1 week agoFree-agent linebacker Matthew Adams has signed with the New York Giants, as reported by NFL insider Field Yates. The 2018 seventh-round pick spent last season with the Cleveland Browns after one year with the Chicago Bears and four years with the Indianapolis Colts. The University of Houston product has racked up 98 tackles (68 solo), two forced fumbles, and 11 run stuffs in 85 career games. In all likelihood, he'll be utilized as a special teamer and reserve linebacker in new defensive coordinator Shane Bowen's new system.

2 weeks agoThe Cleveland Browns are trading offensive tackle Leroy Watson to the Tennessee Titans for the No. 227 overall pick (seventh round) in the 2024 NFL Draft. Watson spent time with the Atlanta Falcons and San Francisco 49ers after being undrafted in the 2022 NFL Draft. He saw his first NFL action last season with Cleveland, playing 55 offensive snaps in seven games. Tennessee needs depth on the offensive line, and legendary offensive line coach Bill Callahan left the Browns to join his son, Brian, in Tennessee for the 2024 campaign. That is the likely connection that led to this trade.

2 weeks agoUniversity of Georgia wide receiver
Ladd McConkey is visiting with the Atlanta Falcons on Friday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He also recently met with the Cleveland Browns. McConkey didn't have the most prolific college career, but he posted 119 receptions for 1,687 yards and 14 touchdowns in 39 career games. He's also a dynamic weapon in the backfield, compiling 216 yards and four touchdowns on just 13 rushing attempts. After running a sub-4.4 forty-yard dash at the 2024 NFL Combine, he could be selected as early as the late first round. Atlanta could use more speed in the new-look
Kirk Cousins offense, so it will be interesting to see if they make a move to keep McConkey in the state of Georgia to begin his NFL career.

2 weeks agoFree-agent wide receiver
Equanimeous St. Brown has signed with the New Orleans Saints, according to NFL insider Ari Meirov. Originally a sixth-round pick out of Notre Dame by the Green Bay Packers in 2018, St. Brown has been utilized as a depth receiver in his six NFL seasons. In 60 career games, the 27-year-old has hauled in 63 of his 110 targets for 928 yards and two touchdowns. He's added 80 yards as a runner. Based on his career trajectory, he's unlikely to make a fantasy impact in New Orleans this year. He can be safely ignored for now.

2 weeks agoThe New Orleans Saints have signed free-agent quarterback
Kellen Mond, according to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team. The former Texas A&M Aggie was a third-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2021 NFL Draft after a strong college career, but he has not found his footing in the NFL. He has spent time with the Vikings, Browns, and Colts, but his last game action was in 2021. He completed just two passes for five yards. New Orleans has quarterbacks
Jake Haener and
Nathan Peterman on the roster, so it would be a surprise if Mond makes the team for the regular season.

2 weeks agoThe Buffalo Bills are hosting Oregon wide receiver
Troy Franklin for a visit. Franklin is drawing a ton of interest after posting elite numbers during his final year at Oregon. He totaled 1,383 receiving yards with 14 touchdowns on 81 receptions. Franklin has already visited with the Browns, Jets, Panthers, and Patriots this offseason. The Bills are dangerously thin at wideout after losing their two top receivers. Franklin doesn't project as a superstar in the league, but could certainly make some noise in Buffalo, assuming they decide to draft him.

2 weeks agoPhiladelphia Eagles wide receiver
DeVonta Smith appears to be in the process of discussing a contract extension with the organization. The Eagles have already handed out two big extensions this offseason, so Smith could be next in line. The 25-year-old is entering his fourth season in the league after being drafted in the first-round by the Eagles in 2021. Smith has produced back-to-back 1,000-yard campaigns. He has established himself as an elite wideout in the league and should see a hefty extension soon.

2 weeks agoThe Indianapolis Colts are hosting Texas wide receiver
Xavier Worthy for a visit on Friday. His draft stock has seen an increase since Worthy broke the 40 yard dash record during the NFL Combine. It's worth noting that Worthy has also done a visit with the Chicago Bears. The 20-year-old should be an explosive option for whichever team decides to draft him later this month. He notched nearly 1,000 receiving yards on 62 receptions with a dozen touchdown grabs during his most recent season at Texas. The Colts could have a dynamic duo between Worthy and
Michael Pittman Jr., assuming they decide to draft him this April.

2 weeks agoKansas City Chiefs wide receiver
Rashee Rice has turned himself into the police following an arrest warrant being issued for his involvement in a multiple vehicle crash. Rice faces up to eight felony charges related to a collision in a street race. The young wideout owned both cars in the crash and was seen leaving the scene following the incident. There has been a $40,000 bond posted and more discipline is likely to come. There is a chance that Rice will be suspended by the Chiefs or the NFL, so missing some regular season action seems likely at this point. There should be more information on this situation as the summer rolls on.

2 weeks agoRetired quarterback
Tom Brady stated on Thursday that he wouldn't rule out returning to the NFL late in a season if a team calls in an "emergency situation." Brady, who retired from the league at the conclusion of the 2022 season, has had his name pop up in several rumors since hanging up his cleats. It appears that he still has the itch to play, but it remains to be seen whether he would actually wind up returning to the league or if a team would want his services.

2 weeks agoThe Los Angeles Rams re-signed linebacker Troy Reeder to an undisclosed deal on Thursday. Reeder entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2019 out of Delaware with the Rams and spent the first three years of his career in LA before joining the Chargers in 2022. In 17 regular-season games (six starts) for the Rams in 2023, he had 23 tackles (11 solo). The 29-year-old has mostly been a special-teams standout in his five years in the NFL and has accumulated 264 tackles (154 solo), five sacks, 11 tackles for loss, eight QB hits, two interceptions, nine passes defended and three forced fumbles in 83 games played (31 starts). Reeder will not be on the radar for fantasy managers in IDP leagues. On the defensive side, he'll merely be a rotational depth linebacker.

2 weeks agoTennessee Titans wide receiver
Treylon Burks, the team's first-round pick in 2022, has been a big disappointment in his first two NFL seasons and is heading into a critical third year with Tennessee in 2024. The 24-year-old has missed a lot of time due to injuries and just hasn't produced when he's been on the field. Now that
Calvin Ridley is in town, he's set to be the No. 3 receiver behind Ridley and
DeAndre Hopkins. "Treylon's potential is very high. First-round pick, we see all the talent. But he's going to get what he earns," offensive coordinator Nick Holz said. New head coach Brian Callahan also didn't mention Burks' name when discussing options for the slot. Burks' fantasy stock is obviously way down, and even if he stays healthy in 2024, he could struggle to produce consistently as the No. 3 with a young quarterback running the offense.

2 weeks agoMiami Dolphins quarterback
Tua Tagovailoa reiterated that he will not hold out as he looks for a long-term contract extension and plans on attending voluntary organized team activities this spring. The Dolphins are saying that they prefer to extend Tagovailoa, but as things stand now, the 26-year-old former first-rounder is set to play the 2024 season on the fifth-year option from his rookie deal. Despite leading the NFL with 4,624 passing yards while throwing a career-high 29 touchdowns and 14 interceptions in 2023 in his fourth year in the league, Tagovailoa was only the QB9 at the end of the year in fantasy points because of his lack of rushing at the position. As long as he has receivers
Tyreek Hill and
Jaylen Waddle to throw to, Tagovailoa will be on the midrange to low-end QB1 map, but his overall upside is lacking.

2 weeks agoFormer Tulane quarterback
Michael Pratt has had eight total visits or private workouts with teams since the 2024 NFL Combine, according to Tom Pelissero. He visited with the New York Jets and Cleveland Browns this week, and several other teams are interested in him. Pratt could find his way into the third round of this month's draft after throwing for 9,611 yards, 90 touchdowns, and 26 interceptions in four collegiate seasons. The 22-year-old posted a 21-3 record over the last two seasons and could have sleeper potential as at least a backup quarterback to monitor in Superflex or two-QB leagues.

2 weeks agoThe New York Giants are signing veteran defensive tackle Jordan Phillips, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. The nine-year NFL veteran has spent time with the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, and Arizona Cardinals, and he has racked up 181 tackles, 24 sacks, three forced fumbles, one interception, and 25.5 run stuffs in 120 career games. New York already has Pro Bowl defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence and edge rusher Brian Burns, so Phillips won't be expected to be dominant in 2024. However, he's an experienced run-stopper with the ability to give the team a few sacks.
