    Johnathan Hankins May 30 5:10pm CT
    Johnathan Hankins

    John Boyle of Seahawks.com reports that the Seattle Seahawks have signed undrafted rookie free agent defensive tackle Anthony Campbell to a three-year, $2.965 million contract. Defensive tackle DeMeco Roland was waived in a corresponding move. The Miami (FL) product was a four-year player in college, but spent his final two seasons as a Hurricane, appearing in nine games. Campbell's most productive season came in 2022 with Louisiana-Monroe, notching four tackles for loss, one sack, one pass defensed, and one forced fumble. He'll provide depth at nose tackle for Seattle behind teammates Byron Murphy II, Johnathan Hankins, and Quinton Bohanna.

    Kyle Hamilton May 30 4:50pm CT
    Kyle Hamilton

    Per the team, the Baltimore Ravens have signed rookie defensive back Malaki Starks to a four-year, $16.57 million contract. The Ravens finally inked their No. 27 overall pick. Starks is set to immediately impact Baltimore's defensive backfield alongside All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton and brings another versatile asset to their backend. He was a five-star prospect out of high school, ranked in the top 15 nationally, and garnered Second-team All-SEC honors in his final season with Georgia. There are questions about the 21-year-old's consistency, but he'll be surrounded by a crew of solid DBs that should help to mitigate any early issues he may run into.

    Audric Estime May 30 4:40pm CT
    Audric Estime

    On Thursday, Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton noted that running back Audric Estime will garner increased opportunities in his second season with the team. "He's a back that requires enough touches," said Payton. "He's going to get those opportunities." The former fifth-round rookie was undoubtedly lacking in opportunities in 2024 -- placing fourth on the team in carries and rushing yards behind backfield mates Javonte Williams and Jaleel McLaughlin and quarterback Bo Nix. Estime was a productive player in his final season at Notre Dame, finishing with 1,341 yards and 18 rushing scores in 12 games. However, Denver's recent selection of RJ Harvey in the second round adds formidable competition in the backfield. Harvey is slotted in first on the team's unofficial depth chart, ahead of Estime for now. The latter projects to be more of a traditional short-yardage back due to his larger stature, but Harvey is also a force between the tackles and profiles as a better pass-catcher despite poor pass-protection skills.

    Jaxson Dart May 30 4:20pm CT
    Jaxson Dart

    The New York Giants have signed rookie first-round quarterback Jaxson Dart to a four-year contract, per Dan Salomone of Giants.com. The financial details of the agreement have not been disclosed. Dart was the Giants' second selection in the first round (No. 25 overall) and joins four of his other seven draft mates to ink their rookie deal. It was recently noted that the Ole Miss product would sit his entire rookie season if "all goes well," per ESPN's Jordan Raanan. Still, it's unclear how long a leash fellow signal-callers Jameis Winston and Russell Wilson will be given in their first season with the team. The Giants don't need to rush Dart onto the field. In fact, it'd likely behoove them more to do the opposite -- develop him the proper way behind a veteran (or two) for a year or two.

    Sam Darnold May 30 12:00pm CT
    Sam Darnold

    The Minnesota Vikings signed general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah to an undisclosed multi-year contract extension on Thursday night, sources tell NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The Vikings are 34-17 with two playoff appearances since Adofo-Mensah and head coach Kevin O'Connell arrived, and now both are signed with the organization for years to come. Both O'Connell and Adofo-Mensah signed four-year contracts when they first arrived in 2022. Minnesota has the league's sixth-best regular-season winning percentage (.667) since Adofo-Mensah and O'Connell were hired. The Vikings have received only 107 starts from players they drafted since 2022, but Adofo-Mensah has compiled a stellar free-agent class in 2024 that included quarterback Sam Darnold and outside linebackers Jonathan Greenard and Andrew Van Ginkel.

    Jameson Williams May 30 11:50am CT
    Jameson Williams

    Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that the team is expecting wide receiver Jameson Williams "to have a huge season." The Lions are expecting more from Williams after his breakout season in 2024 in which he caught 58 of his 91 targets for 1,001 yards and seven touchdowns in 15 regular-season games (11 starts). The 24-year-old former 12th overall pick in 2022 out of Ohio State battled injuries in his first two NFL seasons and also was hit with a suspension before finally realizing his potential last year. He also had 11 carries for 61 yards and a touchdown as a rusher. While fantasy managers have come to love Williams' big-play potential in one of the highest-scoring offenses in the NFL, it's going to be hard for him to maintain significant targets in an offense that lost offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. Detroit could emphasize the deep passing game more often, but Williams will be more of a boom/bust WR3/flex.

    Isaiah Likely May 30 11:50am CT
    Isaiah Likely

    Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh has high hopes for rising tight end Isaiah Likely as he enters the final year of his rookie deal in 2025. "I want to see [Likely] be an All-Pro," Harbaugh said . "That'd be my goal for him, and he's capable of it." The former fourth-rounder in 2022 has been the backup to Mark Andrews for much of his career, but that could be changing in 2025. Likely caught nine passes for 111 yards and a touchdown in the season opener a year ago, but he didn't have another 100-yard game the rest of the year. He ended the season with 42 catches, 477 yards and six touchdowns. In 49 total games with Baltimore, including 19 starts, Likely has 108 catches for 1,261 yards and 14 TDs. In 10 games that Andrews has missed due to injuries the last three years, he had 530 yards and seven TDs. If Andrews misses any more time in 2025, Likely will be a must-start TE1 on a weekly basis.

    Brandon Aiyuk May 30 11:40am CT
    Brandon Aiyuk

    There is still no official timeline for San Francisco 49ers Brandon Aiyuk's (knee) return in 2025, but general manager John Lynch expressed some optimism regarding his recovery from a torn ACL and MCL in his right knee that he suffered last October. "Brandon's tracking in a good way with his knee, and you've just got to kind of let that play out," Lynch said. "We're not going to put him out there until he's ready, but we're excited with our receiver group and where we're at." Aiyuk will most likely not be ready for the start of the 2025 regular season, but if he continues to make strides in his rehab, he could return sooner than later. Regardless, the 27-year-old's fantasy stock has taken a big hit after he caught just 25 passes for 374 yards and no touchdowns in seven games before his season-ending injury last year. Until Aiyuk is able to return, Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall (hamstring) will be the team's top wideouts.

    Malcolm Koonce May 30 11:30am CT
    Malcolm Koonce

    Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Malcolm Koonce (knee) returned to practice at voluntary organized team activities on Thursday, an important step in his recovery from the torn ACL that caused him to miss all of the 2024 season. In his return to practice on Thursday, Koonce was primarily limited to individual drills. Meanwhile, defensive tackle Christian Wilkins (foot) didn't practice on Thursday as he continues to rehab from a Jones fracture he suffered last October. It's unlikely that Wilkins will make an appearance on the field before training camp. The Raiders are hoping that Koonce can be one of their most effective edge rushers in 2025 opposite All-Pro Maxx Crosby. The 26-year-old former third-rounder (79th overall) in 2021 out of Buffalo had 43 tackles (32 solo), eight sacks, nine tackles for loss, 17 QB hits and three forced fumbles in 17 games (11 starts) in 2023.

    Jakobi Meyers May 30 11:30am CT
    Jakobi Meyers

    The Athletic's Tashan Reed reports that the Las Vegas Raiders are moving their receivers around a lot during voluntary organized team activities. Jakobi Meyers and rookie Jack Bech have lined up frequently at both outside and slot receiver, while Tre Tucker and Dont'e Thornton have mostly been locked in on the outside. Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly should be able to get pretty creative with his alignments based on the fact that tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer both have the ability to line up at slot or on the outside. Meyers had the best season of his career in 2024 with 87 catches, 1,027 yards and four touchdowns and is entering the final season of his contract in 2025. The 28-year-old benefitted from a pass-happy offense last year that was often playing from behind. While he gets an upgrade at QB with Geno Smith, the Raiders offense is now expected to be more run-heavy, likely leading to a regression in Meyers' numbers.

    Geno Smith May 30 11:20am CT
    Geno Smith

    The Athletic's Tashan Reed writes that so far this offseason, things have gone smoothly as Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith and offensive coordinator Chip Kelly have acclimated to one another. "Geno's literally like a second coach," Kelly said. "When you're in that room with him and Greg Olson, there's a lot of ideas going around. And then it's just a matter of corralling it. Because sometimes you can have too many ideas. Like, let's try to do a million things, and then you don't get good at one thing. But his football acumen is really off the charts, and it's impressive to be around him." Under Kelly, the Raiders want their offense to remain amorphous with flexibility to apply to their personnel groupings. Kelly is well-known for operating with plenty of wideouts, but Vegas also plans to use multi-tight-end sets frequently. Smith has a better TE to work with, but his weapons overall will be a downgrade from his last few years in Seattle. Consider him a high-end QB2/low-end QB1 in fantasy in his new digs.

    Patrick Mahomes May 30 11:10am CT
    Patrick Mahomes

    Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce contemplated retirement following the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl, but quarterback Patrick Mahomes says that the 35-year-old veteran is fully locked in now that he's decided to return for another season. "If it's the last ride, you would never know," Mahomes said. "The way he's talking about football. The way he's talking about working and trying to be even better this year than he was last year. He doesn't seem like a guy like it's his last ride, like he's tired of the job." Kelce has three Super Bowl rings, four All-Pro selections, 10 Pro Bowl nods, in addition to ranking third all time at TE in catches among tight ends (1,004), third in receiving yards (12,151) and fifth in TDs (77). However, he had just 823 yards, 97 catches and three scores in 2024, his lowest marks since hi rookie campaign. Kelce may not be the top overall fantasy TE anymore, but he's still in the TE1 mix and should be targeted plenty in the red zone by his buddy Mahomes.

    Darnell Mooney May 30 10:50am CT
    Darnell Mooney

    The Atlanta Falcons plan to target wide receiver Darnell Mooney more often during the 2025 season, according to wide receivers coach Ike Hilliard. "We're going to lean on him a lot more than we did last year and see where that goes," Hilliard said. Mooney impressed during his first campaign as a Falcon last year, catching 64 passes for 992 yards and five touchdowns through 16 games. He was the overall WR31 in PPR leagues despite missing the season's final contest with a shoulder injury. Mooney said he performed well on deep routes last year, and quarterback Michael Penix Jr. acknowledged how difficult he is to cover one-on-one. Operating alongside another talented receiver in Drake London, Mooney currently ranks as RotoBaller's WR48 in redraft leagues. That puts him ahead of players like Cooper Kupp, Stefon Diggs, and Matthew Golden.

    Kyle Pitts May 30 10:40am CT
    Kyle Pitts

    Multiple teams have reached out to the Atlanta Falcons about a potential trade for tight end Kyle Pitts, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. Atlanta would reportedly require at least a Day 2 draft pick in order to entertain a trade, and at the time, no deal is imminent. Nevertheless, it's an interesting storyline to follow as training camp approaches. Pitts has failed to live up to expectations as the No. 4 overall pick in 2021. He has just 10 touchdowns over four seasons and hasn't surpassed the 675-yard mark since his rookie campaign. The Florida product has been a thorn in the side of fantasy managers, finishing outside the top 12 tight ends in each of the last three seasons. In 2024, he totaled 47 catches, 602 yards, and four touchdowns en route to finishing as the overall TE15. A change of scenery could be exactly what Pitts needs, and there are plenty of tight end-needy teams that would surely welcome an upgrade.

    Christian Kirk May 30 12:03am CT
    Christian Kirk

    Houston Texans WR Christian Kirk 'has been everything we could ask for (so far this offseason),' according to head coach DeMeco Ryans. Teammate Nico Collins referred to Kirk as a 'slot magician.' 'You talk about a guy who is dedicated to getting better. He has honed in on his craft and he's leading our young guys. He's a hard worker, he shows up every day with the right attitude working hard and showing guys how it's done,' Ryans said.

    Fantasy Spin: Kirk has one year left on the four-year contract he signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars in March of 2022. It seems likely that is how long the 28-year-old will stay in Houston after the team drafted Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel in the second and third round, respectively, in April's draft. With that said, it is not out of the question that Kirk plays so well in 2025 that the Texans bring him back for another year as insurance for Higgins and/or Noel.

    Christian McCaffrey

    San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (Achilles, knee) 'looked electric' during OTAs Thursday, May 29, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic.

    Fantasy Spin: After battling injuries last year, all the reports on McCaffrey continue to be positive about the veteran back heading into 2025. The injury concerns could cause him to slide to middle or end of the first round of fantasy drafts, making him a bargain if he returns to his 2023 form.

    Chazz Surratt May 29 8:20pm CT
    Chazz Surratt

    According to the team, the San Francisco 49ers have signed free-agent inside linebacker Chazz Surratt to an undisclosed contract. Linebacker DaShaun White was waived in a corresponding move. Surratt was a former third-round pick of the Minnesota Vikings back in 2021, but he spent just one season with the team before finding his way to the New York Jets roster. He'd occupied a spot there over the prior three seasons. In 41 career games (five starts), the North Carolina product has notched 19 tackles, with all but one coming in 17 2024 appearances. He figures to spend most of his time as a rotational piece behind incumbent starter Fred Warner, and will likely be a member of their special teams unit as well.

    Cedric Tillman May 29 5:30pm CT
    Cedric Tillman

    Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (concussion) was taking part in voluntary organized team activities and was running with the first-team offense on Wednesday, according to The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Dan Labbe. It's a good sign for Tillman after he finished last season on Injured Reserve and missed the final six games due to a lingering concussion. The 25-year-old former third-rounder (74th overall) in 2023 out of Tennessee showed improvement in Year 2 before his head injury, catching 29 of 49 targets for 339 yards and his first three NFL touchdowns in 11 games (six starts). While Diontae Johnson could have something to say about it, Tillman is currently position well for WR2 duties in 2025 behind Jerry Jeudy, although Cleveland's uncertain quarterback situation doesn't exactly bode well for Tillman's chances to make an impact in fantasy.

    Michael Woods II May 29 5:30pm CT
    Michael Woods II

    Cleveland Browns wide receiver Michael Woods II (knee) was seen taking part in Wednesday's voluntary organized team activities. Woods did not play in the team's Week 18 regular-season finale last year against the Baltimore Ravens due to a knee injury, but the 25-year-old appears to be fully recovered and a full-go heading into the 2025 season this fall. The former sixth-rounder (202nd overall) in 2022 out of Oklahoma had only five catches for 45 yards in 10 games (no starts) in his rookie season in 2022, didn't play at all in 2023, and caught seven of 17 targets for 65 yards and no touchdowns in just five games (two starts) last season. The Browns have opportunity in their receiving corps behind Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman, but Woods will merely be competing with Diontae Johnson, Jamari Thrash, David Bell and DeAndre Carter for a depth role. He's not on the fantasy radar right now.

    D.K. Metcalf May 29 5:20pm CT
    D.K. Metcalf

    The Pittsburgh Steelers have had preliminary conversations with multiple teams about potentially adding another playmaker on offense to complement wide receiver DK Metcalf, multiple sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. The Steelers are believed to be motivated to get something done at some point, even though there's still plenty of time before the Week 1 regular-season opener. Pittsburgh could have up to 12 picks in the 2026 NFL draft, so they have plenty of draft capital to get something done. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported earlier on Thursday that the Steelers and Miami Dolphins are involved in talks surrounding tight end Jonnu Smith, even though Pittsburgh already has Pat Freiermuth at the position. The Steelers traded receiver George Pickens to Dallas three weeks ago and are now looking for a pass-catcher to fill the void next to Metcalf. Perhaps they are trying to sweeten things for free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who has yet to commit to playing in the Steel City in 2025.
