Kyler Murray Seeks Clean Exit as Cardinals Weigh Breakup

Kyler Murray’s camp wants the Cardinals to release him so he can enter free agency, signaling a likely split amid questions about his work ethic, leadership and post-injury mobility. Arizona is weighing options to clear cap space, including a potential trade, while evaluating QB alternatives; possible destinations mentioned include the Jets, Dolphins, Steelers and Chiefs. Jacoby Brissett’s strong showing in Murray’s absence adds to Arizona’s QB considerations, and Murray remains under two years on a $230 million contract.

Malik Willis Could Trigger a Premium QB Market in Free Agency

Amid a thin 2026 quarterback class, Malik Willis is the top free-agent option and could spark a bidding war, with Ian Rapoport suggesting a contract in the $30–35 million per year range—well above Justin Fields' $20M. Willis’ three Packers starts showed upside (972 yards, 6 TDs, 0 INT, plus 2 rushing TDs) but a small sample size. The Steelers, once linked to Fields, may be out if price stays high, while only a few other teams have solid alternatives.

Broncos Probe Linebacker Talent at the Combine

Denver Broncos used the NFL Scouting Combine to interview several top linebacker prospects, including Ohio State’s Sonny Styles, Texas Tech’s Jacob Rodriguez, Missouri’s Jake Golday, and Josiah Trotter, signaling a heavy offseason focus on the position as veterans Alex Singleton and Justin Strnad hit free agency and Dre Greenlaw battled injuries. The team could address the need via free agency, re-signings, or a strong draft haul, with Rodriguez, Golday, and Trotter viewed as viable Day 2 options and Styles likely off the table due to a top‑15 projection. Broncos also reportedly spoke with other linebackers like CJ Allen, Anthony Hill Jr, and Kyle Louis, indicating multiple potential picks in a loaded draft.

Hortiz at the 2026 Combine: Edge rushers, O-line, and McDaniel’s impact shaping Chargers’ offseason

At the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine, Chargers GM Joe Hortiz stressed protecting Justin Herbert and upgrading the offense and O-line, praised Mike McDaniel as a high-energy hire who’ll be more involved in the draft, and signaled willingness to pursue multiple edge-rushers (Khalil Mack and Odafe Oweh) without tagging anyone. He noted Zion Johnson’s potentially strong free-agent market and discussed contract talks, while also introducing Chris O’Leary as the new defensive coordinator and play-caller, highlighting a zone-based approach that may shift how the Chargers evaluate players this offseason.

Eagles signal cautious offseason: Roseman aims for steady build over splashy moves

The Eagles appear set to pursue a cautious 2026 offseason, targeting free-agent additions that won’t hurt compensatory-pick calculations while keeping their core draft picks and players in place. Howie Roseman emphasized minimizing costly splashes and prioritizing players they’ve drafted; current chatter centers on Reed Blankenship and Nakobe Dean’s futures, potential A.J. Brown trade buzz, and even a hypothetical Tanner McKee–Jets scenario. Philadelphia also hired Sean Mannion as offensive coordinator after a wide-ranging search, with ongoing coaching and staff discussions shaping the plan ahead of the Combine.

Chiefs’ Breece Hall pursuit stalls as Jets cement backfield

The Kansas City Chiefs hoped to upgrade their running game by signing free-agent Breece Hall, but Jets GM Darren Mougey indicated Hall will stay with the Jets next season (likely via extension or franchise tag), forcing the Chiefs to pivot to other options like Kenneth Walker III, Travis Etienne, or the Notre Dame prospect Jeremiyah Love, each with trade-offs across cost, fit, or draft need.

Dolphins Keep QB Options Open While Trading Possibilities Loom

At the NFL Scouting Combine, Dolphins GM Jon-Eric Sullivan said everything is on the table for Tua Tagovailoa and Minkah Fitzpatrick, including trades, while confirming Jaylen Waddle and De’Von Achane will likely remain. The team isn’t likely to cut Tagovailoa pre-June 1, but a post-June 1 release remains possible with a large cap hit. They’re exploring quarterback options through free agency and the draft (with potential targets like Malik Willis and Quinn Ewers) and expect to draft a QB this year to foster competition. The Dolphins moved on from Tyreek Hill and Bradley Chubb to get younger and cheaper, plan to sign veterans on minimum deals rather than big free-agent splashes, and will continue evaluating roster depth and edge/corner options as part of building a foundation rather than seeking quick fixes.

Ravens Pursue Market-Setting Deal to Keep Tyler Linderbaum

The Ravens have offered center Tyler Linderbaum a market-setting contract and want him back, with coaches praising him as one of the league’s top interior linemen and analysts projecting a robust market for his services as free agency approaches; franchise tags look unlikely, and if he leaves Baltimore could face three new starting offensive linemen when the legal tampering period begins March 9 and the new league year starts March 11.

NFL Combine 2026: GMs outline re-signs, trade chatter and draft plans

At the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine, GMs and coaches field questions about futures, free agency and the draft, with notable notes across teams: the Buccaneers want to re-sign Mike Evans, the Texans say they won’t trade C.J. Stroud, the Chiefs aim to add run-game explosiveness while keeping Kelce options open, and the Ravens pursue a Lamar Jackson extension after making a market-setting offer to Tyler Linderbaum. The Raiders are listening on the No. 1 pick (eyeing Fernando Mendoza), the Dolphins signal a QB-first draft plan while not actively moving De’Von Achane or Jaylen Waddle, the Bears have heard trade calls on Tyson Bagent, and Rodgers chatter continues around the Steelers; Patriots updates on Stefon Diggs and Will Campbell are also in focus amid Eliot Wolf’s remarks.
