Antoine Winfield Jr. TB SAF
Buccaneers' Antoine Winfield: Agrees to restructured deal
2h agoWinfield agreed to a restructured contract Wednesday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Winfield converted the vast majority of his $21 million salary into a signing bonus, creating more than $15.8 million in cap space for the Bucs. Winfield appeared in just nine regular-season games last season due to injuries, finishing with 60 tackles (34 solo), including 2.0 sacks, three pass breakups and one fumble recovery, which he returned for a 58-yard touchdown. Winfield is under contract through 2027.

Tutu Atwell LAR WR
Rams' Tutu Atwell: Expected to see increased snaps
3h agoRams coach Sean McVay indicated that Atwell is going to be on the field "a lot more" this upcoming season after re-signing with Los Angeles on a one-year, $10 million contract in March, Stu Jackson of the team's official website reports.
"I haven't done a good enough job of utilizing him," McVay said. "When you look at the times when he's been able to play, whether that be because some people were out or not, he has produced and he's delivered, and we're looking forward to seeing more of that ascension. He's going to be on the field a lot more, particularly in a lot of those three-receiver sets." With the ouster of Cooper Kupp and Demarcus Robinson's exit in free agency coupled with the signing of Davante Adams, the Rams are expected to field a three-wide set of Puka Nacua, Adams and Atwell in 2025. As McVay noted, Atwell was particularly impressive on a per-snap basis last season, posting a strong 2.24 yards-per-route-run number. He'll be worth following this summer ahead of fantasy drafts as a potential late-round option.

Mike Evans TB WR
Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Clears up cap space
6h agoEvans agreed Wednesday to restructure his contract, converting part of his base salary into a bonus, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Evans' restructured deal will allow Tampa Bay greater room to maneuver as the team continues to work through free agency and prepare for the 2025 NFL Draft. Coming off his 11th consecutive 1,000-yard season, and with teammate Chris Godwin (knee - ACL) having re-signed with the Buccaneers, Evans is primed to run things back with quarterback Baker Mayfield in a familiar -- and ideal -- situation. Evans will turn 32 less than a month before the 2025 regular season kicks off, in what will be a contract year. He's yet to show any signs of slowing down and remains positioned as Mayfield's go-to receiving option, though former offensive coordinator Liam Cohen's departure to take on the Jaguars' head coaching position is notable. Replacing Cohen via the internal promotion of last year's pass-game coordinator, Josh Grizzard, still gives the Buccaneers' offense some amount of continuity at even the coordinator spot.

Sam Ehlinger DEN QB
Broncos' Sam Ehlinger: Gets one-year deal with Denver
9h agoThe Broncos signed Ehlinger to a one-year contract Wednesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Ehlinger, who spent the first four years of his NFL career in Indianapolis, didn't see action in a single game in 2024, though he did operate as the team's emergency third quarterback on multiple occasions. He'll now compete to carve out a reserve role behind Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham in Denver.

Jake Moody SF K
49ers' Jake Moody: Will face competition
9h agoCoach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that the 49ers intend to bring in a veteran kicker "who's capable of taking that job" to compete with Moody this offseason, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Shanahan communicated a belief that competition could bring out the best in Moody going forward, saying "if he can overcome that, and beat out a capable guy, that'll show us he's ready for the season." A 2023 third-round pick, Moody's struggles in 2024 can be attributed in part to a high-ankle sprain, which forced him to miss three contests and could have continued to impact his performance upon return to the field. He converted just 71 percent of his field goals across 14 regular-season appearances, and made only four of nine field-goal attempts from 50+ yards out.
-
Rashee Rice KC WR
Chiefs' Rashee Rice: On track for training camp
9h agoCoach Andy Reid said Tuesday that Rice (knee) is "on track to be ready" for training camp in July, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.
Rice's recovery from right knee surgery to address a season-ending injury sustained Week 4 continues to proceed well. All signs point to the 2023 second-round pick reaching full health well ahead of the start of the 2025 regular season, though he could still face a potential suspension related to his involvement in a hit-and-run car crash that occurred last March. In the three games he played fully last season, Rice emerged as Kansas City's clear top receiving option, racking up 24 catches for 288 yards and two scores. It will be interesting to see what role Rice now finds himself in, with Travis Kelce returning for a 13th season, Xavier Worthy heading into Year 2, and Hollywood Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster both having re-signed with the Chiefs.

Aaron Rodgers NYJ QB
Aaron Rodgers: Progress with Pittsburgh
1d agoSteelers owner Art Rooney said Tuesday that things are "pointing in that direction" regarding Rodgers potentially signing with Pittsburgh, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Rooney said the Steelers will wait "a little longer" but not "forever" for Rodgers to make a decision, per Dulac. The veteran quarterback met up with new Pittsburgh wideout DK Metcalf for a throwing session over the weekend, which Rooney called a "good sign," Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. With the Giants, who were often linked to Rodgers following his release by the Jets, having signed both Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, the Steelers' ready-to-compete roster appears to be the best remaining landing spot for the 41-year-old signal-caller, if he opts to continue his NFL career.

Kirk Cousins ATL QB
Falcons' Kirk Cousins: Not expected at OTAs
1d agoCousins isn't expected to show up for voluntary OTAs this spring, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
The Falcons kept Cousins on the roster in mid-March rather than releasing him to avoid having a $10 million guarantee kicking in. He may still be traded at some point this offseason, but there's a real chance he enters Week 1 as the backup in Atlanta behind 2024 first-round pick Michael Penix. The Falcons benched Cousins in favor of Penix for the final three games last season, with the rookie completing 58 of 100 passes for 737 yards (7.4 YPA), three TDs and three INTs, plus seven carries for 11 yards and another score. Penix played well enough to keep the starting job heading into 2025, but perhaps not well enough for the Falcons to be confident that he's a franchise QB in the making.

Daniel Jones IND QB
Colts' Daniel Jones: Will split first-team reps
2d agoJones and Anthony Richardson (back) will split first-team reps this spring, JJ Stankevitz of Colts.com reports.
Coach Shane Steichen and GM Chris Ballard both suggested there's no timetable for naming a Week 1 starter, with both QBs expected to get significant first-team reps throughout the offseason program (and possibly into training camp). The Colts recently signed Jones to a one-year, $14 million contract that includes $13.15 million guaranteed, putting him above the market for backup quarterbacks but not quite in starter range. It sounds like he and Richardson will split reps 50/50 at the beginning of OTAs.
-
Anthony Richardson IND QB
Colts' Anthony Richardson: Facing job battle with Jones
3d agoColts coach Shane Steichen recently said Richardson (back) and Daniel Jones will split first-team reps this spring and into training camp, Joel A. Erickson of the Indianapolis Star reports.
Taken fourth overall in the 2023 draft, Richardson has missed 17 of a possible 34 games because of injuries and was benched for another two for performance reasons, with lowlights of his career to date including a 47.7 percent completion rate in 2024. It at least sounds like he'll be healthy for the start of the offseason program, after missing the final two weeks of last season with a back injury. Jones has his own shortcomings and is highly unlikely to ever be anything more than a low-end starter or solid backup, but superior accuracy on short passes is one clear edge he has over Richardson, along with a better track record of availability (although that hasn't exactly been a strength for Jones, either).
-
Aaron Rodgers NYJ QB
Aaron Rodgers: Meets up with DK Metcalf
3d agoRodgers and Steelers wideout DK Metcalf had a throwing session over the weekend, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Rodgers met with the Steelers on March 21, with subsequent reports suggesting he'll either join them or retire. Their roster looks strong apart from the quarterback room, where Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson are the players currently under contract. The throwing session with Metcalf, a recent trade acquisition, may be taken as a hint that Rodgers is leaning toward signing with Pittsburgh.
-
Raheem Blackshear CAR RB
Panthers' Raheem Blackshear: Re-signs with Carolina
2d agoBlackshear is signing a one-year contract with the Panthers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The 2022 UDFA played 41 games for Carolina the past three seasons, taking 68 touches for 341 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns, 66 kickoff returns for 1,734 yards and 23 punt returns for 200 yards. Blackshear returned both kicks and punts in 2024, but he didn't get a restricted-free-agent tender earlier this offseason and now returns to the Panthers on a cheaper contract. He'll likely be third or fourth on the depth chart at running back, behind Chuba Hubbard and Rico Dowdle at the very least.
-
Kyren Williams LAR RB
Rams' Kyren Williams: Discussing extension
2d agoRams GM Les Snead said Monday that he wants to "engineer a long-term partnership" with Williams, Gary Klein of the LA Times reports.
Williams has been a polarizing player in the fantasy sphere since his 2023 breakout, and that's unlikely to change after he dipped to 4.1 YPC in 2024 while fumbling six times (including once in the playoffs). He otherwise had another big year, ranking third in carries per game (19.8), sixth in rushing yards per game (81.2) and tied for fifth in rushing touchdowns (14), giving him 26 rushing scores and five receiving TDs in 38 regular-season games over the past two seasons. Blake Corum, a 2024 third-round pick, never made a serious push to threaten Williams last season, and it sounds like the Rams would rather give Williams a contract extension than search for his replacement. Snead said he's already exchanged initial contract terms with agent Drew Rosenhaus.
-
Breece Hall NYJ RB
Jets' Breece Hall: Needs to impress new coaches?
3d agoNew Jets coach Aaron Glenn said Monday that Hall is one of three running backs that the team wants to "utilize as much as possible," Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
The other two presumably are 2024 fourth-round pick Braelon Allen and 2024 fifth-round pick Isaiah Davis, both of whom had some nice moments as rookies while spelling Hall off the bench during his disappointing season. It won't come as any surprise if the uber-talented Hall improves in 2025 and re-establishes himself as a workhorse back under a new coaching staff, but it's nonetheless interesting to see the contrast between Glenn's comment on Hall and what he said when reporters asked about WR Garrett Wilson. Glenn referred to Wilson as a "dynamic player" and said the Jets will try to get him the ball "as much as possible."
-
Julius Chestnut TEN RB
Titans' Julius Chestnut: Returning to Nashville
14d agoChestnut agreed Wednesday with the Titans on a one-year deal, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
The Sacred Heart product has inked a deal to return to Tennessee after taking 22 carries for 102 yards and catching two of his three targets for 11 yards across 17 games in 2024. Additionally, Chestnut played 225 special-teams snaps and tallied 337 kick-return yards. He's expected to play a similar role in 2025.
-
Travis Homer CHI RB
Bears' Travis Homer: Returning to Chicago
16d agoHomer (hamstring) signed a one-year, $2-million deal with the Bears on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The running back will remain with the team that he played for during the 2023 and '24 campaigns. Homer missed Chicago's last three games of 2024 with a hamstring injury but appears to be healthy again. He played more on special teams than offense in each of the last two seasons, recording just six carries for 23 yards and three catches for 11 yards between the two years.
-
Ronnie Rivers LAR RB
Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Staying in Los Angeles
17d agoRivers signed a one-year contract with the Rams on Sunday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Rivers opened the 2024 regular season as the Rams' No. 2 running back behind Kyren Williams, but he was eventually bumped down to third string by rookie Blake Corum. Rivers saw plenty of work on special teams for the Rams last season and should reprise that role in 2025. He finished the 2024 campaign with 22 carries for 99 yards and five catches (on six targets) for 34 yards across 17 regular-season games.

Tutu Atwell LAR WR
Rams' Tutu Atwell: Expected to see increased snaps
3h agoRams coach Sean McVay indicated that Atwell is going to be on the field "a lot more" this upcoming season after re-signing with Los Angeles on a one-year, $10 million contract in March, Stu Jackson of the team's official website reports.

With the ouster of Cooper Kupp and Demarcus Robinson's exit in free agency coupled with the signing of Davante Adams, the Rams are expected to field a three-wide set of Puka Nacua, Adams and Atwell in 2025. As McVay noted, Atwell was particularly impressive on a per-snap basis last season, posting a strong 2.24 yards-per-route-run number. He'll be worth following this summer ahead of fantasy drafts as a potential late-round option.

Terry McLaurin WAS WR
Commanders' Terry McLaurin: May sign extension soon
2d agoCommanders GM Adam Peters said Monday that he'd like to sign McLaurin to an extension before Week 1, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
McLaurin has one season remaining on the three-year, $68.2 million extension he signed in 2022, with $19 million to $20 million in real-money compensation for 2025. That might be enough to prevent a holdout, but the Commanders would rather lock him in for multiple years after McLaurin finished 2024 with career highs for touchdowns (13), catch rate (70.2 percent) and PPR points per game (15.9). Tough as it may be to avoid TD regression, McLaurin figures to remain highly efficient and may even get a slight boost to his target volume, entering his second season in an offense led by QB Jayden Daniels and OC Kliff Kingsbury. Offseason acquisition Deebo Samuel should mostly get touches/targets that went to Olamide Zaccheaus, Dyami Brown and Noah Brown last year, including many of the screens that were a frequent feature of Kingsbury's offense. McLaurin remains unchallenged as the team's top threat to catch deep and intermediate passes.
-
Ja'Lynn Polk NE WR
Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Recovering from surgery
2d agoPolk is recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
A second-round pick last spring, Polk got some chances in a top-three role as a rookie but caught just 12 of 33 targets (for 87 yards and two TDs) before suffering a shoulder injury Week 17. It apparently was serious enough to require surgery but shouldn't threaten his availability for Week 1 of 2025. New Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said he's excited about how Polk has approached his rehabilitation and focused on lower-body strength in the meantime. Once he's healthy, Polk will compete for playing time with new additions Stefon Diggs (ACL tear) and Mack Hollins, as well as 2025 holdovers DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, Kendrick Bourne and Javon Baker.
-
Treylon Burks TEN WR
Titans' Treylon Burks: Not nearing return yet
2d agoTitans coach Brian Callahan said Monday that Burks' return from an ACL tear should occur closer to the regular season, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Reading between the lines, Burks is unlikely to be ready for the start of training camp and in danger of missing Week 1. He suffered an ACL tear Week 6 of 2024, causing an early end to what was shaping up as another disappointing season. The 2022 first-round pick failed to earn a top-three role under a new coaching staff and now finds himself rehabbing a major injury for the final year of his rookie contract. The only positive development for Burks' fantasy value is that Tennessee's lack of receiving weapons could afford him another opportunity to compete for playing time. Still, there are many better ways to use a late-round fantasy pick.

Teagan Quitoriano ATL TE
Falcons' Teagan Quitoriano: Signs with Atlanta
5d agoThe Falcons are signing Quitoriano (calf) on Friday after hosting him for a workout, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Quitoriano was limited to seven-regular season appearances with Houston in 2024 before sustaining a calf injury. He didn't record any receptions in that span. Now having proved his healthy via a workout with Atlanta, Quitoriano will spend the offseason competing to secure another reserve gig.
-
Ian Thomas LV TE
Raiders' Ian Thomas: Lands in Las Vegas
8d agoThe Raiders signed Thomas (calf) to a contract Tuesday.
Thomas spent the first seven seasons of his NFL career in Carolina, and he now bolsters a Raiders tight end corps led by 2024 rookie phenom Brock Bowers and trade candidate Michael Mayer. Thomas is capable of contributing in a depth role as both a blocker and pass catcher, so his presence could make it easier for the team to move on from Mayer. He appeared in five games (two starts) with the Panthers in 2024 before landing on IR with a calf injury, but Thomas figures to be ready to go for the start of offseason activities.
-
Travis Vokolek ARI TE
Cardinals' Travis Vokolek: Signs tender
9d agoVokolek signed his tender with the Cardinals on Monday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
The one-year contract offer was the only one available to the tight end since he was an exclusive rights free agent. Vokolek appeared in one game and on four offensive snaps last season with the Cardinals, and he has yet to record a catch across three NFL appearances over the last two seasons. The Nebraska product likely will have to compete for a role as a depth tight end and special teamer in 2025.
-
Eric Saubert SEA TE
Seahawks' Eric Saubert: Joining Seattle
9d agoSaubert signed with the Seahawks on Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
With the signing, the tight end joins his eighth team as he heads into his ninth NFL campaign. Saubert spent 2024 with the 49ers, playing in all 17 regular-season games and catching 11 passes for 97 yards and a score. The veteran has played more on special teams than offense in five of his eight NFL seasons, and he should begin his time with Seattle behind at least Noah Fant and AJ Barner on the depth chart.
-
Tyler Conklin NYJ TE
Chargers' Tyler Conklin: Lands with Bolts
12d agoConklin agreed to terms Friday on a one-year contract with the Chargers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Conklin joins Will Dissly atop Los Angeles' tight-end depth chart, after both players logged similarly productive 2024 campaigns. Dissly (50-481-2) suited up for 15 regular-season games with the Chargers last year, while Conklin (51-449-4) played all 17 regular-season contests with the Jets. Both tight ends boast enough versatility to contribute as solid blockers and pass catchers. That overlap could cause their individual production to decline from a fantasy perspective, but it's a plus for Justin Herbert and offensive coordinator Greg Roman.
-
Shane Zylstra DET TE
Lions' Shane Zylstra: Staying in Motor City
15d agoDetroit will re-sign Zylstra for the 2025 season, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
The Lions added Zylstra to the active roster from their practice squad in November of 2024, and over 13 games including the playoffs, he caught his only target for 22 yards. He also contributed on special teams, logging more snaps in that phase than on offense for the first time in his career. Barring injuries, his role on Detroit's offense is likely to be minor in 2025.
-
Jake Moody SF K
49ers' Jake Moody: Will face competition
9h agoCoach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that the 49ers intend to bring in a veteran kicker "who's capable of taking that job" to compete with Moody this offseason, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Shanahan communicated a belief that competition could bring out the best in Moody going forward, saying "if he can overcome that, and beat out a capable guy, that'll show us he's ready for the season." A 2023 third-round pick, Moody's struggles in 2024 can be attributed in part to a high-ankle sprain, which forced him to miss three contests and could have continued to impact his performance upon return to the field. He converted just 71 percent of his field goals across 14 regular-season appearances, and made only four of nine field-goal attempts from 50+ yards out.
-
John Parker Romo NE K
Patriots' John Parker Romo: Only kicker left in New England
9d agoRomo became the last remaining kicker on the Patriots' roster once Joey Slye signed with the Titans on Monday, Mark Daniels of masslive.com reports.
The Patriots are likely to add another kicker as the offseason progresses, per Daniels. Romo signed to the Patriots' practice squad in December after replacing the injured Will Reichard for four games with the Vikings, during which he made 11 of 12 field goals and seven of eight extra-point tries. Romo also signed a reserve/future contract with New England in January, so he should have a chance to compete for at least the starting kicking job in training camp.
-
Joey Slye TEN K
Titans' Joey Slye: Catches on with Tennessee
10d agoSlye agreed to a contract with the Titans on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
The well-traveled Slye will catch on with an eighth different organization since going undrafted out of Virginia Tech in 2018. After being cut by the Jaguars last spring, Slye quickly caught on with New England on a one-year deal and emerged as the victor over Chad Ryland in the battle for kicking duties during training camp and the preseason. Slye proceeded to play in all 17 of New England's games in 2024, converting 26 of 33 field-goal attempts and 25 of 26 extra-point tries. The 28-year-old currently is the only kicker on the Titans roster, but the team will almost certainly add some competition before training camp.
-
Spencer Shrader IND K
Colts' Spencer Shrader: Circles back to Colts
20d agoShrader signed a two-year deal with the Colts on Thursday.
Shrader had a whirlwind rookie season, as he appeared in games for the Colts, Chiefs and Jets. In total, he went 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts and converted all nine of his extra-point attempts across four games. Per James Boyd of The Athletic, Shrader will compete with Matt Gay for the kicker job this summer.
-
Spencer Shrader IND K
Spencer Shrader: Non-tendered by Kansas City
21d agoShrader (hamstring) became an unrestricted free agent Wednesday after the Chiefs did not tender his contract, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Shrader played two regular-season games for the Chiefs while filling in for Harrison Butker, who was on injured reserve due to a knee injury. Shrader went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made all six of his extra-point tries with Kansas City, but he himself went on IR in early December due to a hamstring injury. Now that he's an unrestricted free agent, Shrader will have the freedom to sign with a team looking to sign a kicker.
-
Zane Gonzalez WAS K
Commanders' Zane Gonzalez: Running it back in D.C.
27d agoWashington re-signed Gonzalez on Thursday.
As Austin Seibert went to the Commanders' injured reserve list with a hip injury ahead of Week 13, Gonzalez was signed to fill in. Over nine games, including the postseason, he made 12 of his 15 field-goal tries and all 27 of his extra-point attempts. That seems to have been good enough to earn him priority for the starting job for 2025.
-
Antoine Winfield Jr. TB SAF
Buccaneers' Antoine Winfield: Agrees to restructured deal
2h agoWinfield agreed to a restructured contract Wednesday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Winfield converted the vast majority of his $21 million salary into a signing bonus, creating more than $15.8 million in cap space for the Bucs. Winfield appeared in just nine regular-season games last season due to injuries, finishing with 60 tackles (34 solo), including 2.0 sacks, three pass breakups and one fumble recovery, which he returned for a 58-yard touchdown. Winfield is under contract through 2027.

Calais Campbell MIA DE
Cardinals' Calais Campbell: Returning to Arizona
1d agoCampbell agreed to a one-year deal with the Cardinals on Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Campbell, who turns 39 in September, started all 17 regular-season games for the Dolphins last season en route to recording 52 tackles and 5.0 sacks. In his return to the team that drafted him in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft, Campbell will add valuable depth and experience to Arizona's defensive line this coming season. Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Campbell's deal is for $5.5 million and has a maximum value of $7.5 million.
-
Justin Hardee TEN DB
Titans' Justin Hardee: Re-signs with Tennessee
1d agoThe Titans re-signed Hardee to a one-year contract Tuesday.
Hardee suited up for nine regular-season games with Tennessee in 2024, playing exclusively on special teams. He figures to fill a similar role during the 2025 campaign. Hardee has played just two defensive snaps over the last five years, while regular contributing on special teams across his 63 combined regular-season appearances between the Saints, Jets and Titans.
-
Ty Summers NYG LB
Giants' Ty Summers: Returns to G-Men
2d agoThe Giants re-signed Summers on Monday.
Summers appeared in 16 regular-season games for the G-Men last season, making a pair of starts, and finished the 2024 campaign with 29 tackles (13 solo) and one pass breakup as a reserve linebacker and special teams contributor. He'll compete for a similar role next season.
-
Michael Hall Jr. CLE DT
Browns' Mike Hall: Had offseason knee surgery
2d agoBrowns GM Andrew Berry said Monday that Hall did require offseason knee surgery, and Hall is expected to miss the offseason program, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Selected in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft, Hall suffered a neck stinger last August and then was involved in a domestic violence issue that led to a five-game suspension. He later missed time with a knee issue, and Hall went on to play in just eight games as a rookie. He finished the year with 14 tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks. Hall should be ready to go for the start of training camp later this summer.

Christian Barmore NE DT
Patriots' Christian Barmore: Expected to be available in April
2d agoSpeaking Monday, new Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said Barmore (illness) is expected to be available for the start of the offseason program next month, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.
Barmore was diagnosed with blood clots last summer and missed the first 10 games of the 2024 season before being cleared to play in November. He appeared in four games before experiencing recurred symptoms, leading to his placement on the reserve/non-football illness list for the final three contests of the year. Barmore's return would be a massive boost to New England's defensive line.
