| 3/29/2026 5:00:00 PM | Browns GM Andrew said Sunday at the NFL's league meetings that he's hopeful Judkins (ankle) will be on the field "in some form or fashion" this spring, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. |
| Judkins underwent successful surgery to address a dislocated right ankle in late December, and he's expected to be active for training camp in late July or early August. Berry's comment reaffirms this expectation for the 2025 second-round pick, who accrued 827 yards on 230 carries over 14 regular-season games last year. As one of the teams that hired a new head coach after the 2025 regular season, the Browns are eligible to begin offseason workouts April 6. Judkins is in line to be the lead rusher in a room that currently includes fellow second-year backs Dylan Sampson, Raheim Sanders and Ahmani Marshall. | |
| 2/13/2026 7:09:00 PM | Pace ended the 2025 regular season with 62 tackles (34 solo), including 1.0 sacks, over 17 games. |
| Pace started the season with a high defensive snap share due to the absence of Blake Cashman, who suffered a hamstring injury in Week 1. As the season continued, Pace saw diminished defensive snaps. The 25-year-old will enter the 2026 offseason as a restricted free agent, meaning the Vikings will have an opportunity to match any offer Pace might receive. | |

| 2/12/2026 2:15:00 PM | Thompson was unable to take the field during the 2025 season due to a hamstring injury. |
| The 2022 seventh-round pick from Kansas State was placed on Pittsburgh's injured reserve list in early September due to a hamstring issue and didn't return this season. After signing a one-year, $1.1 million deal with the Steelers last season, Thompson is set to enter unrestricted free agency. He could draw interest from teams seeking quarterback depth ahead of the 2026 campaign. | |
| 2/11/2026 7:16:00 PM | Boutte caught 33 of 46 targets for 551 yards and six touchdowns over 14 games during the 2025 regular season. |
| Boutte saw a slight dip in receiving yards while reeling in 10 fewer passes in his third campaign with New England, but his six scores were double his combined total from his first two years in the league. The wide receiver became a go-to option for second-year quarterback Drake Maye on the deep ball, as his 16.7 yards per reception ranked fifth in the NFL during the regular season. Additionally, Boutte caught nine of 20 targets for a team-high 168 receiving yards, including a 32-yard touchdown, over the Patriots' four postseason contests. | |

| 2/8/2026 1:18:00 PM | Franklin (hamstring) ended the 2025 regular season with 65 receptions (on 104 targets) for 709 yards and six touchdowns, adding five rushes for 12 yards across 17 games. He also lost one fumble. |
| Franklin became a much bigger part of the Broncos offense in his second season, and his continued development and existing chemistry with quarterback Bo Nix led to more usage in Denver's passing attack in 2025. Before suffering a hamstring injury in the divisional-round win over the Bills this postseason, the 23-year-old wideout was one of Nix's most reliable targets behind No. 1 receiver Courtland Sutton. Of all Broncos pass catchers, Franklin finished second behind Sutton in catches, targets, receiving yards and touchdowns. The Oregon product finished third on the team with 282 yards after contact, behind running back RJ Harvey (360) and tight end Evan Engram (302). Under contract through the 2027 season, Franklin should remain a key piece of an improving Broncos offense for the foreseeable future. | |
| 2/2/2026 5:33:00 PM | Baker accrued 120 tackles, including 0.5 sack, five pass defenses (one interception) and one fumble recovery in 16 regular-season games in 2025. |
| After posting a career-high 164 tackles during the 2024 campaign, Baker was a bit more muted in box scores this season, but he still finished with triple-digit stops for the sixth time in his nine-year career and was one of five defensive backs league wide to reach 120. He also picked off a pass for the first time since 2022. The 30-year-old has two years remaining on his current contract, so he should remain a top-tier IDP option this coming season. | |
| 1/12/2026 7:10:00 PM | Howard (coach's decision) is inactive and will serve as Pittsburgh's emergency third quarterback for Monday's AFC wild-card game versus Houston, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports. |
| This is a familiar role for Howard, as he's been Pittsburgh's emergency QB every week since coming off IR in mid-November. Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph will continue to serve as the Steelers' QB1 and QB2, respectively, while Howard will be eligible to enter Monday's game only if both quarterbacks ahead of him have to exit due to injury, illness or ejection. | |
| 1/12/2026 10:51:00 AM | Winfield registered 93 tackles (53 solo), including 1.0 sacks, eight defensed passes, including two interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery across 17 games during the 2025 season. |
| It was another season of across-the-board IDP production for the veteran safety, who tied the second-highest snap count of his career (1,034) and got back on the board in the interception column after going without a pick for the first time in his career during an injury-shortened 2024 campaign. Winfield's tackle total was the third highest of his career, while his eight pass breakups were second only to the 12 he compiled in the other 17-game season of his NFL tenure to date, the 2023 season. Winfield will once again slot into the starting strong safety role in 2026 as one of the leaders of a talented Buccaneers defense. | |
| 1/12/2026 10:47:00 AM | Laulu recorded 51 total tackles (24 solo), including 4.0 sacks, four additional tackles for loss and five passes defensed while appearing in all 17 games for the Raiders in 2025. |
| Laulu saw his defensive snap share jump from 43 percent as a rookie in 2024 to 68 percent this past season, and he managed to produce eight tackles for loss with the increased playing time. The seventh-round pick out of Oklahoma has two years remaining on his current contract with the Raiders. | |
| 1/11/2026 8:27:00 PM | Barkley rushed 26 times for 106 yards and caught three of six targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 23-19 wild-card game loss to the 49ers. |
| Barkley ripped off a 29-yard run on Philadelphia's second offensive play to help set up a one-yard Dallas Goedert rushing touchdown on the team's first drive, and the star running back topped 100 yards on the ground after doing so in only three of 16 regular-season games. Despite Barkley's best efforts, he suffered his first playoff loss in an Eagles uniform after winning Super Bowl LIX in his first season with the team. Barkley remains one of the league's best running backs and should maintain a workhorse role for the Eagles in his age-29 season. | |
| 1/9/2026 4:54:00 PM | Rudolph completed 38 of 52 passes for 310 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing seven times for six yards over five appearances during the 2025 regular season. |
| The bulk of Rudolph's playing time during the regular season came in the middle of the year, as he entered the team's Week 11 matchup against Cincinnati in relief after Aaron Rodgers got hurt before starting against the Bears in Week 12. Rudolph will remain under contract with the Steelers for the 2026 campaign, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the team bring in other options at quarterback if Aaron Rodgers retires during the offseason. | |
| 1/8/2026 3:54:00 PM | Verse recorded 58 tackles (35 solo), including 7.5 sacks, a pass defensed and three forced fumbles over 17 games in 2025. |
| The second verse was nearly identical to the first for the 2024 first-round pick for the Rams, as his tackles decreased by six year-to-year, but he recorded three more sacks and one more forced fumble while operating as a dominant duo alongside Byron Young. Verse's play was rewarded with a selection as a 2026 NFL Pro Bowler alongside Young, and Verse should continue his ascension towards being one of the top linebackers in the NFL in year three with the Rams. | |
| 1/6/2026 11:24:00 PM | Winston completed 37 of 66 pass attempts for 567 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions over three games during the 2025-26 regular season. He added seven rushes for 23 yards and a touchdown. |
| Winston signed with New York in March, but the team then inked Russell Wilson a few days later and drafted Jaxson Dart in April's NFL Draft, reducing the significance of Winston's signing considerably. The veteran QB did end up making a pair of starts after Wilson was demoted and Dart was sidelined by a concussion, but Winston didn't do much to impress as a passer in those opportunities, and he completed the campaign in a backup role. Winston's contract was a two-year deal, so he could return as Dart's backup next season. | |
| 1/6/2026 6:06:00 PM | Butker went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts during Sunday's 14-12 loss against the Raiders. |
| Butker boasted a healthy 87 percent conversion rate (33-for-38) on field goals in 2025, continuing a stretch of converting 84-plus percent in every season but one since joining the NFL back in 2017. He did struggle a bit more than usual on extra-point attempts, knocking home 31 of his 35 tries, but he was solid overall once again. Despite some issues offensively for the Chiefs this season, Butker's field-goal attempts matched the second-most of his career in 2019, likely due to the fact that there were just 35 extra-point attempts with fewer touchdowns scored. Butker remains under contract with the Chiefs for two more seasons and seems likely to retain his duties as Kansas City's placekicker in 2026. | |
| 1/6/2026 5:56:00 PM | Dallas signed Abanikanda to a reserve/future contract Tuesday. |
| Abanikanda signed with the Cowboys' practice squad in November after he spent training camp and the preseason with Green Bay. A fifth-round pick by the Jets in 2023, Abanikanda hasn't appeared in a regular-season game since that rookie season. | |
| 1/6/2026 11:12:00 AM | Borregales converted one of two field-goal attempts and all five of his extra-point tries during New England's 38-10 win over the Dolphins in Sunday's regular-season finale. |
| Borregales wraps the regular season of his rookie campaign having suited up for all 17 games, and converting 27 of 32 field-goal attempts (84 percent) and 53 of 55 extra-point tries. Impressively, Borregales has converted all four of his attempts from 50-plus yards out so far. He'll look to remain steady as the Patriots enter the AFC Playoffs, beginning with Sunday's wild-card round matchup against the Chargers. | |
| 1/4/2026 5:09:00 PM | Dart completed 22 of 32 passes for 230 yards and two touchdowns while rushing five times for 32 yards in Sunday's 34-17 win over the Cowboys. He finishes his rookie season with 2,272 passing yards and a 15:5 TD:INT, as well as 487 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns in 14 games (12 starts). |
| Dart showed plenty of promise in his rookie campaign, thriving as a runner and making many impressive throws despite working with an injury-riddled supporting cast. He threw touchdown passes of 29 yards to Daniel Bellinger and 13 yards to Tyrone Tracy as the Giants notched their fourth and final win of the 2025 regular season. The Giants will have an early pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, but they are unlikely to draft a quarterback, so Dart's expected to head into his sophomore season as the team's starter under center. | |
