Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back
Rachaad White is one of the best players remaining on the free-agent market this week, and the NFL Network's Mike Garafolo says he was told that White is one of the fallback options at RB for the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle failed to re-sign Super Bowl MVP
Kenneth Walker III, who signed with the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday, and
Zach Charbonnet (knee) might not be ready for Week 1 this fall after tearing his ACL in the playoffs. The 27-year-old won't be back in Tampa after the Bucs signed
Kenneth Gainwell on Monday, but he could be the perfect fit with an expanded role for the Super Bowl-champion Seahawks in 2026. The former third-round pick in 2022 out of Arizona State is a dual threat out of the backfield and had 1,500 scrimmage yards in his second year in the league in 2023 with the Bucs. If he were to land in Seattle, White could be a sneaky RB selection in 2026 fantasy drafts as the top option out of Seattle's backfield, at least early on.

The Buffalo Bills and Pro Bowl tight end
Dawson Knox agreed to a new, undisclosed three-year contract on Tuesday, sources told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Knox was a Pro Bowler for the first time in his career back in 2022, when he caught 48 of 65 targets for 517 yards and six touchdowns in 15 starts. The 29-year-old has been much less intriguing for fantasy football purposes since the Bills drafted
Dalton Kincaid in the first round in 2023. In the last three seasons with Knox sharing playing time with Kincaid, the 29-year-old has totaled 80 receptions on 118 targets for 914 yards and seven total touchdowns in 45 games (36 starts). Knox still has plenty of chemistry with quarterback
Josh Allen and is a key red-zone asset in the passing game, but unless Kincaid misses time with an injury in 2026, Knox will merely be a touchdown-dependent TE2 with limited upside.

The Athletic's Mike DeFabo believes that newly acquired wide receiver
Michael Pittman Jr., a player with good size (6-foot-4, 223 pounds), physicality, and pedigree, will be a good fit with the Pittsburgh Steelers. If the Steelers re-sign quarterback
Aaron Rodgers, the 42-year-old future Hall of Famer "seems to prefer veterans who understand the nuances of route running, how to read coverages and what it takes to prepare for an opponent." Pittman, who should slot in as the No. 2 behind
DK Metcalf, "checks a lot of those boxes." The 28-year-old will receive a new three-year, $59 million contract with the Steelers after being acquired from the Indianapolis Colts on Monday. Pittman did lead the Colts with 80 catches last year and had a career-best seven touchdowns, but his yardage total (784) was down for a second straight season. His 2026 fantasy value hinges on whether Rodgers returns for another season in Pittsburgh.

The Green Bay Packers are releasing cornerback Nate Hobbs (knee) on Tuesday with a post-June 1 designation, a source told Rob Demovsky of ESPN. With the move, the Packers will save $8 million against the 2026 salary cap. The move doesn't come as a huge surprise, as Hobbs played in only 11 games (five starts) for the second straight season in 2025 and finished the year with a torn MCL that he suffered in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens. The 26-year-old signed a four-year, $48 million contract with Green Bay in March of last year. Hobbs was drafted in 2021 by the Las Vegas Raiders in the fifth round out of Illinois. It's unclear if Hobbs will be ready to go for the start of the 2026 season this fall, but if he is, he should be a candidate to start with another team. Injuries have been an issue for him, though, as Hobbs has played more than 13 games in a season just once, back in his rookie season in 2021.

The New York Giants are expected to sign former Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Greg Newsome to an undisclosed one-year deal, multiple sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. The 25-year-old former 26th overall pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2021 out of Northwestern is a strong pickup for New York's secondary in new head coach John Harbaugh's first season. Newsome began the 2025 season with Cleveland before joining the Jacksonville Jaguars via trade. He finished with a career-high 52 tackles (41 solo), an interception, and nine pass breakups in 17 regular-season games played. Newsome managed to play in a career-high 17 games in 2025 despite battling through ankle, hamstring, and shoulder injuries. In his five years in the NFL, Newsome has 207 tackles (163 solo), one sack, six tackles for loss, four interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), and 43 pass breakups in 71 games (58 starts).

The Buffalo Bills and kicker
Tyler Bass (hip, groin) agreed to a revised contract on Tuesday that includes $1 million guaranteed and a chance to earn up to $3.5 million in 2026, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Bass missed the entire 2025 season due to injury, so a pay cut was inevitable. The 29-year-old made 24 of his 29 field-goal attempts (4-for-4 from 50-plus yards) and went 59-for-64 on his extra points in 17 games during the regular season for Buffalo in 2024. The former sixth-rounder (188th overall) in 2020 out of Georgia Southern has made 84.5% of his 155 field-goal attempts in his five years in the NFL, all with the Bills. He has two years left on his contract and should enter the start of the 2026 season this fall as the team's starting placekicker, which will make him attractive again in most fantasy leagues.

Carolina Panthers running back
Chuba Hubbard was one of 2024's most successful fantasy breakouts, finishing his fourth professional season as the RB15, but 2025 brought hardships in the form of injuries and a frustrating timeshare with
Rico Dowdle. With Dowdle now agreeing to a two-year pact with the Steelers in the opening hours of the NFL's legal tampering window, Hubbard again finds himself with a chance to claim the top spot on the depth chart. After a day in which the Panthers committed to spending big on the defensive side of the ball, the running backs' room is left with Hubbard, the oft-injured
Jonathon Brooks, and 2025 fourth-round pick
Trevor Etienne. If the team believes in the receiving prowess of Brooks and Etienne, this very well could be the trio they enter the 2026 season with, perhaps with the addition of a late-round depth piece from a rookie class not necessarily touted for the strength of its running back group.

Denver Broncos running back
RJ Harvey finished his 2025 rookie campaign as the lead back in the Mile High City, following a Week 10 foot injury that ended
J.K. Dobbins' first season with the team. Expected to pursue the position aggressively when the legal tampering window opened on Monday, the Broncos agreed to a new two-year deal with Dobbins, worth up to $20 million with $8 million guaranteed. After handing out one of the larger running back deals of the day, it would appear that Harvey will find himself in a similar position to the one in which he opened his rookie season as the clear 1B in a timeshare with Dobbins. Harvey was able to salvage his fantasy season, with a traditionally unsustainable 12 touchdowns, but he lacked notable explosiveness, and his 128-touch pace through the year's first ten weeks was well below what fantasy managers had hoped for following his lofty second-round NFL Draft capital and rumblings of his usage in Sean Payton's Joker role.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back
Bhayshul Tuten appears to have benefited from the first day of the NFL's legal tampering window, watching former teammate
Travis Etienne Jr. agree to a four-year deal with the New Orleans Saints to leave him presently atop the depth chart. With most of the bigger-name free agent backs already finding new homes in the first 24 hours of open negotiation, and the Jaguars likely picking too late in the draft to add an impactful Day 1 rookie, Tuten has a strong chance to enter his second season as the team's number one option out of the backfield. Currently joining him on the depth chart are 2025 seventh-round pick LeQuint Allen, who spent much of his rookie year relegated to special teams, handling only 23 rushing attempts, and seventh-year journeyman
DeeJay Dallas.

Pro Bowl linebacker Devin Lloyd has agreed to a three-year, $45 million contract with the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers, who also agreed to terms on a four-year deal with edge rusher Jaelan Phillips, continue to reshape their defense by bringing in the 27-year-old off-ball linebacker who is coming off one of the most impactful seasons of his four-year career. A Pro-Bowler and Second-Team All-Pro in 2025, the former Jaguar finished the year with a career-high 10 quarterback hits and five interceptions, including one that he returned 99 yards for his first career touchdown. Lloyd is now one of the ten-highest-paid players at the position and will be the focal point of a Panthers defense on which the team committed to spending big on the first day of legal tampering.

Former Jets guard Alijah Vera-Tucker has reached agreement on a three-year deal with the New England Patriots, worth up to $48 million. The 14th overall pick in 2021 has shown flashes of dominance throughout his injury-riddled career, but has had difficulty staying on the field through five years in the league. He has played in only 43 of a possible 85 games while facing significant season-ending injuries such as a torn Achilles and two torn triceps, one of which cost him his entire 2025 season. With the Patriots trading 2025 starting center Garrett Bradbury to the Bears, second-year lineman Jared Wilson is expected to kick in from left guard to his natural position at the pivot. Vera-Tucker projects to slot in at the vacated guard spot between Wilson and fellow sophomore Will Campbell, bringing a veteran presence to the left side of a line that saw its share of postseason struggles.

The Kansas City Chiefs are re-signing wide receiver
Tyquan Thornton to a two-year, $11 million deal that includes a maximum value of $14 million, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL.com. Thornton is a former second-round pick of the New England Patriots, but he joined the Chiefs prior to the 2025 season. Throughout the year, he caught 19 of his 37 targets for 438 yards and three touchdowns. These aren't otherworldly numbers, but he was consistent enough to both establish himself within the Chiefs' depth chart and also earn a new deal to come back for 2026 and beyond. Fantasy managers should temper expectations on Thornton, though, at least for the time being. He peaked at WR81 in PPR leagues (last year) and will have a tough time cracking the top 75 in both dynasty startup and redraft leagues during 2026.

The Tennessee Titans have signed free-agent cornerback Alontae Taylor to a three-year, $60 million contract that includes $42 million fully guaranteed, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Taylor represents another major splash on the first day of the tampering window for the Titans, who also reportedly agreed to terms with wide receiver
Wan'Dale Robinson and defensive lineman
John Franklin-Myers. Across 16 games (15 starts) in 2025, Taylor racked up two interceptions, 11 passes defended, two sacks, and 83 tackles. It's exciting to see defensive-minded head coach Robert Saleh go out and invest so much money into the defense this early in March. Titans fans and fantasy managers should be excited about the team's 2026 defense with Franklin-Myers and Taylor already signed, and surely even more moves yet to come.

The Tennessee Titans have signed defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers to a three-year, $63 million contract, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL.com. Franklin-Myers was a fourth-round pick in 2018, and he has enjoyed breakout years with both the New York Jets and Denver Broncos. Most recently, in 2025, he was a Bronco, racking up 7.5 sacks and 25 tackles across 16 games (15 starts). He has a pre-existing connection to current Titans head coach Robert Saleh, who was also his head coach with the Jets. $21 million per year is a hefty payday for someone who has never tallied eight sacks in a single season, but he was reportedly the Titans' top target in free agency, and they had to beat out the San Francisco 49ers in a bidding war to get him.

The Washington Commanders have signed free-agent edge rusher Odafe Oweh to a four-year, $100 million contract that includes $68 million guaranteed, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Oweh spent his first 4.5 NFL seasons with the Baltimore Ravens before being acquired by the Los Angeles Chargers during the 2025 regular season. He appeared in 17 games last year, amassing 7.5 sacks, 18 quarterback hits, and 38 tackles. Over the last two seasons combined, he has recorded 17.5 sacks. Oweh will provide a key pass-rushing presence within a Commanders' defense that previously lacked starpower. He'll be tasked with slowing down some of the talented quarterbacks in Washington's division, including
Dak Prescott,
Jalen Hurts, and
Jaxson Dart.
