Colts | Riley Leonard, Anthony Richardson battle for backup Sun May 10, 07:10 PM

Indianapolis Colts QBs Riley Leonard and Anthony Richardson are set to battle for the primary backup job to starter QB Daniel Jones, while QB Seth Henigan is also on the roster. Offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter said it's 'still early' and 'too soon' to determine a frontrunner for the QB2 job.

Titans | Cam Ward making progress in new offense Sun May 10, 06:59 PM

Tennessee Titans QB Cam Ward is learning a second offense in his second NFL season, as offensive coordinator Brian Daboll is now working with the former No. 1 overall pick. Daboll feels Ward has made some early progress, and he has shown to be a quick study. 'He is a young professional,' Daboll said. 'He wants to be great. He is instinctive. When we are just watching the tape, he is able to communicate the things that he sees and why he did certain things when we watch the tape from last year. When we are installing the new system to him, concepts and things like that, he is able to pick things up very quickly.'

Chargers | Quentin Johnston showing growth Sun May 10, 06:40 PM

Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston has shown a lot of growth, even in the past week, according to new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. 'You'd be hard pressed to find a guy that's grown more specifically in the last week than Q,' McDaniel said. 'I think he's a guy that has some traits in his game that are similar to some very powerful, explosive, productive receivers that I've had in the past, namely like Julio (Jones) and Andre (Johnson) and so we're pushing him.'

Patriots | Eli Raridon signs rookie deal Sun May 10, 06:36 PM

New England Patriots third-round draft choice TE Eli Raridon signed a four-year contract with the Patriots Saturday, May 9. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Raridon's ceiling is as high as any tight end in this class, but he is a work in progress. We probably won't see him really approach his potential until at earliest his second season, but Raridon should be a priority third or fourth round pick in rookie drafts for tight end premium leagues. He's worth monitoring in all dynasty leagues, and also worth drafting in PPR dynasty leagues if the benches are long enough to accommodate multi-year projects.

Broncos | Bo Nix may do some offseason work Sun May 10, 06:36 PM

Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix (ankle) will probably do some throwing during the June minicamp and should be fully healthy for training camp, according to head coach Sean Payton.

Footballguys view: Nix's injury might have been worse than originally let on, but as long as he is a full go at the open of camp, we won't change the outlook for him or the Denver offense this season.

Commanders | Kaytron Allen under contract Sun May 10, 06:36 PM

Washington Commanders sixth-round draft choice RB Kaytron Allen signed a four-year contract with the Commanders Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Allen is already making noise in rookie minicamp and should have the edge to be the short yardage back and game finisher to begin the season, with a chance to lead the team in carries with the new under center running game that he is well-suited for. Allen is an excellent assignment sound runner, but he doesn't have an impressive burst or quickness.

Buccaneers | TB officially adds four UDFAs Sun May 10, 06:36 PM

Updating previous reports, undrafted free-agent QB Jalon Daniels (Kansas), TE Kenny Fletcher Jr. (Rutgers), WR Eric Rivers Jr. (Georgia Tech) and WR Noah Short (Army) officially signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Friday, May 8. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Daniels was one of Greg Cosell of NFL Films favorite quarterback prospects in this year's draft. He is a dual threat, but with a good arm and pocket presence. Daniels only has to beat out Jake Browning to back up Baker Mayfield this year.

Broncos | Bo Nix expected to be full speed in July Sun May 10, 05:36 PM

Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix (ankle) might be on the field in some capacity during minicamp from June 16-18, and head coach Sean Payton said Nix should be full speed in July.

Chargers | Working to make Justin Herbert elite Sun May 10, 05:26 PM

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert has zero playoff victories in three tries, although he is considered one of the league's top quarterbacks. New offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel wants to take Herbert to a new level. 'We're looking to master and be elite at everything that we do and being able to own the position in a new way,' McDaniel said. 'Being able for him to own the position a way he never has and ultimately, for it to be obvious to everyone around that he's playing the best football of his career.'

Saints | Jordyn Tyson gets day off at minicamp Sun May 10, 04:27 PM

New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson practice fully on Friday, May 8, but the team held him out Saturday, May 9. It was reportedly a planned day off, and not some type of new injury. He dealt with hamstring injuries since the 2025 season, and it's why he did not work out at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Ravens | GM explains decision on Keaton Mitchell Sun May 10, 04:20 PM

Los Angeles Chargers RB Keaton Mitchell was not tendered by the Baltimore Ravens because of his salary figure, as well as his lack of flexibility. 'He was gonna make over $3 million this year based on the system, which was a restricted free agency system, the tender,' general manager Eric DeCosta said. 'Again, not a real special teams guy. A talented space runner. He's not necessarily the most dynamic pass-catching back, so then it becomes, well, would you rather have (Derrick Henry) on the field or Keaton?'

Browns | Cleveland works on Taylen Green's fundamentals Sun May 10, 04:06 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Taylen Green has been working on his fundamentals as a passer with the team's coaching staff. 'Well, first thing was...footwork,' coach Todd Monken said. 'Cadence -- getting used to our cadence early on, and he was better today, but [Saturday] morning and [Friday], choppy with his cadence. So just getting our guys into a rhythm at the line of scrimmage, I think that was the second thing he needed to work on. He did a nice job today of working through his progressions. I did like that part of it. We're gonna have to be really diligent in trying to tighten down his release.'

Texans | Tank Dell continues to make progress Sun May 10, 03:19 PM

Houston Texans WR Tank Dell (knee) has been doing well in the team's offseason conditioning program, as he makes his way back from a dislocated left knee, torn anterior cruciate ligament, as well as torn medial collateral and lateral collateral ligaments. He has made a lot of progress, and he is running again and cutting in his routes, although he is not back to 100 percent.

Footballguys view: CJ Stroud's best performances came with Dell on the field, so his return can only be a good thing for the Texans quarterback. It might not be a good thing for the fantasy value of Nico Collins, as Stroud targeted Dell (when the receiver was a rookie) just about as often as he did Collins.

Texans | Nico Collins wants to finish career in Houston Sun May 10, 03:11 PM

Houston Texans WR Nico Collins said this week that he would like to spend his entire career with the organization. 'I love the Texans,' Collins said. 'I got drafted here. It's somewhere I want to end. I love the city, the people, the community. There's a lot of great positive vibes coming out of the city of Houston. So, it's definitely a place I would like to retire.' He is due $20 million fully guaranteed in 2026, and $21.25 million non-guaranteed in 2027. He is the 18th-highest paid wide receiver in terms of average compensation in 2026.

Giants | Nothing imminent with Odell Beckham Jr. Sun May 10, 02:41 PM

Free-agent WR Odell Beckham Jr. (Dolphins) remains in contact with the New York Giants, but head coach John Harbaugh said the team will 'play it out over the next month and into training camp' before making a decision on whether or not to sign the mercurial receiver. He worked out for the team, and Harbaugh said he 'looked good'.

Jets | Cade Klubnik confident despite draft slide Sun May 10, 02:36 PM

New York Jets QB Cade Klubnik (ankle, wrist) struggled with a sprained right ankle and wrist injury in his final season at Clemson, and with his play suffering, his draft stock took a nosedive. But, Klubnik remains confident heading into his rookie season. 'In my mind, I'm a winner,' Klubnik said Saturday at rookie minicamp. 'I don't mean that in a boastful way. I think that's the mentality you have to have as a quarterback, and I think that my resume has kind of showed that as well.'

Seahawks | Kenny McIntosh could toss hat into ring Sun May 10, 02:30 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB Kenny McIntosh (knee) is a speedy back who has battled knee injuries in the early part of his career, including a torn ACL suffered in training camp last summer. 'He's coming along,' head coach Mike Macdonald said last month. 'It's tough to put a timetable to it. He's training his tail off. I think it's one of those deals where, 'Hey, let's just keep hitting those benchmarks until we can evaluate what it's going to look like in the fall.''

Seahawks | No timeline for Zach Charbonnet's return Sun May 10, 02:23 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) continues to recover from surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee suffered during the Divisional Round of the playoffs. He is expected to return at some point this season, but head coach Mike Macdonald doesn't know exactly when Charbonnet will be back. 'I can't give you a timeline right now, but I can tell you he's killing it as we knew he would,' coach Mike Macdonald said during the draft. 'With these long-term injuries -- I say it all the time, you've just got to stack these things. You have to be able to get to the next thing and go rip it, and that's what he's doing. I'm excited for Zach.'

Footballguys view: The Seahawks can afford to be conservative with Charbonnet's return after taking Jadarian Price at the end of the first round of the draft. He isn't worth taking in typical leagues because his ceiling even when he returns isn't very high.

Seahawks | Emanuel Wilson could have early role Sun May 10, 01:43 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB Emanuel Wilson is a bigger back at 5-foot-10 and 226 pounds, who gives the team a power runner while RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) is on the shelf recovering from ACL surgery in February. Despite the absence of Charbonnet, likely until later in the regular season, Wilson still has to contend with top healthy holdover RB George Holani and rookie draft pick RB Jadarian Price for the top spot on the depth chart.

Footballguys view: If Price isn't ready for prime time - he was a back up in college because he played with Jeremiyah Love - then Wilson will be the primary early down and goal line back for the Seahawks. He's worth a late round pick in best ball leagues and an end of the bench spot in deep dynasty leagues.

Seahawks | George Holani to see third-down work? Sun May 10, 01:34 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB George Holani is the lone healthy holdover in the backfield, and his work catching the ball and working in pass protection makes him a strong candidate for third-down work, even when RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) is ready to return. Holani is battling free-agent addition RB Emanuel Wilson and draft pick RB Jadarian Price for a more meaningful role until Charbonnet can get back.

Footballguys view: Holani doesn't have standalone value in fantasy leagues, but he could lower Jadarian Price's ceiling if he proves to be a capable third down back. If injuries thin the backfield, he could have spot start fantasy value during the season.

Seahawks | Jadarian Price has plenty of competition Sun May 10, 01:29 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price is viewed as a replacement for RB Kenneth Walker III (Chiefs), but he isn't the clear-cut RB1 with RBs Emanuel Wilson and George Holani in the mix, and RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) expected back at some point. The team isn't asking Price to go from RB2 in college to a high-volume starter in the NFL. He averaged roughly 18.5 snaps and nearly nine touches per game over the past two seasons at Notre Dame, and he also returned kickoffs, so he could be used in that role, even with the presence of WR Rashid Shaheed.

Footballguys view: The Seahawks aren't going away from a committee backfield, but that doesn't mean that Price isn't worth a top five selection in dynasty rookie drafts. If he gets goal line work and leads the team in carries, that should be more than enough to be a fantasy RB2, with room to grow in the future because Zach Charbonnet is a free agent in 2027.

Undrafted free-agent QB Jeff Sims (Arizona State) has been signed by the New York Giants. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Undrafted free-agent RB Kevorian Barnes (TCU) has been signed by the New York Giants. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Buccaneers | Javin Wright signs with Tampa Bay Sat May 9, 08:55 PM

Nebraska LB Javin Wright signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday, May 9. In a corresponding move, the Bucs waived RB Michael Wiley.

Broncos | Bo Nix expected to be on the field in June Sat May 9, 08:05 PM

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton told reporters there is 'a good chance' QB Bo Nix (ankle) will be on the field in June.

Commanders | Antonio Williams inks deal Sat May 9, 03:46 PM

Washington Commanders third-round draft choice WR Antonio Williams signed a four-year contract with the Commanders Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Washington Commanders seventh-round draft choice QB Athan Kaliakmanis signed a four-year contract with the Commanders Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Jets | Six UDFAs officially signed Sat May 9, 03:25 PM

Updating previous reports, undrafted free-agent WR Caullin Lacy (Louisville), RB Sam Scott (Wyoming), WR Malik McClain (Arizona State), RB Chip Trayanum (Toledo), TE Chase Curtis (TCU) and WR DT Sheffield (Rutgers) officially signed with the New York Jets Friday, May 8. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Saints | New Orleans signs Oscar Delp Sat May 9, 02:42 PM

New Orleans Saints third-round draft choice TE Oscar Delp signed a four-year contract with the Saints Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Delp is a classic "could be a better pro than college player" prospect. Georgia didn't use him often as a receiver, but when they did, the speed, athleticism, and ball skills of a weapon in the passing game were apparent. The Saints used three picks in the first four rounds to add players who can do damage downfield for Tyler Shough and Kellen Moore.

Saints | Bryce Lance signs deal Sat May 9, 02:39 PM

New Orleans Saints fourth-round draft choice WR Bryce Lance signed a four-year contract with the Saints Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Trey Lance's little brother has the long frame and speed to be a Marquez Valdes-Scantling-esque deep threat if he can adjust to the NFL level of play from North Dakota State. He could also have a larger role if #8 overall pick Jordyn Tyson's durability issues carry over to the pros.

Saints | Barion Brown signed Sat May 9, 02:38 PM

New Orleans Saints sixth-round draft choice WR Barion Brown signed a four-year contract with the Saints Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Vikings | Demond Claiborne under contract Sat May 9, 02:27 PM

Minnesota Vikings sixth-round draft choice RB Demond Claiborne signed a four-year contract with the Vikings Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Claiborne is a compact, shifty back with speed who is comparable to Devonta Freeman. The Vikings top two backs will be free agents next year, and Aaron Jones has missed at least five games in two of the last three seasons. Expect Claiborne to get a chance to show what he can do at some point this season, which could secure him a role in the Vikings backfield going forward.

Saints | Jordyn Tyson held out Sat May 9, 02:07 PM

New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) did not participate in practice Saturday, May 9, but head coach Kellen Moore said the team planned to hold Tyson out.

Footballguys view: This is a non-story, except that it is a reminder that Tyson's durability is already on the Saints mind before he has even taken a snap in practice.

Dolphins | Four undrafted players officially signed Sat May 9, 02:05 PM

Updating previous reports, undrafted free-agent QB Mark Gronowski (Iowa), RB Anthony Hankerson (Oregon State), WR Donaven McCulley (Michigan) and RB Le'Veon Moss (Texas A&M) officially signed with the Miami Dolphins Friday, May 8. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Moss is a power back and the only true pile pusher on the Dolphins roster. We'll see if he can overtake 2025 sixth round pick Ollie Gordon, who didn't make much of an impact when he got on the field as a rookie.

Texans | Houston officially adds five UDFAs Sat May 9, 01:48 PM

Updating previous reports, undrafted free-agent RB Josh Pitsenberger (Yale), WR Treyvhon Saunders (Colgate), WR Daniel Sobkowicz (Illinois State), WR Jalen Walthall (Incarnate Word) and RB Noah Whittington (Oregon) officially signed with the Houston Texans Friday, May 8. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Bengals | Four UDFAs officially signed Sat May 9, 01:43 PM

Updating previous reports, undrafted free-agent RB Kentrel Bullock (South Alabama), RB Jamal Haynes (Georgia Tech), TE Josh Kattus (Kentucky) and WR Noah Thomas (Georgia) signed with the Cincinnati Bengals Friday, May 8. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Haynes is a fire hydrant with quickness and speed who could unseat 2025 sixth round pick Tahj Brooks as the third string back. Brooks failed to impress last year, so his roster spot is vulnerable.

Browns | Jalen Reagor trying out Sat May 9, 01:38 PM

Buccaneers | Michael Wiley let go Sat May 9, 01:15 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Michael Wiley was waived Saturday, May 9.

Titans | Carnell Tate agrees to terms Sat May 9, 01:10 PM

Tennessee Titans WR Carnell Tate has agreed to terms on a four-year, $51.1 million deal, which includes a $33,649,028 million signing bonus on Friday, May 8.

Footballguys view: Tate should be a starter very early in his career and could turn into a true #1 for Cam Ward, which would make this contract one of the biggest bargains of the 2026 draft. We'll be monitoring to see if he can get on the field with Calvin Ridley and the starting 11 on offense in Week 1.

Bengals | Colbie Young signs rookie deal Sat May 9, 01:10 PM

Cincinnati Bengals fourth-round draft choice WR Colbie Young signed a four-year contract with the Bengals Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Young's game is reminiscent of former Bengal Auden Tate, who played with Joe Burrow early in the quarterback's pro career. If Andrei Iosivas leaves in free agency next year, Young's huge catch radius and ball skills make him a good candidate to back up Tee Higgins, who has missed at least two games in each of the last three seasons.

Browns | Four-year deal for Taylen Green Sat May 9, 01:10 PM

Cleveland Browns sixth-round draft choice QB Taylen Green signed a four-year contract with the Browns Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Green is raw as a pocket quarterback, but his size, athleticism, and arm talent give him a high ceiling even though it is on a very small chance to hit. At least he is in an organization where he could get a chance to play soon if he shows promise, given the team's lack of a long-term answer at quarterback. Green could also move to wide receiver if he busts as a quarterback. He has a similar size/speed profile to Terrelle Pryor, who once upon a time had a 1000 yard season for Cleveland as a wide receiver after coming into the league as a quarterback for the Raiders.

Browns | Cleveland signs Denzel Boston Sat May 9, 01:10 PM

Cleveland Browns second-round draft choice WR Denzel Boston signed a four-year contract with the Browns Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Boston has the inside track to become the Browns starting "X" receiver early on in his rookie deal. He's a great ball winner on contested catches, but his straight line speed and play strength will be average at best in the NFL and limit his fantasy impact, in addition to the team's issues at quarterback and on offense in general.

Bears | Zavion Thomas signs rookie deal Sat May 9, 01:10 PM

Chicago Bears third round draft choice WR Zavion Thomas signed a four-year contract with the Bears Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Thomas wasn't as highly regarded by draft analysts as he was by Ben Johnson and the Bears. That makes him intriguing in dynasty rookie drafts, along with the possibility that Thomas gets some reps at running back, where he looked natural in limited duty at LSU.

49ers | Four-year deal for Kaelon Black Sat May 9, 01:10 PM

San Francisco 49ers third-round draft choice RB Kaelon Black signed a four-year contract with the 49ers Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Kyle Shanahan can never have enough running backs, apparently. Black is a try hard runner who is not the most athletically gifted, but will be a dependable assignment-sound back. We'll be monitoring 49ers news to learn whether Black, 2025 fifth round pick Jordan James, or 2024 fourth round pick Isaac Guerendo is the first in line for touches if Christian McCaffrey misses time.
