| 3/9/2025 7:05:00 PM | Sherwood and the Jets agreed on a three-year, $45 million contract with $30 million fully guaranteed Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. |
| Sherwood will stick around New York after spending the first four years of his career with the Jets, most recently compiling a career-high 158 total tackles (98 solo), including 2.0 sacks, over 17 regular-season games in 2024. With fellow middle linebacker C.J. Mosley (neck) expected to return in 2025 after missing 13 games in 2024, Sherwood may see a dip in production following his impressive year. | |
| 3/6/2025 10:08:00 AM | Teams have contacted the Bengals about trading for Higgins but have been told he isn't available, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports. |
| A franchise tag can pave the way for a trade, but in this case it seems more likely to lead to a multi-year contract. The Bengals may end up rethinking their stance, however, if negotiations don't progress within the next few weeks and there's serious risk of no long-term agreement being reached before the July 15 deadline. Higgins might hesitate to sign his franchise tag (worth $26.17 million) if that were to happen, having already played under the tag once, although he'd likely still sign it before Week 1 rather than miss out on around $1.5 million each week. The Bengals hope it won't come to that and presumably have already begun negotiations for a multi-year contract. | |
| 3/5/2025 6:06:00 PM | Chubb (knee) agreed to a restructured contract with the Dolphins on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. |
| Per Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports, Chubb's contract will be revised to reduce his base salary, but the veteran pass rusher will still have the opportunity to earn his full $21 compensation through playing time and sack incentives. Chubb missed the entire 2024 season while recovering from surgery for a torn ACL, meniscus and patellar tendon injury that he suffered in December 2023, but he is expected to be fully healthy for the start of the 2025 campaign. | |
| 2/28/2025 1:35:00 PM | Stafford and the Rams agreed to terms Friday on a restructured contract that will keep him in Los Angeles and eliminate any possibilities of a trade this offseason, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. |
| Interest in Stafford as a potential trade acquisition appeared to have been building significant momentum during the week of the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, with the Giants and Raiders headlining the list of suitors, but the veteran signal-caller has ultimately agreed to stick with the Rams and head coach Sean McVay, as confirmed by the team's official social media accounts. Further details regarding Stafford's restructured contract should arrive in short order, but it seems probable both sides agreed to a mutually beneficial short-term, potentially front-loaded deal. The 37-year-old's continued tenure in Los Angeles is a positive development for the fantasy stock of both Puka Nacua and Kyren Williams, as it preserves key continuity in McVay's offensive scheme, though Cooper Kupp seemingly remains on the trade block. | |
| 2/17/2025 1:48:00 PM | McPherson (groin) converted 16 of 22 field-goal attempts across 12 regular-season appearances with the Bengals in 2024. He also went 37-for-38 on PATs. |
| McPherson ended his campaign with a career-low 73 percent conversion rate on field goals before landing on IR with a groin injury in early December, with all four of his misses coming from 50-plus yards out. He inked a three-year, $16.5 million extension with Cincinnati last August, meaning McPherson remains under contract through the 2027 campaign. | |

| 2/6/2025 2:23:00 PM | Ekeler finished the 2024 regular season with 77 carries for 367 yards and four touchdowns and 35 catches for 366 yards in 12 games, adding 34 touches for 173 yards in three playoff appearances. |
| Ekeler mostly played well in the first season of a two-year contract, but he suffered a pair of concussions along the way and then lost a fumble in the NFC Championship Game. His future in Washington is uncertain, as the team can add $3.46 million in cap space by releasing Ekeler this offseason. Regardless of how things play out with the Commanders, his days as a top fantasy asset appear numbered, with Ekeler now trying to continue his career as a backup/passing-down specialist. He'll turn 30 in May. | |
| 1/31/2025 2:57:00 PM | Garoppolo completed 24 of 41 passes for 334 yards, two touchdowns and an interception during the 2024 regular season, adding two rushing attempts for five yards. |
| In his lone appearance of the season Week 18, Garoppolo showcased his abilities to potential suitors and performed well, completing touchdown passes to Tyler Higbee and Tyler Johnson with mostly backups on the field for the Rams. Head coach Sean McVay may be inclined to bring the 31-year-old Garoppolo, an unrestricted free agent, back for another round as the primary backup to Matthew Stafford if the price is right, as third-stringer Stetson Bennett has yet to take a snap in a regular-season game and had a miserable preseason with five interceptions and a lost fumble over two starts. | |
| 1/25/2025 9:51:00 PM | Al-Shaair (knee) finished the 2024 season with 70 tackles (45 solo), including 2.0 sacks, four pass breakups and two forced fumbles across 11 regular-season games. |
| Al-Shaair missed three games with a knee injury and was then suspended later in the year after a helmet-to-helmet hit concussed Trevor Lawrence in Week 15. Al-Shaair returned for Week 18 and started both playoff contests but again dealt with knee issues to close out the campaign. After recording double-digit tackles eight times in 2023 with the Titans, Al-Shaair did it just twice this past season in Houston, with none coming after Week 3. The veteran linebacker has two years left on a three-year, $34 million deal. | |
| 1/20/2025 8:02:00 PM | Queen finished the 2024 season with 129 tackles (65 solo), including 1.0 sacks, seven pass breakups, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery across 17 regular-season games with Pittsburgh. |
| After spending the first four seasons of his career with Baltimore, Queen signed a three-year, $41 million deal with the division-rival Steelers last offseason and went on to start all 17 regular-season contests. Queen has yet to miss a game or a start since entering the NFL in 2020, a streak that has spanned 84 contests. Queen's 129 tackles marked the second-highest single-season total of his career. Queen is signed through the 2026 campaign. | |
| 1/20/2025 3:43:00 PM | Robinson secured three of seven targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 28-22 NFC divisional-round loss to the Eagles. |
| The veteran wideout was able to make a huge play in the first quarter, ripping a deep ball from Matthew Stafford out of the hands of cornerback Isaiah Rodgers for a 48-yard gain that led to a Joshua Karty field goal. It was a tale of two halves of the season for Robinson, as the majority of his career-high 505 receiving yards (on just 31 catches) came between Weeks 1 and 9. A second-half swoon saw four consecutive games where he was held without a catch, a troubling trend for Robinson, who enters the offseason as an unrestricted free agent. | |
| 1/19/2025 10:03:00 AM | Fairbairn converted two of four field-goal attempts and missed his lone extra-point try in Saturday's 23-14 divisional-round playoff loss to Kansas City. |
| Fairbairn missed badly on a 55-yard field-goal attempt, which appeared to have been impacted by the winds blowing through Kansas City. He also had an attempt blocked and shanked an extra-point try. During the regular season, Fairbairn connected at an 86-percent rate (36 of 42) on field goals, 94-percent (34 of 36) on extra points, and was tied for fifth among kickers with 142 points. The 30-year-old is normally a reliable kicker, and none of Saturday's miscues should impact his status in 2025, the second year of a three-year extension signed in March 2024. | |
| 1/18/2025 8:01:00 PM | Stroud completed 19 of 28 passes for 245 yards without a touchdown or an interception in Saturday's 23-14 divisional-round loss to Kansas City. He added 42 rushing yards on six carries. |
| The story of the game was the Texans' inability to protect Stroud. The second-year QB was brought down eight times, three times by George Karlaftis alone, and Stroud needed help getting off the field after the last sack late in the fourth quarter while apparently dealing with a foot or ankle injury. He did return for the final play however, a kneel-down with seven seconds left, so Stroud would seem to be OK. His overall body of work took a step back from his rookie campaign, and Stroud completed 63.2 percent of his passes for 3,727 yards and a 20:12 TD:INT over 17 regular-season games while also being sacked 52 times -- 14 more than in 2023. Injuries to his wide receiver corps played a role in Stroud's regression, but expect Houston to focus on upgrading his protection this offseason as well. | |
| 1/18/2025 3:59:00 PM | Bates recorded 102 tackles, including 1.0 sacks, along with 10 pass defenses (including four interceptions, one of which was a pick-six), four forced fumbles and a fumble recovery over 17 regular-season games. |
| Bates wasn't able to approach the career-high 132 stops he made in 2023, but he was still prolific as a tackler, notching his fifth career season with triple-digit stops. He also had two fewer interceptions than in the previous campaign, though he had twice as many pickoffs than anyone else on the Falcons and tied for 10th in the NFL in that category. For good measure, Bates recorded his second career pick-sick in Week 16 against the Giants and tied for fifth in the NFL with a career-best four forced fumbles. He's slated to be the centerpiece of Atlanta's secondary -- and an elite IDP option -- again in 2025, when he'll be in the third year of the four-year contract he inked in March of 2023. | |
| 1/13/2025 4:04:00 PM | Reed said Monday that he won't need surgery on his dislocated shoulder, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. |
| He missed the end of Sunday's playoff loss to the Eagles but should be ready for OTAs in the spring. It was a disappointing end to a disappointing season in which 72.3 percent of Reed's receiving yards came in the first nine games. He appeared well on his way to a 1,000-yard campaign for much of the season, before averaging 29.6 receiving yards and 3.6 targets after a Week 10 bye, ultimately finishing with a 55-857-6 receiving line and 20-163-1 on the ground. Reed offers an unusual combination of rushing contributions and big receiving plays from the slot, but it's hard to say if/when he'll progress beyond boom/bust-WR3 status for fantasy. | |
| 1/12/2025 9:02:00 PM | Jacobs rushed the ball 18 times for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Eagles. He added three receptions on three targets for 40 yards. |
| Jacobs was the driving force behind Green Bay's comeback attempt in the second half, with the highlight being an impressive 32-yard touchdown run at the close of the third quarter. He also chipped in long receptions of 15 and 14 yards to close his campaign on a strong note. After posting a career-best 16 touchdowns while tallying 1,671 yards from scrimmage during the regular season, Jacobs will almost certainly be back to lead the backfield for the Packers in 2025. | |
| 1/12/2025 5:53:00 PM | Sutton caught five of nine targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 31-7 wild-card round loss to the Bills. |
| The veteran wideout led the Broncos in catches, targets and receiving yards, although it was Troy Franklin who was on the other end of rookie QB Bo Nix's only TD pass Sunday. Sutton put together arguably the best campaign of his career in 2024, hauling in a career-high 81 passes for 1,081 yards and a career-high eight touchdowns over 17 regular-season contests, and his per-game averages soared in the second half of the year (60-804-6 over his last 10 games) once he developed stronger chemistry with Nix. Sutton is under contract for one more year, and assuming he returns to Denver in 2025, his big finish will put him in high demand at the fantasy draft table. | |
| 1/10/2025 3:32:00 PM | Walker made a career-high 61 tackles (31 solo), including 10.5 sacks, across 17 regular-season games with the Jaguars in 2024. He also had one defensive touchdown, one pass defensed, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. |
| Walker modestly improved upon his production totals from 2023, and he's now put together back-to-back seasons with double-digit sacks. The 2022 first-round pick is now heading into the final year of his rookie deal with Jacksonville, but the team can still decide to pick up his fifth-year option. | |
| 1/8/2025 5:18:00 PM | Clowney recorded 46 total tackles, including 5.5 sacks, and four passes defended over 14 games in 2024. |
| The 2014 first-round pick from South Carolina signed a two-year, $20 million deal with the Panthers this past offseason after tying his career high in sacks (9.5) in 2023 with the Ravens. Clowney was brought in to help bolster a struggling Panthers pass rush that ranked dead last in the NFL in sacks (27.0) in 2023, but his first season in Carolina did not go as planned. The 31-year-old posted his lowest sack total of any season in which he appeared in 14 or more games, while the Panthers' defense once again ranked among the NFL's bottom-four teams in sacks (32.0). Clowney is expected to benefit from the return of fellow edge rusher D.J. Wonnum, who missed nine games in 2024, potentially making his job a bit easier heading into the 2025 season. | |
| 1/7/2025 9:07:00 PM | Kendricks finished the 2024 regular season with 138 tackles (71 solo), including 3.0 sacks, three pass defenses (including two interceptions), three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery across 15 games. |
| After being released by the Chargers on March 5, Kendricks opted to sign a one-year, $3 million contract with the Cowboys on March 13. His 138 combined tackles were his most since 2021 with the Vikings (143), and he led the Cowboys in that category while finishing tied with Ernest Jones for 13th most in the NFL. Kendricks played every single defensive snap in 10 of 15 games and tallied double-digit tackles in six contests. The 2015 second-round pick will enter the 2025 offseason as a free agent and should get interest from teams looking for veteran help in its linebacker corps. Dallas could be interested in a reunion with Kendricks, as second-year linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is expected to miss most of the 2025 season after undergoing surgery to repair a torn ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee that he suffered in Week 14 against the Bengals. | |
| 1/7/2025 9:33:00 AM | Mills completed 12 of 22 passes for 128 yards and rushed three times for 11 yards in Sunday's 23-14 win over the Titans in Week 18. |
| After starting quarterback C.J. Stroud engineered the opening possession, which resulted in a touchdown, the reins were handed to Mills for the rest of the game. He made appearances in three blowouts during the season before guiding the Texans through most of the regular-season finale. Mills completed 20 of 36 passes for 212 yards over his four games played in 2024. Stroud wasn't as consistent in 2024 as during his rookie 2023 season, but it never go to the point where a quarterback change became necessary. The Texans are happy to keep Mills, who has two years of experience under the current coaching regime, as the backup heading into next season. | |
| 1/5/2025 10:38:00 PM | Wilson caught four of five targets for 51 yards and rushed once for no gain in Sunday's 32-20 win over the Dolphins. He finishes the 2024 season with 101 catches for 1,104 receiving yards and seven touchdowns on 154 targets. |
| Wilson didn't account for any of Aaron Rodgers' four touchdown passes, but the third of their four connections accounted for Wilson's 100th catch of the season. In addition to setting a new career high in receptions, Wilson exceeded his previous career high by one receiving yard. Wilson's seven receiving scores matched his combined total from 2022 and 2023, so Wilson made incremental improvements despite the Jets' inconsistency on offense. The 2022 first-round draft pick remains under contract with the Jets for 2025. | |
| 1/5/2025 10:30:00 PM | Mattison rushed the ball six times for 20 yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Chargers. He added four receptions on five targets for 11 yards. |
| Mattison served as the clear lead back for Las Vegas with Ameer Abdullah (foot) sidelined, though he had only one rushing attempt after halftime despite the Raiders being down one score until late in the contest. The story of this game also encapsulated Mattison's campaign, as he averaged a miserable 3.2 yards per carry in one of the least explosive offenses in the league. He'll hit free agency this offseason and will likely sign a short-term deal with the hopes of serving as a change-of-pace back. | |
| 1/5/2025 8:00:00 PM | Allen brought in all three targets for 25 yards in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday. He also threw incomplete on one pass attempt. |
| The veteran wideout nearly threw an interception on a trick play and finished a distant second in receiving yards for the Bears on the afternoon. Allen followed up a highly productive (15-223-2) two-game stretch in Week 15-16 with a modest eight receptions for 50 yards over the last pair of contests of his first Bears season, but he figures to once again serve as a critical target for Caleb Williams under a new offensive system in 2025. | |
| 1/5/2025 5:21:00 PM | Robinson rushed 28 times for 170 yards and two touchdowns and brought in two of five targets for three yards in the Falcons' 44-38 overtime loss to the Panthers on Sunday. |
| Robinson saved his best for last in terms of the 2024 season, recording a new career high in rushing yards while also scoring a pair of rushing touchdowns for the third consecutive game on runs of three and four yards. Robinson continuously ripped off chunk gains against the Panthers' league-worst run defense, and he'll finish the 2024 campaign with five 100-yard efforts -- all which came from Week 7 on -- and at least 90 rushing yards in six straight contests. | |
| 1/5/2025 12:51:00 PM | York made all four of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try during the Bengals' 19-17 win over the Steelers on Saturday. |
| York missed three kicks over his last three games heading into the Bengals' regular-season finale, but the third-year kicker was flawless in a must-win game. The team's offense went 1-for-4 on red zone drives, which put York in a position to convert on easier kicks, with three of his four field-goal attempts coming from within 40 yards. He served as Cincinnati's placekicker for the final five games of the regular season due to Evan McPherson (groin) going on IR. Over that span, York went 9-for-11 on field-goal attempts and 14-for-15 on extra-point tries. It's unclear whether York or McPherson would handle kicking duties in the wild-card round if the Bengals make the playoffs with a Broncos' loss and a Dolphins' loss or tie. | |
