Landman has been on injured reserve since Week 1 with a quadriceps injury. He had 110 total tackles, two sacks, three forced fumbles, three pass deflections and an interception in 16 games in 2023.

These things, of course, can change. Rodgers brings a lot of baggage with him into free agency — The Athletic’s Zack Rosenblatt reported it was “likely” Rodgers would be a post-June 1 release when things were officially finalized. It is hard to argue that Rodgers isn’t one of the 32 most talented quarterbacks in the world right now, even with his mobility reduced after the Achilles tear that ended his 2023 season. We’re sure we’ll be posting a lot about Rodgers over the next few months, but it might be hard for him to find a team that wants to start him in 2025.

Reed speculates that the Raiders could cut Minshew and notes that they will free up $3 million in cap space by moving on, although it could be $6 million if they used a post-June 1 designation on his release. Aidan O’Connell enters the offseason as the starter for the Raiders, but new management seems likely to add a veteran at the very least. They could do more than that by putting together a big contract for someone like Sam Darnold.

Smith missed several games last season with an undisclosed personal matter. Releasing the soon-to-be 29-year-old would save the Colts $16.75 million against the salary cap. Matt Goncalves played 566 snaps last year and may be inheriting the right tackle role in Indianapolis. Smith would make an interesting veteran addition to a tackle-needy team if his personal matters are resolved.

Everett, as our last blurb on him lays out succinctly, caught eight passes all season. The Bears can save $5.5 million against the cap by releasing Everett, and Cole Kmet is obviously Chicago’s No. 1 option at the position. Everett will likely be looking elsewhere for a stay-in-the-league sort of role in 2025.

Taking over from Liam Coen after spending the year designing Tampa’s third-down looks, Grizzard said “continuity will remain essentially the same” and the team will use the same verbiage, formations, and motions as it did last year. Mike Evans told reporters “it’s going to be similar to what we’ve run.” An unchanged offense in Tampa Bay would be good news for Baker Mayfield, Bucky Irving, Evans and company. There will undoubtedly be new challenges for Grizzard, but we should be expecting a similar shape of production from a fantasy perspective.

Singleton first joined the NFL ranks in 2016 as the Colts running backs coach. He’s since held the same title for the Raiders (2018), Bengals (2019 to 2020), and Eagles (2021 to present), and he has also been the Eagles’ assistant head coach since 2021. According to Schefter, an Eagles official said Singleton was “a big part of what we do on offense and a rising star going forward.” It goes without saying that his relationship to head coach Kellen Moore, who he worked with in 2024, could give him an inside edge to secure the Saints’ OC role.

Cleveland, 26, was arrested on February 12th in Milledgeville, Georgia, according to reports from the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office. The fourth-year lineman reportedly had a BAC of .178, which is more than twice the legal limit. Cleveland was reportedly driving erratically and narrowly missed driving his truck into a ditch. He also admitted to drinking “approximately 3-4 beers.” Cleveland has started in seven of the 54 games he’s appeared in for the Ravens over four seasons and will be an unrestricted free agent this off-season. He was already unlikely to re-sign with the Ravens after he and head coach John Harbaugh seemingly didn’t see eye-to-eye on his play on the decision to relegate him to a backup this season.

Godwin was franchise tagged by the Buccaneers during the 2021 and 2022 offseasons in hopes of eventually securing him to a long-term contract. While that ultimately paid off in 2022, when they signed him to a three-year, $60 million deal, they are not expected to do the same thing this offseason, leaving the soon-to-be 29-year-old receiver free to test free agency. Godwin was on pace to have one of his most productive seasons to date, but a broken ankle ended his 2024 campaign after just seven games. Godwin caught 50 passes for 576 yards and five touchdowns in seven 2024 starts. How Godwin responds to recovery from his torn ACL will weigh into how teams view him this free agent cycle, but he should still have a decent market given his age and productivity over the years. It’s possible his days with the Buccaneers could be nearing an end once free agency kicks off next month.

According to Walters, those candidates include Josh Williams and James Gladstone, who are directors of scouting for the 49ers and Rams, respectively. Bears assistant general manager Ian Cunningham is also a finalist, as is Packers’ VP of player personnel, Jon-Eric Sullivan. Perhaps the most interesting finalist on this list is Jaguars interim GM Ethan Waugh, who has familiarity with those in the building but also worked closely with former GM Trent Baalke, whose firing appeared to have a direct impact on head coach Liam Coen’s willingness to join the team. Walters reports the Jaguars are expected to make a decision on GM by the end of the week.

Gaughan examines how the Bills need to create cap space and releasing Miller is the easiest way to do it. If Miller is a post-June 1 cut, the Bills can lower his cap figure down to $6.37 million and save $14.77 million. If they release him without the June 1 designation in March, it’s an $8.4 million savings. Miller, who turns 36 in March, recorded six sacks in a reserve role last season. The three-time All-Pro selection and Super Bowl 50 MVP signed a six-year, $120 million contract with Buffalo in 2022, after spending 10 seasons with the Broncos and Rams, winning a pair of Super Bowl titles.
