  • Dan Chisena WR | CAR

    Panthers' Dan Chisena: Returning to Carolina

    Chisena re-signed with the Panthers on a one-year contract Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Chisena began the 2024 season in Arizona before joining Carolina's practice squad mid-October, ultimately appearing in six games with the Panthers. He secured three of four targets for 37 yards in that span. Now, Chisena will work to put together a strong offseason and earn another reserve role on offense during the 2025 campaign.

  • Khadarel Hodge WR | ATL

    Falcons' KhaDarel Hodge: Returns to Atlanta on two-year deal

    Hodge is re-signing with the Falcons on a two-year, $6 million contract Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Hodge rejoins Atlanta, where he's spent the last three years handling a depth role on offense while contributing as a key special-teamer. He's suited up for all 17 regular-season games in each of those years, having secured seven of 12 targets for 131 yards and one score in 2024.

  • Cooper Kupp WR | LAR

    Cooper Kupp: Cut by Rams

    The Rams will release Kupp on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Unable to find a trade partner, the Rams will instead make Kupp a free agent right at the start of the new league year. He'll likely have plenty of suitors, with Peter Schrager of FOX Sports already reporting that at least three teams are interested in Kupp. He's never averaged less than 57.9 yards per game over the course of a season, but Kupp missed at least five games each of the past three seasons and finished 2024 with career lows for yards per catch (10.6) and yards per target (7.1). He'll turn 32 years old in June, making it unlikely that his next contract contains any guaranteed money beyond 2025 or 2026.

  • Jalen Reagor WR | LAC

    Chargers' Jalen Reagor: Staying in L.A.

    The Chargers will re-sign Reagor.

    Reagor played in eight games with the Chargers in 2024, catching seven of his 12 targets for 100 yards. He also took three carries for -3 yards. He projects to rotate in sparingly to run mostly clearing routes in 2025, though he could also contribute on special teams.

  • Seahawks' Marquez Valdes-Scantling: Finds favorable landing spot

    Valdes-Scantling agreed Wednesday with the Seahawks on a one-year deal worth up to $5.5 million, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Valdes-Scantling reunites with former Saints offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak in Seattle and joins a receiver room that features little in the way of proven options other than Jaxon Smith-Njigba. New Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold will have to make do with a receiving corps that has lost two 2024 starters, with DK Metcalf now in Pittsburgh and Tyler Lockett getting released. Their departures open up a potential path for Valdes-Scantling to see steady playing time as a deep threat. He recorded 17 catches (35 targets) for 385 yards and four scores across eight games with New Orleans in 2024.

  • Van Jefferson WR | TEN

    Titans' Van Jefferson: Lands one-year contract

    Jefferson and the Titans reached agreement Wednesday on a one-year, $2.5 million contract, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    The modest salary suggests Jefferson will need to compete for a depth job and may not even be assured of a roster spot. He'll be on his fourth team since the start of 2023, having never come close to matching the 50-802-6 receiving line he produced for the Rams in 2021, his second season in the league. He's finished south of 400 yards in each subsequent campaign and isn't likely to experience a major revival in his age-29 season ahead.

  • 49ers' Demarcus Robinson: Headed to San Francisco

    Robinson is slated to sign a two-year contract with the 49ers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Robinson hauled in a combined 57 passes for 876 yards and 11 touchdowns in 33 games across two seasons with the Rams and will now head to San Francisco. The 30-year-old will likely serve as a depth receiver behind Brandon Aiyuk (knee), Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall during the 2025 campaign, and he could see extensive playing time early in the season if Aiyuk is not fully recovered from the torn ACL he suffered last November.

  • Broncos' Trent Sherfield: Headed to Denver

    Sherfield is slated to sign a two-year contract with the Broncos, per Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports.

    Sherfield is headed to Denver after having caught just eight passes for 83 yards and one touchdown with the Vikings during the 2024 campaign. He could have the chance to compete for one of the top receiver spots opposite Courtland Sutton and can add value on special teams as well.

  • Ravens' DeAndre Hopkins: Joining forces with Lamar

    Hopkins is in line to sign a one-year contract with the Ravens, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.

    Hopkins split the 2024 campaign between the Titans and Kansas City, posting a 56-610-5 line on 80 targets in 16 regular-season games. Overall, it marked his fewest catches and receiving yards since 2021, when he was limited to 10 appearances with the Cardinals. Hopkins will turn 33 in June, and with Zay Flowers (knee) and Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) currently serving as Baltimore's top receivers and TEs Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely also on the roster, Hopkins may not be better than the fifth option in the passing game for Lamar Jackson.

  • Dolphins' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Takes talents to South Beach

    The Dolphins and Westbrook-Ikhine have agreed to terms on a two-year, $6.5 million contract, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Undrafted in 2020, Westbrook-Ikhine has made at least 14 appearances in each of his five pro campaigns, culminating with career highs in receiving yards (497), touchdowns (nine) and targets (60) on 32 catches across 17 regular-season games in 2024. By joining a Dolphins receiving corps that employs Tyreek Hill (wrist) and Jaylen Waddle, Westbrook-Ikhine likely can't expect a bump in volume, but he could be in store for an even more productive season this fall considering the attention secondaries pay to Miami's top pair.
