Lions | Aidan Hutchinson impressing his position coach Fri May 16, 03:51 PM
Detroit Lions DE Aidan Hutchinson (leg) looked 'really good' in his return to the practice field this week, according to defensive line coach Kacy Rodgers. Hutchinson was lost for the season in mid-October after suffering a broken tibia and fibula.
| Footballguys view: Hutchinson's fifth-year option was picked up earlier this year, and reporters around the team believe an extension is happening sooner rather than later. He's a star on the field when healthy, but Hutchinson's season was cut short last year in Week 6 with a fractured fibula. It sounds like he's doing good in his recovery, and we'll learn more about his status for the start of the regular season in training camp. |

Bengals | Trey Hendrickson sounds off on coach Wed May 14, 11:55 AM
Cincinnati Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson said he was disappointed in a text message exchange with head coach Zac Taylor, who threatened to fine him for skipping mandatory minicamp in June. 'A little bit transpired between me and Zac,' Hendrickson said. 'We've tried to keep it as least amount as personal as possible, but at some point, in this process, it becomes personal.' 'I don't think it was necessary,' Hendrickson said of Taylor's text. 'I think we should have all hoped for the best until proven otherwise. Other things have transpired like the importance of me being here in OTAs doesn't seem to be respected. I think I've carried a lot of respect. I don't mean to insinuate anything about anyone's character, but that was disappointing. I think that was the word of the offseason.'
| Footballguys view: Hendrickson, who led the NFL in sacks last season, is one of the NFL's best defensive players and wants to be paid as such. He and the Bengals have yet to be able to come to a close on terms of what his next deal should look like, and personal issues with the coach won't make that easier. Although he showed up at team headquarters to make his case to the media, Hendrickson did not declare whether he plans to attend mandatory minicamp. Nor did he discuss sitting out of training camp or games, for that matter. For the most part, Hendrickson refrained from making any declarations as he hopes to get his situation resolved as soon as possible. However, he confirmed he wouldn't play in the upcoming season on his current deal. He is scheduled to make a base salary of $15.8 million with a salary cap hit of $18.6 million this season. This means the Bengals and Hendrickson will have to find a middle ground somewhere for a long-term extension to be reached by Week 1. |

Link to story Bengals | Trey Hendrickson willing to sit out 2025 season Tue May 13, 02:19 PM
Cincinnati Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson told reporters on Tuesday, May 13, that he will not play this season under his current contract. Hendrickson is scheduled to earn $15.8 million in base salary in 2025 - the final season of a four-year contract.
| Footballguys view: The Bengals' star pass rusher appeared at the team's voluntary workouts Tuesday -- not in uniform -- and addressed reporters, a day after he released a statement to ESPN's Adam Schefter saying the team has cut off contract talks with him. Hendrickson said Tuesday he's disappointed with the Bengals' lack of communication and that the situation has become "personal." However, he indicated that his relationship with the team could still be repaired. Hendrickson, 30, is entering the final year of his contract and is coming off his best season in the NFL. He led the league with 17.5 sacks in 2024. We'll continue to monitor this story. |

Bengals | No movement on Trey Hendrickson extension Mon May 12, 01:19 PM
Cincinnati Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson told ESPN on Monday, May 12, that 'no communication has taken place between my camp and the organization post-draft.'
| Footballguys view: Hendrickson, 30, is entering the final year of his contract and is coming off his best season in the NFL. He led the league with 17.5 sacks last season and was named to The AP All-Pro team. He's made the Pro Bowl in each of his four seasons with Cincinnati. In 2023, he was given a one-year extension on the four-year, $60 million deal he signed as a free agent in 2021. Last offseason, he requested a trade after the team opted not to give him a new deal. He ultimately reported for voluntary workouts. Hendrickson is set to earn $15.8 million in base salary this season. The Bengals will begin organized team activities later this month. Hendrickson isn't the only defensive end on the roster looking to resolve a contract issue. Shemar Stewart, the 17th pick in this year's draft, did not participate in last week's rookie minicamp because his contract remained unsigned. |

Cardinals | Jordan Burch signed Sun May 11, 11:32 AM
Arizona Cardinals seventh-round pick LB Jordan Burch signed a four-year, $4,337,892 contract prior to the start of rookie minicamp. The deal includes a signing bonus of $137,892 and his salary cap charge is $874,473. His base salaries are $840,000 for 2025, $1.005 million for 2026, $1.12 million for 2027 and $1.235 million for 2028. Crawford has a full split for the first two seasons of his deal, meaning his salary would decrease to $490,000 in 2025 and $540,000 in 2026 if he is placed on the Reserve/Injured list.

NFL | Jadeveon Clowney not retiring Sun May 11, 09:14 AM
Free-agent DE Jadeveon Clowney (Panthers) said that he wants to continue his playing career, several days after being released by the Carolina Panthers. General manager Dan Morgan had tried to gauge trade interest in Clowney from other teams before and after the 2025 NFL Draft but was unable to finalize a deal. The Panthers had offered him a chance to remain with the organization if he agreed to take a pay cut but he declined. According to OverTheCap.com, Clowney's release frees up $7.8 million of salary cap space for Carolina, with $6 million of dead money.
| Footballguys view: The Panthers released Clowney a few days ago can still make plays as a reserve rusher. Clowney compiled 5.5 sacks and knocked down four passes with the Panthers in 2024. At some point this offseason, and perhaps closer to training camp, Clowney should find a new team - perhaps on a contender this time. |

Chargers | LAC agrees to deals with seven picks Fri May 9, 04:42 PM
Los Angeles Chargers third-round draft choice DT Jamaree Caldwell, fourth-round draft choice LB Kyle Kennard, fifth-round draft choice WR KeAndre Lambert-Smith, fifth-round draft choice TE Oronde Gadsden II, sixth-round draft choice OG Branson Taylor, sixth-round draft choice S R.J. Mickens and seventh-round draft choice CB Trikweze Bridges signed four-year contracts with the Chargers Friday, May 9. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Orande Gadsen II is a player with a freakish athletic skill set. He's a weapon as a tight end, and Gadsen can use a blend of size and speed to make plays. Gadsen will learn behind Will Dissly and Tyler Conklin in his rookie season, but he's got the upside to one day be a starter. |
Saints | Five rookie under contract Fri May 9, 04:22 PM

Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Neal is the type of runner who reminded some in the scouting community of Joe Mixon. He's a late-round pick, so Neal is not a given for the 53-man roster in New Orleans. However, he's got a three-down skill set and could be a starter in the league. That's why we're monitoring him in super deep dynasty formats. |

Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Kyle Williams is a quick receiver with speed to flip the field on any catch. He'll have a chance to become a favorite target for QB Drake Maye this year. Williams begins his pro career as the no.3 receiver on the depth chart behind Stefon Diggs and DeMario Douglas. |

| Footballguys view: Hawes is a player we will monitor in deep dynasty formats. A former high school linebacker, Hawes was mostly a blocker in college at Yale. He needs to develop as a route runner and we'll see if the Bills want to use him as more than a blocker. Prawther is an outside receiver with good ball skills, but he's not afraid to mix things up in the middle of the field. |
Dolphins | Miami locks up five picks Fri May 9, 11:31 AM
Miami Dolphins fifth-round pick DT Jordan X. Phillips, fifth-round pick CB Jason Marshall Jr., fifth-round pick S Dante Trader Jr., sixth-round pick RB Ollie Gordon II and seventh-round pick DT Zeek Biggers signed their rookie four-year deals Friday, May 9. Phillips, Marshall and Trader, all selected in the fifth round, will each total about $4.6 million on the scale. Gordon, a sixth-round pick, is due to make more than $4.4 million. Ewers and Biggers, as seventh-rounders, are set to make around $4.3 million.
| Footballguys view: Gordon is a player we appreciate because of his size/athleticism combination. He's a big-bodied back (226 pounds) with the movement skills of a smaller back. In the NFL, Gordon needs to show the ability to use his size as a weapon in a power game. The rookie is competing for a reserve spot this year behind De'Von Achane and Jaylen Wright. |
Colts | Six Colts picks inked Fri May 9, 11:24 AM
Indianapolis Colts third-round pick CB Justin Walley, fourth-round pick OT Jalen Travis, fifth-round pick RB DJ Giddens, sixth-round pick QB Riley Leonard, sixth-round pick DT Tim Smith and seventh-round pick S Hunter Wohler.
| Footballguys view: We like the upside of Giddens in deep dynasty formats. He's a slashing runner who doesn't waste a ton of motion with the ball in his hands. Giddens needs to prove himself better as a pass catcher (too many drops), and perhaps add some more muscle to his frame. He will compete for a reserve spot behind Jonathan Taylor and Khalil Herbert. |
