Fowler, who has bounced around the league in recent years, had 10.5 sacks just two years ago with the Commanders and will now join a Seattle defense that last season pressured the passer at one of the league’s highest rates. Fowler, 31, will likely play on a prove-it deal with the Super Bowl champs in 2026. He could be used in a rotational role in the Seahawks’ loaded front seven. Fowler has 58.5 sacks over 159 NFL games.

Henderson’s return ability likely buys him a chance to stick on the roster, but with Rashid Shaheed re-signed, the Seahawks don’t necessarily need Henderson to field a great return game. It’s hard to see much fantasy upside here with Jake Bobo back and Tory Horton likely to recover from his shin injuries in the near-term future.

Free agent RB Elijah Mitchell attended as well. Herbert appeared in three games with the Jets last year, rushing 16 times for 52 yards and earned three targets. Mitchell logged zero touches and earned one target, playing for the Patriots. The Eagles already have five running backs on the roster, so both players face uphill battles to snag a roster spot.

Back in May 2025, Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Milroe “will not be used in the same fashion as Taysom Hill,” but in August, Macdonald said regular season game plans would include plays for Milroe. It turns out, the former statement was far more accurate. Milroe logged just three snaps all year, and zero after Week 5. Seahawks TE AJ Barner functioned as the team’s Tush Push specialist. If the Seahawks really do intend to use Milroe as an offensive weapon, it would be very difficult for him to produce fantasy-relevant numbers with QB-only eligibility. He could, however, infringe upon the backfield’s red zone workload. Keeping an eye on his preseason usage will be worthwhile, but at this time, we have not seen enough from him to view him as a legitimate threat to the backfield’s carry share.

Fowler talked to league executives, coaches, and scouts about every team’s haul of rookies from the draft, so this may not come directly from the Seahawks. Still, it means that at least some people around the league don’t think Price will be a three-down back early in the year. Price struggled in pass protection and only caught 15 passes over three years at Notre Dame. He’s an explosive runner between the tackles, but his limitations are readily apparent on passing downs. Price will likely split work with George Holani out of the gates, making him more of an RB3 for Week 1.

Bryant is a former fourth-round pick of the Browns, spending the first four years of his career in Cleveland and the last two years with the Raiders and Texans. As a receiver, Bryant is yet to surpass 300 yards receiving in a single season with the bulk of his production coming in tandem with David Njoku in Cleveland. He can line up inline and in the slot while his blocking is also a serviceable trait. Bryant was depth for the Texans last season, seeing just four targets in the regular season but five targets in the post-season amid injuries to the tight end room. The Seahawks will add him as depth to a room featuring A.J. Barner, Elijah Arroyo, and Eric Saubert.

“Neither side is committed to it, but both I believe are expected to make it happen ... It’s not going to be hard to get done. The Eagles are open to moving him, the Patriots want him, and I believe in the end it will involve a future first-round draft pick. My guess is 2028,” Schefter told the man who only wears tank tops. It makes sense that the 2027 first-round pick would be off limits as it’s expected to be a much better and deeper draft class. The Athletic’s Chad Graff filed a post-draft 53-man roster projection in which Kayshon Boutte is a “substitution for ... Brown” and believes Boutte is the “most likely receiver to head to Philadelphia in a trade.” We still have another month before this can finally just happen.

Gonzalez will get a one-year, $18.1 million deal for 2027. The Patriots have reportedly been in extension talks with him at various points this offseason, so while nothing has gotten done yet, it’s certainly likely to be a point of discussion ahead of the season. New England’s No. 1 corner has developed into one of the best in the NFL in his first three seasons with the club.

It was almost a three-month stay on New England’s offseason roster. Seventh-rounder Jam Miller appears to have taken Mitchell’s spot on the depth chart, though Terrell Jennings is likely the third back in the pecking order behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.

Akers logged just nine snaps for the Seahawks in 2025, per PFF, and did not garner a touch. The veteran running back has become a journeyman in the league since being traded from the Rams to the Vikings in 2023. Akers has made multiple stops to other teams over that span, including returning to the Vikings in both 2024 and 2025. He’ll turn 27 this offseason and could land somewhere with a chance to compete for a roster spot this offseason, but his days as a viable fantasy option continue to appear long over.
