Chaisson was questionable with a knee injury coming into the game, so it is likely the same knee. He didn’t appear in the stat sheet before leaving. Chaisson had played just 28 snaps in Jacksonville’s first four games of the season.

The tender is worth $5.3 million for one year. Mason can negotiate with other teams and the 49ers are free to match any offer he gets. If they choose not to, the team signing him gives up a second-round pick. For that reason, it’s safe to say Mason is sticking in the Bay Area for 2025. With Elijah Mitchell gone, Mason will compete with second-year back Isaac Guerendo for RB2 duties. The backup to Christian McCaffrey has some value as an insurance option for fantasy purposes, but it’s tough to say who that player is before the offseason program ramps up. It’s a waiting game for early fantasy drafters.

Veteran Lucas served as the Commanders’ No. 3 tackle for the past half decade. He’s made at least four starts each of the past six seasons, reaching seven starts five times in that timespan. Going on 34, he’s an experienced depth signing for a Browns team that had no shortage of offensive line issues in 2024.

The 2021 third-rounder just wrapped up his rookie contract with something of a breakout campaign, though he’s already 27 years old. Golston notched 5.5 sacks last season after totaling just 4.5 through his first three years in the league. His 790 snaps were also close to double his previous career high. There could be more meat on the bone, but Golston is beyond the typical age of exponential improvement. He is versatile, possessing the bulk to kick insider along the interior in obvious passing situations.

Raiders head coach Pete Carroll gets his do-it-all linebacker. At 30 years old, Roberts is still a very capable run-defender and blitzer. He tallied 32 tackles, eight tackles for loss or no gain and 12 quarterback pressures last season. The latter sum is the second-best total of his career and he’s impressively finished with double-digit quarterback pressures in each of the last four seasons

The deal is worth “up to” $4.75 million. Jones is a depth signing who has just 297 snaps on offense over the past two years for the Ravens and Cardinals, though he has fairly extensive experience for a reserve. He’s a solid enough addition for an offensive line in need of a makeover.

Silver adds that Bosa would “get less than $10 million in 2025 in either scenario.” Bosa has missed multiple games due to injury in each of the last three seasons, most recently sitting out Weeks 3-7 after suffering a Week 2 hip injury. The talented 29-year-old still racked up five regular season sacks and 34 quarterback pressures; the latter being his highest sum since 2021. These offers are perhaps a tad light but Bosa may take the opportunity to lineup opposite his brother, Nick Bosa, with the 49ers, regardless.

Jones has put together a successful UDFA career, having worked his way upward, through backup roles, before taking on starting duties last season, manning the Dolphins’ left guard spot. Jones will compete for a starting role with the Cowboys, who lost stalwart RG Zack Martin to retirement this offseason.

Johnson provides depth in the secondary and reliable special teams skills. Raiders head coach Pete Carroll has long appreciated players with diverse skill sets, who can contribute in multiple facets of the game. While Johnson may not be a high-snap defensive player, he will be given a chance to contribute in his own way.

The Steelers and Giants currently appear to be the frontrunners for the veteran quarterback, although Florio reports it’s the Steelers currently in the driver’s seat. Rodgers has indicated he intends to play for two more years and the Steelers give him the best chances of doing so. They also have a more sturdy roster around him, especially after adding DK Metcalf earlier Monday. Those two aspects combine with an increased chance at the postseason in Pittsburgh to make them the likeliest landing spot for Rodgers, particularly after the team parted ways with both Russell Wilson and Justin Fields earlier in the week. There isn’t anything yet set in stone, but the two sides could reportedly reach an agreement as early as Tuesday.
