Smith’s 10 targets handily led the team on a night alpha wide receiver A.J. Brown was held out due to a hamstring injury. Sideline reporting indicated that Brown could miss multiple games with the ailment, putting Smith in a solid position to rack up volume through the air for the next game or two. He was able to fight through tough coverage from A.J. Terrell for most of the night, another good sign for his fantasy value in the immediate future.

Robinson also says he “got the sense the Titans don’t have strong Russell Wilson interest.” It’s a tough situation for Wilson, who undoubtedly believes that he deserves a starting role. Giants beat reporters have indicated that the team would like to pair a veteran quarterback with a high-end rookie, which likely means the veteran gets benched during the team’s bye week, if not sooner.

The Bengals are working to rebuild their defensive front, following DE Trey Hendrickson’s trade request and DE Sam Hubbard’s retirement. They re-signed DT B.J. Hill earlier today. Ossai posted career-highs in both QB pressures (31) and sacks (five) last season and at just 24 years old, he has the chance to take another developmental step this season.

The deal includes a maximum value of $2 million with incentives, likely pertaining to his special teams contributions. Hansen has appears in 41 games in three years with the Texans while contributing four total starts. He has served primarily as one of the team’s backup inside linebackers and should continue to so so in 2025.

The deal is worth “up to” $6 million. Board made a name for himself as a UDFA in Baltimore via his special teams prowess. He has since signed multi-year deals with multiple teams and even returned to Baltimore for the 2024 season. Board also got some run on defense last year and finished the season with 30 tackles plus one sack. He will fill a similar role in New York.

Hudson was a regular for the Browns through four seasons in the league, typically serving as somewhat of a sixth man for the Cleveland offensive line. That role afforded him 17 starts in 49 appearances through effectively three-plus seasons before landing on injured reserve with a shoulder injury in October of 2024. He brings experience at multiple positions along the offensive line to a Giants team that has struggled with health up front in recent years.

Dulin, coming off a torn ACL that cost his the entire 2023 campaign, had just two receptions for Indy in 2024. He was mostly relegated to special teams duty after seeing some receiver usage before his 2023 knee injury. Going into his age-28 season, Dulin will remain a rotational wideout for the Colts in 2025.

Rapoport adds that the “deal is not done yet” but things seem to be heading in the right direction. Signing Harris would give the Chargers a capable north-south rusher, who would ostensibly assume starting duties. Current free agent, and 2024 starter, J.K. Dobbins remains unsigned.

Greenlaw managed just nine total tackles in 2024 after experiencing discomfort in his surgically repaired Achilles but erupted during the 2022 and 2023 seasons as a mainstay in the interior of the San Francisco defense. During those two seasons, Greenlaw combined for 247 tackles, 1.5 sacks, and one interception. He should immediately combine with Alex Singleton to form one of the most athletic interior linebacker units in the league.

Tart racked up 20 tackles, 16 QB pressures and one sack in his first season with the Chargers last year. Both his tackle and sack totals are the second-best figures of his five-year career. The signing helps solidify a Chargers defensive line that recently released DE Joey Bosa.

The deal carries a maximum value of $3.5 million through incentives. The Cowboys were highly likely to address running back in some fashion through free agency considering the only other back on the roster was the undersized Deuce Vaughn, but the monetary value of Williams’ contract does not inspire much confidence in dynasty managers stuck riding him out this offseason. Rico Dowdle currently remains an unrestricted free agent although the team could feasibly bring him back on another team-friendly contract.
