Edwards joined the Chiefs on a one-year deal last offseason. He served as the team’s third safety early in the year but took on a starting role for the final five weeks of the regular season. Edwards held down the starting gig throughout the playoffs en route to his second Super Bowl victory. He finished the season with five pass breakups, one sack, and one interception. Edwards also recovered two fumbles and took one to the house in Week 18. After gutting their secondary for cap reasons ahead of free agency, the Bills could view Edwards as a starting option for the 2024 season.

He didn’t sign until late August after rehabbing a torn Achilles in Week 10. JJones was an emergency signing for the Texans, but they followed up on it by trading for Kayshon Boutte. The Boutte deal made Jones’ path to a roster spot tenuous. He’ll look to catch on elsewhere.

This move was expected. Parsons himself said a few weeks ago that a Week 6 return was his “most optimistic” timeline. A spot on the reserve PUP list means Parsons must miss at least the first four months of the season. He is still recovering from the torn ACL he suffered in Week 15 of the 2025 season. Parsons should still be a force on the defensive front when he’s back, but that won’t happen until at least October.

Tuttle began the 2025 season playing for the Titans and closed it playing for the Commanders, who released him today. He logged just 11 tackles and failed to pressure the opposing passer once.

The Pats signed Hudson to a one-year deal in the offseason. He appeared in 11 games for the Giants last year, making two starts. Hudson has 60 career appearances and 19 starts. He should be able to find a new home over the next week or two as rosters shake out.

The incentive-heavy deal is worth a maximum of $30 million for the longtime defensive stalwart, who comes out of a two-year retirement to chase another ring with the Rams. Donald worked out at the team facility multiple times throughout the offseason, making the signing less shocking than it otherwise would have been had there been no ties between the two sides earlier this summer. The Rams now carry one of the top defenses in the league after the acquisitions of Myles Garrett, Jaylen Watson, and Trent McDuffie this offseason, in addition to coming off a season in which they led the league in scoring at 30 points per game. The betting favorites to win the Super Bowl in February gain another weapon.

However, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports it’s a roster maneuver, and that special teams ace Berrios is expected to re-join the team before Week 1. We will take Schefter at his word.

Slovis needed to unseat QB Gardner Minshew or QB Carson Beck to make the roster. He was unable to do so. He could return to Arizona via the practice squad.

9NEWS’ Mike Klis writes that Joly “clearly” could use a redshirt year, which isn’t exactly great news for his dynasty prospects. We’ll see if another team wants to take a chance on him rather than letting him join Denver’s practice squad. Joly was a fifth-round pick this past year and it’s rare for teams to cut picks this early, but Denver’s roster is loaded.

Keegan earned a 65.3 PFF run-blocking grade in one game with the Eagles in 2024. He played just six snaps on offense with the Cowboys last year.

Whittington is a 24-year-old undrafted free agent rookie. He will likely be given the chance to make a practice squad in Houston or elsewhere.
