Freiermuth salvaged his fantasy day on a shuttle pass in the fourth quarter, which he took into the end zone from six yards out to give the Steelers a 17-13 lead with under five minutes remaining. Even so, the modest volume appears to be a consistent trend for the veteran tight end, particularly if Justin Fields continues to start under center. Freiermuth’s next chance to return a usable fantasy week comes in Week 6 when the Steelers travel to Las Vegas to face the Raiders.

The team’s “sixth man” along the offensive line quickly developed into a fan favorite after continually reporting as eligible, routinely being found in a route near the end zone from jumbo formations. Skipper has experience at both guard and tackle and also gives the Lions a viable backup along the offensive line should injuries arise in 2025.

Borom has played a swing tackle role for the Bears since they drafted him in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He has 27 career starts across four seasons split primarily between right and left tackle. Borom does, however, have a few reps at both guard spots in the NFL. He should slot into a backup role for the Dolphins.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Young can earn up to $57 million. Young tied his career-best quarterback pressure sum last year, notching 66 in his first season with the Saints. He added seven sacks and 19 tackles. At 25 years old, Young is in his prime and ready to contribute to DC Brandon Staley’s new defense.

The seven-year veteran was widely regarded as one of the top interior linemen in free agency, with the Dolphins pouncing on his services after struggling mightily up front a season ago. That said, Daniels comes with risk after suffering a torn Achilles in late September of 2024. Daniels has played all three interior linemen positions throughout his career and should be ready for the start of the 2025 regular season.

Per Adam Schefter, Juszczyk intends to test free agency and wants to keep playing in the league, but it could be difficult to come across a situation that brings as much playing time as he had in San Francisco considering the dying art of the fullback position. The 12-year veteran has spent the previous eight seasons with the 49ers after coming into the league with the Ravens in 2013. Now entering his age-34 season, Juszczyk no longer brings the same rushing and receiving upside he once did, but he remains one of the better all-around fullbacks in the league.

The quarterback dominoes are falling fast in free agency with Sam Darnold and Justin Fields both finding homes. The Titans might not have been chomping at the bit to sign either player, but their options are still dwindling. With the No. 1 overall pick, Ward is theirs for the taking if they want a high-upside shot on the rookie instead of going the veteran route. They could also trade back or make a surprising pick with Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders. Either way, the Titans aren’t heading into the 2025 season with Will Levis as their unquestioned starter.

Winchester stays with the Chiefs on a fully guaranteed deal. The 10-year NFL veteran has played the entirety of his career in Kansas City and enters his age-36 season right where it began.

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.
