFL game in Dublin, Ireland, on Sept. 28. The Vikings will then travel to London, England, to face the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Oct. 5. Minnesota will be the road team for both international games. In four previous regular-season games in London, the Vikings have won all four, including last year's win over the New York Jets at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The international games for Minnesota will keep them from playing at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, where they've never won, and in Cleveland, where they have one win since 1989.

While with the Pittsburgh Steelers, opposing defenses often double-teamed wide receiver
George Pickens or shaded a safety to his side. Now with the Dallas Cowboys, The Athletic's Ted Nguyen and Saad Yousuf think that teams will continue to double-team
CeeDee Lamb, which will mean more one-on-one coverage for Pickens. The 24-year-old was dealt for a third-round pick because of his inconsistent effort on the field in Pittsburgh, but on paper, he's the perfect complement to Lamb as one of the league's best go-ball receivers that can really stretch a defense down the field. While his effort is lacking and Lamb will draw his fair share of targets, there's no denying that Pickens will be playing with the best QB of his career in
Dak Prescott in an offense that should be pass-happy. If Pickens can stay healthy, he'll have a chance for a career year in 2025.

When asked by Cincinnati Bengals beat writer Paul Dehner Jr. if he envisions any scenario where he will play in 2025 on his current deal, All-Pro pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson said, "No." Although Hendrickson is present for the team's voluntary practice on Tuesday, he voiced his displeasure with the team's lack of communication with him on a potential long-term contract extension since the NFL draft in late April. The 30-year-old said that the Bengals have been pushing a short-term extension with Hendrickson after giving him permission to seek a trade back in March. It doesn't sound like Hendrickson is interested in a short-term deal, and this situation could get even messier if no progress is made closer to the start of the regular season this fall. Hendrickson has a $15.8 million base salary for 2025 after recording 17.5 sacks in each of the last two years.

Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson was seen arriving at the team facility prior to Tuesday's voluntary workout. However, he was not in uniform, and there was no indication that he would take the field for practice. Instead, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Hendrickson is in Cincinnati so that he can speak with the media about his ongoing contract saga. Earlier this week, Hendrickson released a statement claiming that the Bengals have not shown interest in engaging in extension talks since last month's NFL Draft. This development prompted fans and media to criticize the Bengals, who are certainly better when Hendrickson is on the field. One of the best defensive players in the NFL, Hendrickson registered 17.5 sacks last season, made the Pro Bowl, and finished second in Defensive Player of the Year voting.

The New Orleans Saints have signed undrafted free-agent quarterback Hunter Dekkers, according to Anthony Mitchell of KCAU. The 23-year-old had participated in Saints minicamp, and he now earns a roster spot in the aftermath of
Derek Carr's retirement. Dekkers originally played for Iowa State, where he backed up
Brock Purdy before becoming the starting quarterback after Purdy was drafted. However, in 2023, Dekkers stepped away from the Cyclones after being indicted on charges related to sports gambling. He took a year off from football before joining Iowa Western as their starting quarterback in 2024. At Iowa Western, Dekkers completed 64.1 percent of his passes for 3,806 yards, 32 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. He's currently fourth on the Saints' depth chart behind
Tyler Shough,
Spencer Rattler, and
Jake Haener. At this moment, he's projected to open the season on New Orleans' practice squad.

The Atlanta Falcons released wide receiver
Phillip Dorsett on Monday, according to the team's official website. Dorsett's roster spot will go to Caleb Johnson, who recently inked a deal with Atlanta. The veteran receiver signed a futures deal with the Falcons earlier this offseason, but now he's off the team before even participating in camp. Dorsett hasn't played an NFL snap since 2023, when he appeared in two games for Denver. As a Bronco, he commanded three targets but didn't catch a pass. Dorsett's experience and veteran leadership could land him a deal somewhere else, but he still faces an uphill battle to earn a roster spot.

The Detroit Lions announced on Monday that they signed free-agent tight end Luke Deal, wide receiver
Malik Taylor and defensive lineman Raequan Williams while waiving tight end
Caden Prieskorn in a corresponding move. Deal, Taylor and Williams impressed Detroit's coaching staff enough after trying out in the team's rookie minicamp over the weekend. Deal will provide depth for the Lions behind
Sam LaPorta and
Brock Wright if he makes the team after recording 17 catches for 116 yards and two touchdowns in 65 games (19 starts) over six seasons at Auburn. Taylor was on Injured Reserve all of last year with the New York Jets due to an undisclosed injury, but evidently he's healthy now. The 29-year-old entered the NFL in 2020 with the Green Bay Packers and has just nine catches on 13 targets for 93 yards and one touchdown in 28 games (one start) over three seasons.

The Tennessee Titans announced on Monday that they signed undrafted rookie free-agent wide receiver TJ Sheffield and tight end
Drake Dabney after they tried out in last weekend's rookie minicamp. In corresponding moves, undrafted free-agent cornerback Virgil Lemons and safety Jerrin Thompson were waived. Sheffield recorded 172 catches for 1,714 yards and 14 total touchdowns in his collegiate career at Purdue and Connecticut. Dabney started all 13 games at TCU in 2024 after previously appearing in 40 games (24 starts) at Baylor and catching 65 passes for 873 yards and eight touchdowns. Dabney set a single-season school record for the Horned Frogs last year in his senior season for most receiving yards (552) by a tight end. Sheffield and Dabney will be competing for a 53-man roster spot in training camp this summer.

The Denver Broncos signed free-agent tight end
Cole Fotheringham, wide receiver Kyrese White and inside linebacker Jordan Turner after their rookie minicamp over the weekend, according to the team. The team also signed log snapper Zach Triner, who joined the team in April but was released ahead of rookie minicamp. In corresponding moves, the Broncos waived cornerback Kendall Bohler, nose tackle Christian Dowell, linebacker K.J. Cloyd and tight end
Thomas Yassmin. Rookie punter Jeremy Crenshaw was placed on the exempt/international player list and won't count against the team's 90-man roster limit. Fotheringham has one career catch with the Raiders and also spent time on Houston's practice squad in 2024. White caught 44 passes for 526 yards and three touchdowns in 12 starts in his final season at Utah State last year. They will battle for 53-man roster spots this summer.

Cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. (neck) is one of the top free-cornerbacks in this year's class, but he's still waiting to sign with a new team after he had neck surgery in April, sources told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Samuel visited with the New Orleans Saints on Monday. The 25-year-old defensive back has a checkup scheduled in early July, after which he'll reconvene with several interested teams. Samuel plans on returning to the field in 2025 after making just four starts with the Los Angeles Chargers in 2024 due to neck and shoulder injuries. The former second-rounder (47th overall) in 2021 out of Florida State has 176 tackles (148 solo), six interceptions, 37 pass breakups and a fumble recovery in 50 regular-season games (47 starts) for the Bolts since entering the league in 2021. He should definitely latch on with a new team before training camp in July.

The Denver Broncos will travel to Kansas City to face the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day in 2025 on Prime Video in Week 17. The game could come with plenty of playoff implications late in the season. The Chiefs have dominated the AFC West in the last decade, winning nine straight division titles from 2016 to 2026, but the Broncos are looking to change that this year with head coach Sean Payton and second-year quarterback
Bo Nix, who led the team to the postseason in 2024 for the first time since 2015. The Chiefs narrowly beat the Broncos in Kansas City a year ago on a blocked field goal before the Broncos beat KC in a blowout in the Week 18 regular-season finale when the Chiefs rested all of their starters before the playoffs.

The San Francisco 49ers are hosting former Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills free-agent wide receiver
Gabe Davis (knee) on a visit on Monday, a source tells FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. The Jaguars released Davis with a failed-physical designation last Wednesday. The 26-year-old continues to recover from the knee injury he dealt with in 2024, but he's expected to be fully healthy for the 2025 regular season. Davis was a disappointment for the Jags and fantasy managers a year ago, as he set career-lows in catches (20), targets (42), receiving yards (239) and touchdowns (two) while playing only 10 games (nine starts). He should be able to bounce back if healthy, though, and he'd provide the Niners with a field-stretching presence in the passing game with
Brandon Aiyuk (knee) potentially not being ready for the start of the year. Still, Davis would be a volatile boom/bust fantasy receiver in San Fran.
