Saquon Barkley Not In Giants Long-Term Plans?
SNY's Ralph Vacchiano doesn't believe that New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is in the team's long-term plans. He's heading into the final year of his contract in 2022 and is guaranteed $7.2 million. Cutting him is pointless, since he'd still count for $7.2 million against the salary cap. With the Giants needing to... Read More
Cole Beasley A Cut Candidate?
Considering the different types of wide receivers available in free agency and the draft and that the Buffalo Bills are projected to be in the red in terms of salary cap space in 2022, general manager Brandon Beane could look to create cap space by releasing veteran wide receiver Cole Beasley this offseason. Beasley averaged... Read More
Packers Not Ready To Move On From Mason Crosby?
Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst didn't sound ready to move on from veteran kicker Mason Crosby during his press conference this week.

Za'Darius Smith A Release Candidate
Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Za'Darius Smith, who was a second-team All-Pro in 2020, is a candidate to be released this offseason.

Chicago Bears quarterback Nick Foles is a cut candidate this offseason.

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson sat out the entire 2021 season due to multiple accusations of sexual misconduct.

Jakobi Meyers Could Get Second-Round Tender
New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is expected to remain with the organization in 2022.

In the opinion of The Athletic's Bob Kravitz, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz will not be with the team in 2022. The Colts don't have many favorable options to replace Wentz, but the experiment with Wentz in 2021 was an abject failure. Head coach Frank Reich and general manager Chris Ballard both failed to commit... Read More

Allen Robinson II Unlikely To Return
The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain doesn't see a scenario in which the Chicago Bears re-sign wide receiver Allen Robinson II this offseason.

Read More
Tarik Cohen Could Be A Cut Candidate
Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen, who missed all of the 2021 season due to a torn ACL in his knee, could be in danger of being cut this offseason. The Bears would only have $3.5 million in dead money if they were to cut Cohen, while he'd save the team $2.25 million against the... Read More

Buccaneers Showing Interest In Deshaun Watson
Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson could be headed to a new team this offseason. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have reportedly done extensive homework on Watson.
