Musgrave’s 38 receiving yards mark his second-highest total of the season and come on the heals of the 4/52/0 receiving line he had last week. Musgrave has yet to find the end zone this season and is averaging just 2.0 targets per game. He won’t be on the fantasy radar for Week 16 against the Ravens.

Taylor ran 39 times for 183 yards and a touchdown with the 49ers in 2024. He suffered a shoulder injury in that season, which would eventually require surgery. The procedure knocked him out of the 2025 season entirely. He will not return to San Francisco as a depth option and a special teamer.

Johnson has become mostly a special-teams player at this stage of his career, as his 321 snaps on Vegas’ 2025 defense were the most he’s played since 2021.

The running back takes a pay cut to a base salary of $5.5 million. This move quashes the fantasy value of Jordan Mason, who was looking like he’d head the committee in 2026 by a wide margin. Mason still may wind up leading the Vikings in carries given how often Jones gets hurt, but Jones will probably see at least half the snaps here after agreeing to stay. Jones is more of a high-end RB3 at this stage of his career, as entering his age-32 season he’s started to leave a concerning number of games with injuries and spent time on injured reserve last year.

Williams posted a minor breakout season in 2024 with three sacks. His part-time role got even smaller in 2025 and he notched just one sack. He will be fighting for a roster spot in Atlanta this summer.

Byard likely limited his market a bit by only shopping his services to contenders, but it’s still a coup for the Patriots to add an AP All-Pro first team safety for just $9 million. Entering his age-33 season, Byard has yet to really face any kind of wall by PFF’s grading and has remained capable of playing a ton of snaps. He mostly operates as the deep safety, but has had plenty of work in the box as well and is more than capable of playing in it. Byard will likely be their starting deep safety in 2026.

The Ravens rarely started him after the first month of the season, but Awuzie had a bounceback year in PFF’s metrics, finishing with a 76.1 PFF coverage grade. Entering his age-31 season, Awuzie would be a risky bet as a full-time starter for Baltimore, but a reasonable depth piece.

Mitchell played just 73 snaps last year and hasn’t topped 500 snaps in a season yet since being drafted in the fourth round in 2022. He’ll return to a backup role on the Jets offensive line.

As the name implies, Stoll snaps the ball far. He has been doing so in Seattle for the past three seasons and will continue to do so over the next two seasons.

Clemons can make another million dollars via incentives. The former Jet totaled 4.5 sacks in 2024 as a full-time starter. His role declined last year and he fell to just one sack. A three-year deal suggests the Colts plan to give him more reps in 2026.

Jones started three games and played in 14 for the Seahawks as their swing tackle in 2025. He returns for the same role in 2026. The soon-to-be 29-year-old posted a solid 73.1 PFF blocking grade in 261 snaps last season.
