Lawrence has started 13 of the 25 games he’s appeared in since entering the league in 2020, totaling 30 tackles and four TFLs. He started all five games he appeared in last season before a shoulder injury ended his campaign. Lawrence could provide added depth along another team’s defensive line now that he’s been released.

Faulk’s rookie deal is worth $17.1 million and is fully guaranteed. The Titans traded up with the Bills to land Faulk at the end of the first round, giving them the fifth-year option at the end of his deal. At 6'6/285, Faulk is a big-bodied defensive end who can defend the run and rush the passer. Robert Saleh will need to get the most out of him if he is going to turn the Titans’ defense around in 2026.

Koo got a tryout with the Saints after the NFL Draft but did not land a contract in The Big Easy. Now he’ll compete with Lenny Krieg and Cade York for the kicker job in New York. Aftering being cut by the Giants and Falcons in 2025, this may be Koo’s last chance to make an NFL roster ahead of Week 1.

Campbell has yet to officially announce his retirement, but he will likely release a statement in the coming days. Assuming he is hanging up the cleats, Campbell played seven seasons in the pros. He appeared in one game for the Cowboys in 2025 and did not record any stats. Campbell looked like an NFL-caliber slot receiver early in his career, but injuries constantly got in the way. He finished his career with 123 catches for 1,117 yards and six scores.

Flannigan-Fowles appeared in 10 games for the Giants last year and was credited with three starts. He totaled one sack, three TFLs, and 33 combined tackles. Flannigan-Fowles also logged over 100 special teams snaps for the sixth time in as many pro seasons. He will be a solid depth option for the Bills.

Mauigoa’s deal will be worth roughly $31 million over four years. It also includes a fully guaranteed fifth-year team option. This leaves only Arvell Reese unsigned from the Giants’ 2026 class. Mauigoa was a career right tackle at Miami, but he’s expected to start at right guard as a rookie.

Chargers GM Joe Hortiz said both players were ahead of schedule when asked about them a week before the NFL Draft. Slater suffered a season-ending ruptured a patellar tendon last August and did not play a snap in 2025. Alt was unable to recover from a high-ankle sprain during the season and finished the year on injured reserve. All signs point to the Chargers having their elite tackle duo healthy for the start of the year. With an improved offensive line and Mike McDaniel on the headset, this is truly a make-or-break year for Justin Herbert.

According to the Indy Star’s Joel A. Erickson, Jones did everything in individual drills. That’s a good sign for Jones, who is a little under seven months removed from the torn Achilles tendon he suffered in Week 14. He still has two months until training camp, putting him well on track to be ready by Week 1. The next step will be participating in team drills. For now, Riley Leonard and Anthony Richardson will get some extra reps in practice, though it doesn’t look like either player will be needed in Jones’ place to start the year.

The update comes directly from the DA’s office. They note that the standard for an arrest in this case is probable cause. The DA’s Office, however, applies a higher standard. The evidence against Jacobs did not meet that standard and he was released from custody, though this does not mean charges can’t be filed at a later date. Jacobs was initially arrested on Tuesday and booked in jail for battery, criminal damage to property, disorderly conduct, strangulation and suffocation, and intimidation of a victim. Jacobs’ lawyers immediately put out a statement denying the accusations. For now, it’s simply a waiting game. Jacobs could end up on the commissioner’s exempt list, but the league has generally erred on the side of letting the legal process play out before stepping in.

Achane underwent a clean-up procedure on his shoulder during the offseason. He has been practicing in a limited capacity recently but hasn’t been fully cleared yet. Achane told reporters he has regained his strength in his shoulder, meaning the team is likely just being cautious with his return to action. Given that they signed him to a four-year, $68 million contract extension this offseason, it’s hard to imagine the shoulder being even a minor issue by the time camp starts in two months. Barring a surprise, Achane should enter the regular season as a locked-in fantasy RB1.

Charles, 29, will join the Seahawks wideout room after a couple seasons with the Jets. Charles hasn’t played in a regular season game since 2024 due to an ACL injury, and has been used primarily as a special teams player. He does not have a catch over 25 NFL regular season games.
