Coogan (6’5/311) is a veteran interior lineman with over 2,600 career snaps whose leadership, intelligence and positional versatility make him one of the steadier high-floor options in the 2026 class. He played in a National Championship game at Notre Dame before transferring to Indiana and winning a Natty this season. Coogan delivered his best season with an 84.0 PFF pass-block grade and 98.9 percent pass-block efficiency, allowing 0 sacks and just 10 pressures on 483 pass-blocking snaps. A middling athlete who recorded a lackluster 6.80 RAS, he wins with disciplined hand usage, core strength and a wide, stable base, consistently re-setting his hands and maintaining leverage to control reps in both gap and inside-zone concepts. Coogan’s football IQ shows up in his communication, timing and ability to process second-level threats, making him a natural fit to call protections and handle interior adjustments. However, his inconsistent pad level and average redirect ability can lead to issues against longer, more explosive interior defenders who can cross his face or stress his edges. With starting experience at both guard and center and a polished, pro-ready skill set, Coogan has early starting potential for an organization that values intelligence and technical execution over raw athletic upside.

Lane will compete for a starting role in three-wide receiver sets with fourth-round pick WR Elijah Sarratt, and veteran WRs Devontez Walker and LaJohntay Wester. Lane (6’4/200) caught 49 passes for 745 yards and four touchdowns in his final college season. It could be tough for him to return FLEX value even if he wins the No. 3 wide receiver role.

Singleton has decent odds of making the roster as the Titans’ RB3 and special teams returner. Where he goes from there remains to be seen. He flashed high-end, dual-threat traits in college, but ceded snaps to the reliable rusher, RB Kaytron Allen. Singleton’s boom-bust style has its strengths and weaknesses.

Fehoko has played zero snaps since entering the league as a fourth-round pick in 2023. The Colts also waived LB Joseph Vaughn and released OG Bill Murray. OT Jack Wilson was waived as well, though he will revert to the Colts’ injured reserve list if he clears waivers.

Per Chappell, Colts general manager Chris Ballard said on Saturday that he “hadn’t given too much thought” to the fifth-year option that would have paid Richardson $22.483 million in 2027. Apparently, Ballard didn’t need long to pass on an extra year with Richardson. The 23-year-old quarterback received permission from the team to seek a trade, and as of Sunday, the Colts had not received any inquiries. Releasing Richardson at some point currently seems to be the most likely outcome for Indianapolis. The deadline to exercise team options for the 2023 rookie class is tomorrow.

This is encouraging, though Shanahan added that he doesn’t want to say Kittle is “on track” to play, but he knows Kittle is “shooting for” a Week 1 return. One month ago, 49ers general manager John Lynch said he is “hopeful” that Kittle will be able to play in Week 1. It sounds like Kittle should return early in the 2026 season, even if Week 1 is out of reach. If they start him on the physically unable to perform list, he could return in Week 5. For the time being, it feels safe to say that he should be back by Week 5 or sooner. Anything can happen, though.

Davis, 27, appeared in just two games last year, totaling three tackles and one quarterback sack. The Commanders released him in October 2024 after drafting him in 2021 as a first-round pick. Davis simply hasn’t developed during his time in the NFL. He might be able to get a training camp audition elsewhere this summer.

The Ravens signed fifth-round TE Josh Cuevas as well. Hibner’s deal is worth $5 million, while Cuevas’ is worth $4.6 million. Hibner totaled 55 catches, 804 yards and eight touchdowns over his last two seasons at SMU. The two rookie tight ends will compete with veteran TE Durham Smythe for the No. 2 tight end role.

Per Spotrac, the deal is worth $4.62 million and includes a $379,480 signing bonus. Randall is the team owner, Steve Bisciotti’s first handpicked player. He converted from wide receiver to running back for Clemson’s 2025 season and posted a 168/814/10 rushing line and a 36/254/3 receiving line.

Sarratt will compete with third-round rookie WR Ja’Kobi Lane, plus incumbent WRs Devontez Walker and LaJohntay Wester for No. 3 wide receiver duties. Per Spotrac, Sarratt’s deal is worth more than $5.4 million and includes a $1.18 million signing bonus. Sarratt scored 15 touchdowns during Indiana’s college football championship run last year.

Ioane gets a fully guaranteed $24.2 million deal with a $14.1 million signing bonus and a fifth-year team option. Ioane is expected to start in year one. He primarily played left guard at Penn State, but should be able to line up at right guard, if need be. Vega (6'4/320) earned an 87.0 PFF pass-blocking grade and a 78.6 PFF run-blocking grade last year.
