The Buffalo Bills agreed to terms to re-sign safety Damar Hamlin on an undisclosed one-year deal, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Hamlin, who famously went into cardiac arrest on the field against the Cincinnati Bengals on a Monday night game in 2022, will stick around in Buffalo for a fifth season after collecting 89 tackles (62 solo), his first two career interceptions, a career-high five pass breakups and a fumble recovery in 14 regular-season starts in 2024. At the very least, the 26-year-old defensive back will provide depth in Buffalo's secondary, but depending on what the team does the rest of the offseason, Hamlin could be in line to start at safety in 2025. The former sixth-round pick in 2021 out of Pittsburgh has 184 career tackles (129 solo), 1.5 sacks, eight tackles for loss, two interceptions, nine pass breakup, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in his four seasons.

FOX Sports' Ralph Vacchiano reports that free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers is deciding between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Giants. He's also hoping that the Minnesota Vikings will get involved. The fallback option for both the Steelers and Giants appears to be Russell Wilson. If Rodgers signs with the Vikings and Wilson re-signs with Pittsburgh, the Giants would then be left with options such as Jameis Winston, Joe Flacco and Marcus Mariota. They'd almost certainly take a QB in the upcoming draft with the third overall pick or trade up to No. 1 to get one. A source insisted that Rodgers' decision was all about the situation and fit, not the money. The 41-year-old future Hall of Famer is expected to make his decision on Wednesday. Rodgers would have a nice receiver duo of DK Metcalf and George Pickens in Pittsburgh, although he still figures to be no better than a midrange QB2 in fantasy wherever he lands.

Dynasty | The Steelers have signed running back Kenneth Gainwell. Dynasty Analysis: This is a little bit of an under the radar signing, but it could prove to be significant should the Steelers fail to add much else to their backfield. Gainwell has been effective in spurts throughout his career but never had more than 84 carries or 364 yards in his career. However, the backfield currently consists of a 1-2 punch that includes Jaylen Warren and Gainwell himself. His dynasty value is in flux right now and could rise significantly if this is what the Steelers enter the season with in their backfield. Stay tuned.

Dynasty | The Titans have signed wide receiver Van Jefferson. Dynasty Analysis: Jefferson should take the place of Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, who signed with Miami earlier this week. He was moderately productive for the Steelers last year, posting 24 catches for 277 yards and two touchdowns over a full season of 17 games. Still, we haven't seen Jefferson really do much in terms of fantasy production for a few years so he should stay on dynasty waiver wires.

The Tennessee Titans are signing former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Van Jefferson to a one-year deal worth up to $2.5 million. Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports reported the news. The former Florida Gator spent one season in Pittsburgh, accumulating just 24 receptions, 276 yards, and two touchdowns in 17 games. Jefferson played the second-most snaps of all Steelers wideouts with 755 (George Pickens). The 28-year-old has eclipsed 370 receiving yards only once in his career (in 2022 with the Rams) but figures to slot in as the team's second WR behind incumbent primary option Calvin Ridley. He'll now vie for targets with fellow wideouts Tyler Boyd and Treylon Burks and tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo. Jefferson regularly disappeared last season, recording one catch or fewer in nine appearances, and will be difficult to trust as a viable fantasy option in 2025 despite the change of scenery.

The NFL's Ian Rapoport reports that the Buffalo Bills are signing former Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi on a one-year $8.3 million deal with $8 million guaranteed. The agreement has a maximum value of $10 million, including incentives. The eight-year pro is finally leaving the AFC North, as he also spent one season in Cincinnati after being selected by the Cleveland Browns in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft. Ogunjobi ranked fifth in snaps across Pittsburgh's entire defensive front a season ago, registering 41 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 15 games of work. Buffalo allowed 117.7 rushing yards per contest in 2024 (thirteenth-fewest), and it appears they're looking to improve upon that metric in 2025 as the 30-year-old joins newly-signed defensive ends Joey Bosa and Michael Hoecht on the Bills' roster.

The Detroit Lions have signed former Arizona Cardinals defensive tackle Roy Lopez to a one-year $4.65 million deal. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported the news. Lopez, 27, spent his last two seasons in Arizona, racking up 70 tackles and one sack across 30 games played. The former sixth-round pick notched the second-most snaps of the Cardinals' interior defensive linemen, though he eclipsed 50% of snaps in just 5-of-16 appearances. Lopez projects to serve primarily as a depth piece for Detroit as they attempt to make the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance in 2025. He'll join a defense that let up the sixth-fewest rushing yards per game in 2024 (103).

According to ESPN's Field Yates, the Kansas City Chiefs have restructured quarterback Patrick Mahomes' contract, effectively freeing up cap space to sign recent free-agent acquisitions. Per Yates, the Chiefs also tweaked defensive tackle Chris Jones' contract, adding $49.446 million to their 2025 salary cap. This smart move allowed Kansas City to comfortably sign defensive back Kristian Fulton and offensive tackle Jaylon Moore and should afford them some cushion to pursue others. The Chiefs fell shy of repeating their Super Bowl success for the third straight season, but they'll continue to retool their roster in an effort to get back to the big game this upcoming year. Despite Mahomes' on-field success, it hasn't correlated to fantasy lineups over the last few years. In 2024, the Texas Tech product set a career low with 3,928 passing yards while matching the lowest passing TD figure of his eight-year career (26) and tossed double-digit interceptions for the fourth-straight season.

Dynasty | The 49ers have signed wide receiver Demarcus Robinson. Dynasty Analysis: Robinson has spent time with the Rams, Chiefs and Ravens throughout his career and posted a decent 31/505/7 line in Los Angeles last season. He should help soften the blow from the loss of Deebo Samuel this off-season and should slot in behind Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings, and possibly Ricky Pearsall. His addition could also make Aiyuk more expendable as it seems the 49ers are willing to take calls on him.

Five-time Pro Bowl defensive end Joey Bosa reached an agreement on Tuesday night on a one-year, $12.6 million deal with the Buffalo Bills, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. Bosa will essentially replace veteran pass-rusher Von Miller, who was cut by the Bills over the weekend. The 29-year-old former third overall pick by the Chargers in 2016 out of Ohio State had offers from the San Francisco 49ers (he could have joined forces with his brother Nick) and the Miami Dolphins, but he ultimately chose to head to the AFC East to join a Bills team that came very close to advancing to the Super Bowl last year. Bosa has 62 sacks in nine NFL seasons as a premier pass-rushing talent, but injuries have slowed him down in recent years and made him a shell of his former self. He's no longer a must-draft in IDP leagues and could serve in a rotational role in Buffalo alongside Greg Rousseau and A.J. Epenesa.

Dynasty | The Cardinals have signed free agent quarterback Jacoby Brissett. Dynasty Analysis: This is a nice signing for Arizona as they'll have a capable quarterback behind Kyler Murray who likley didn't cost a fortune to acquire. Brissett has proven to be a solid NFL backup and spot starter, though not quite good enough to elevate a franchise for more than a few weeks. He'll remain off the dynasty radar unless you need him in a 2QB league or as injury insurance for Murray.

Dynasty | The Saints have re-signed tight end Juwan Johnson to a three-year deal. Dynasty Analysis: Johnson had a solid season with 50 catches for 548 yards and three touchdowns last year. While it seems he has a ceiling as a TE2, he's also fairly reliable. Going back to New Orleans should provide some stability to his value, especially if Taysom Hill doesn't return. Johnson should remain on dynasty rosters and serve as a starter for dynasty teams lacking a truly elite option at the position.

Dynasty | Wide receiver Zay Jones has been re-signed to a one-year deal. Dynasty Analysis: Jones gets $4.4 million to stick around as the Cardinals fourth receiver behind Marvin Harrison Jr, Michael Wilson and Greg Dortch. Once a very highly though of dynasty asset, Jones just hasn't done much of anything over the past couple of seasons. At this point, he really doesn't belong on a dynasty roster and has achieved late-career roster clogger status.

The Cleveland Browns are signing former Tampa Bay Buccaneers outside linebacker Joe Tryon-Shoyinka to a one-year, $4.75 million contract, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. The Washington product was a first-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft by Tampa Bay and has collected 138 tackles (87 solo), 15 sacks, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, eight pass deflections, and 15 run stuffs in 66 career games. The 26-year-old has missed just two games during his four-year NFL career and will provide depth along Jim Schwartz's defensive front while playing alongside and behind Myles Garrett.

Dynasty | Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson will not request a trade following the signing of Daniel Jones. Dynasty Analysis: The signing of Jones (and the amount of the contract he got) is clearly going to create an open competition at quarterback for the Colts. Richardson needs to get better in a hurry and is reportedly spending the off-season working on his mechanics. The Colts are growing impatient here and now have a bona fide backup plan should he fail. Richardson is apparently embracing the news and wants to rise to the challenge. His ADP is going to fall with Jones in tow and this would be the time to buy low in a dynasty league should you still believe he's going to be a franchise quarterback.

The Philadelphia Eagles are trading veteran defensive back C. J. Gardner-Johnson and a sixth-round pick for Houston Texans offensive guard Kenyon Green and a fifth-round pick, according to NFL insider Ari Meirov. Houston reached a deal to trade Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil to the Washington Commanders on Monday and is now sending a second starting offensive lineman out of town. Philadelphia is not expected to reach a deal with last year's starting right guard, Mekhi Becton, so Green could fill that role in 2025. Meanwhile, Gardner-Johnson, who played in 16 games for the Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles last season, will join a strong Houston secondary led by Derek Stingley Jr.

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes restructured his contract Wednesday, March 12, to create an undisclosed amount of salary cap space. DT Chris Jones did the same, and combined, they created $49.446 million in space.

Fantasy Spin: Mahomes is coming off one of his worst statistical years in 2024 as he finished as the QB11 in fantasy. He absolutely should be better than that, but it's likely that his best fantasy days are behind him. He'll be a better pick in the QB5-QB7 range if he falls that far.

Updating a previous report, impending free-agent S Eric Murray (Texans) agreed to a three-year deal worth $19.5 million - including a $5 million signing bonus and $12 million guaranteed - with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday, March 10.

The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec reports that the Baltimore Ravens are releasing both cornerback Arthur Maulet and safety Marcus Williams. The move to release Maulet will create $2.2 million in salary cap space in 2025. Maulet, 31, was a key member of one of the NFL's best defenses back in 2023, but he only played in three regular-season games last year due to hamstring and knee injuries. Williams, 28, will be officially cut on the first day of the new league year on Wednesday, a move that was a formality after the two sides altered his contract in January to facilitate his exit this offseason. Williams began the season as Baltimore's starting safety alongside Kyle Hamilton but eventually lost his starting spot to Ar'Darius Washington and played in only 11 regular-season games. Both Maulet and Williams were considered the team's likeliest salary cap casualties.
