Cardinals | Carson Beck's experience a plus Wed Apr 29, 09:17 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Carson Beck's experience in 'big-game environments' was one of the reasons the Cardinals drafted him, according to general manager Monti Ossenfort. 'I think when you see a player who has had big-game experience, when you make this transition to the NFL, there's more hope that it's not going to be too big for them, right?' Ossenfort said.

Dolphins | Chris Bell could start on reserve list Wed Apr 29, 04:44 PM
Miami Dolphins WR Chris Bell (knee) is a candidate to start the 2026 season on either the Reserve/Injured list or the Physically Unable to Perform list, in the opinion of DolphinsWire's Jason Sarney.
| Footballguys view: Bell tore his ACL in late November last year. Before the injury, he was projected by some to be a first-round pick. Because of his injury, 17 receivers were taken ahead of him. As SBNation reported, Bell plans to use that as motivation. "[The injury] had me frustrated [during the draft], just knowing that I was better than some of the guys that went off the board [ahead of me]," he said. Bell is just four and a half months out of surgery right now. It might not be this year, but he could have a high ceiling once healthy. |

Lions | James Proche worked out Wed Apr 29, 03:19 PM
Free-agent WR James Proche (Titans) worked out for the Detroit Lions Tuesday, April 28, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Now that the NFL Draft has concluded, the Lions' personnel department is continuing their search for talent. On Tuesday, it was veteran receiver Scotty Miller. Today, Proche, 29, a sixth-round draft pick back in 2020, gets a look. After spending three seasons in Baltimore, he was cut following the 2023 preseason. He had a stint with the Cleveland Browns (2023-2024) prior to spending the 2025 season with the Tennessee Titans. |

Bears | Scotty Miller to work out Wed Apr 29, 02:14 PM
Free-agent WR Scotty Miller (Steelers) is scheduled to work out for the Chicago Bears next week.
| Footballguys view: Miller is known for good speed but has had more than 11 receptions in a season only once since his lone big year, a 33-catch second season with Tom Brady at quarterback for the Super Bowl champion Buccaneers in 2020. Miller, who visited Detroit on Tuesday, has been at the bottom of three teams' rosters or on the practice squad, and there are several backup receivers already on the Bears' 90-man roster who have the advantage of system knowledge. |

Panthers | Carolina picks up Bryce Young's option Wed Apr 29, 01:37 PM
Carolina Panthers QB Bryce Young had his fifth-year option exercised Wednesday, April 29.
| Footballguys view: General manager Dan Morgan said on January 13 that the Panthers would pick up Young's option. The paperwork was filed on Wednesday and keeps him on the roster through the 2027 season. Young's coming off a career season, setting new highs in passing yards (3,011), touchdowns (23), and completion percentage (63.6). He also had six of his 12 game-winning drives in the fourth quarter or overtime last year, the most of any quarterback in the league since 2023, when he entered the league. But until he becomes a more consistent producer, Young remains a low-end QB2 in fantasy. |

Link to story Browns | Deshaun Watson on the inside track Wed Apr 29, 11:47 AM
Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson emerged from voluntary minicamp last week with an edge over QB Shedeur Sanders in the starting quarterback competition, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: One year after calling the trade for Watson a "big swing-and-miss," Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said in March that Watson has a "great chance" and a "fresh start" with offensive-minded first-year coach Todd Monken. According to Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot, Monken hopes to declare -- or at least identify -- his starter by the end of Browns minicamp (June 11). Shedeur Sanders has time to close the gap with a former three-time Pro Bowler. But as things stand now, Watson is the most likely candidate to be atop the depth chart heading into training camp. |

Broncos | Bo Nix on schedule after ankle check-in Wed Apr 29, 12:30 AM
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix had a follow-up, cleanup procedure on his fractured right ankle last week. The 26-year-old broke it in the Broncos' divisional-round victory over Buffalo, and is 'firmly on track to be ready for the start of training camp,' according to the report.
| Footballguys view: Nix fractured his right ankle near the end of the Broncos' divisional round playoff victory over the Bills. Before his Jan. 20 surgery, Nix called his injury a "simple fracture" that would require only a 4-6 week recovery. He did not mention a necessary follow-up procedure, and team owner Greg Penner said in March that the Broncos were confident Nix would participate in organized team activities as the quarterback was ahead of schedule in his rehab. Now, the timeline is training camp as the Broncos will be "conservative" with his participation in the offseason program. We'll be watching for more. |
Eagles | A.J. Brown to net first-round pick from Pats Wed Apr 29, 12:24 AM
Philadelphia Eagles A.J. Brown will likely be traded to the New England Patriots for a first-round draft pick when the trade 'comes together' on June 1, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
| Footballguys view: The two sides have discussed a deal, according to Schefter, but neither has been willing to commit to it before June 1 -- when the Eagles could split Brown's $43 million dead salary cap charge between this year and next. But everything is lining up for a move to happen. The Eagles drafted rookie wide receiver Makai Lemon in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and they also signed three veterans in Elijah Moore, Marquise "Hollywood" Brown, and Dontayvion Wicks. Meanwhile, the Patriots passed completely on drafting a wide receiver. Stay tuned. |

Lions | Scotty Miller meets with Detroit Wed Apr 29, 12:17 AM
Free agent (Steelers) WR Scotty Miller met with the Detroit Lions on Tuesday, April 29. He will also try out for the Chicago Bears next week.
| Footballguys view: Miller originally signed with the Steelers back in May, 2024. He spent the season with Pittsburgh but was released in January of 2025. The Steelers then brought Miller back later that month. Miller appeared in 11 games last season and even got one start. Miller finished with nine receptions for 62 receiving yards. The Lions don't have a pressing need at receiver right now. Their three starters are Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Isaac TeSlaa. In total, Detroit has nine receivers on its roster, so the team may be updating its scouting reports on future additions. |

Chargers | Quentin Johnston gets option exercised by LAC Tue Apr 28, 04:54 PM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston had his fifth-year option exercised by the Chargers on Tuesday, April 28.
| Footballguys view: The move fully guarantees Johnston's $18 million salary for 2027. The Chargers made Johnston a first-round pick in 2023. He led the team in touchdowns the past two seasons and posted a career-high 735 receiving yards in 14 games last season. Johnston has 144 catches for 1,877 yards and 18 touchdowns since entering the league. The Chargers have a deep wide receivers room with Ladd McConkey, Johnston, Tre' Harris, and KeAndre Lambert-Smith. |

| Footballguys view: As the Jets sorted through potential backup options -- which also included Carson Wentz at one point -- GM Darren Mougey and head coach Aaron Glenn discussed potential options with Smith. Per Rosenblatt's source, Smith mentioned that he enjoyed working with Wilson when they were with the Seahawks in 2020-21, when Smith backed up Wilson. We'll watch for more. |

The Ravens also agreed to sign UDFA quarterback Joe Fagnano out of UConn earlier on Tuesday. That gives the club a pair of young QBs behind starter Lamar Jackson and backup Tyler Huntley. |

Chiefs | Kansas City 'shocked' to have Emmett Johnson Tue Apr 28, 01:19 PM
Chiefs vice president of player personnel Ryne Nutt says the team was 'shocked' they could select RB Emmett Johnson in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: According to SBNation's Ron Kopp Jr., Johnson is projected to be the immediate backup to free-agent addition Ken Walker III, who will handle the lead role. But don't be surprised if Johnson earns his way onto the field on pass downs or in other situations. While there's a path to a role here, Footballguy Dave Kluge, in the 2026 Rookie Draft Guide 3.0, suggests "the floor for Johnson is low." |
Steelers | Aaron Rodgers tagged with rare tender Tue Apr 28, 10:46 AM
Free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers (Steelers) received a right-of-first-refusal tender Tuesday, April 28, which means he can accept a 10% raise off last year's salary, which would pay him about $15 million this season. It also means the Steelers can match any offer he signs with another team, and forbidding him the ability to sign with another team once training camp begins.
| Footballguys view: Rodgers, who spent the 2025 season with the Steelers after a prolonged offseason courtship, has been weighing his options for the upcoming season over the past three months. GM Omar Khan and coach Mike McCarthy indicated last week that there isn't a timeline or a deadline to hear from the 42-year-old quarterback. The Steelers selected QB Drew Allar in the third round of the NFL draft, but McCarthy said the move was unrelated to Rodgers' decision. But today's move is directly related. Essentially, Rodgers is locked in with the Steelers for when he decides if he wants to play. |

Rams | Ty Simpson had private meetings with Sean McVay Tue Apr 28, 10:41 AM
Los Angeles Rams first-round pick QB Ty Simpson said he had private meetings with head coach Sean McVay before they selected him in the first round of the NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: "They wanted to make it private and didn't want people to know that they were interested," Simpson said Monday via ESPN's Sarah Barshop. "I was trying to be on script and do what everybody told me and not to tell anybody." Telling the QB not to say anything about meeting with McVay makes sense. It also adds further context to McVay's body language immediately after the pick, which made it seem as if the coach wasn't on board with selecting Simpson 13th overall. All of this looks increasingly like an effort to be respectful of current starter Matthew Stafford. |
Cardinals | Tyler Allgeier thought he was starting Tue Apr 28, 09:49 AM
Arizona Cardinals RB Tyler Allgeier signed with the Cardinals in the offseason because he believed he would be the lead running back.
| Footballguys view: The arrival of Jeremiyah Love, the third pick overall in last week's draft, puts Allgeier in familiar territory. He spent the past three years playing behind Bijan Robinson in Atlanta. Barring injury issues for Love, Allgeier has almost no path to a front-line fantasy role this season. All that said, Allgeier did benefit from a goal-line role in Atlanta. He scored a career-high eight touchdowns last season. We may see a similar role if the Cardinals find themselves near the goal line this fall. For now, Allgeier is RB48 on the Footballguys projections. Love opens as RB10. |
Dolphins | Miami interested in Jauan Jennings Tue Apr 28, 12:51 AM
Free-agent WR Jauan Jennings (49ers) has been receiving interest from the Miami Dolphins this offseason, but the Dolphins to not have the salary cap space to sign him at this point, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: The Dolphins, who traded Jaylen Waddle and released Tyreek Hill and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, have been adding wideouts on the cheap since. They signed Jalen Tolbert and Tutu Atwell in the first wave of free agency, then selected three -- Caleb Douglas, Chris Bell, and Kevin Coleman Jr. -- in last week's NFL Draft. While it's a reach financially, if he lands in Miami, Jennings, who caught a career-high nine touchdowns with the Niners last season, would likely be the team's top wideout. |

Bills | Buffalo not moving Keon Coleman Tue Apr 28, 12:44 AM
Buffalo Bills WR Keon Coleman has received trade interest this offseason, but general manager Brandon Beane said the team is not interested in trading Coleman.
| Footballguys view: Coleman has had two inconsistent seasons with the Bills. He was disciplined last November for being late to a meeting and was a healthy scratch for four games. By the end of 2025, Coleman was Buffalo's sixth wide receiver. He had 38 catches for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games this past season. Even if he's sticking around, the team used a fourth-round pick this year on UConn wide receiver Skyler Bell to add to a receiver room that also includes DJ Moore, Khalil Shakir, and Joshua Palmer. |
