All the free agency deals and other moves around the league
All the free agency deals and other moves around the league
The new NFL league year doesn’t kick off until Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET, but the chaos of the offseason is in full swing.
We’ve had stars receive franchise tags (Tee Higgins and Trey Smith), Pro Bowlers get traded (Geno Smith, Deebo Samuel and DK Metcalf), franchise quarterbacks receive pay raises (Matthew Stafford and Josh Allen), All-Pro edge rushers land record-breaking extensions (Maxx Crosby and Myles Garrett) and a whole lot more. And that was before the NFL’s legal tampering period began at noon ET on Monday!
Since teams have been able to negotiate with other clubs’ impending three agents, several high-profile deals have already been agreed to, with the biggest ones being the Seahawks signing Sam Darnold on a three-year contract worth $100.5 million and the Jets signing Justin Fields on a two-year deal worth $40 million. Elsewhere, the Patriots added several key defenders for new head coach Mike Vrabel, the Titans and Bears continued fortifying their offensive lines and the Chiefs secured another offensive weapon for Patrick Mahomes.
From blockbuster moves to bargain-bin shopping, we’ve got you covered below with a running tracker of every team’s 2024 additions, including external signings and trade acquisitions. For more info on all the free agency deals and rumors, click here.
