Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan said that he's happy with running backs Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears but wouldn't rule out the team adding to the position this offseason to give them something different. In his first year in Tennessee, Pollard was the clear lead back for the Titans, carrying the ball 260 times for a career-high 1,079 rushing yards and five touchdowns while adding 41 catches for 238 yards on 57 targets in 16 games. Meanwhile, Spears finished with only 312 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 84 carries, adding 30 catches (35 targets) for 224 yards and another TD through the air in 12 games. Pollard should remain in the lead-back role for Tennessee in 2025, but depending on if/when the Titans add another RB, it could make the distribution of touches a little more uncertain. Fantasy-wise, a lot will also depend on who the Titans are starting under center at QB.

New Tennessee Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi told reporters at the NFL Combine on Tuesday that he has received calls about the availability of the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 draft. While the Titans will listen, it's too early in the process for Borgonzi to be making any decisions. If Tennessee holds onto the top pick, it's not out of the question that they would consider taking Colorado wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter, who Borgonzi called a "generational talent." Former second-rounder Will Levis was benched in 2024, so QB is certainly a position of need at No. 1 overall as well if the Titans don't trade out of the No. 1 overall pick this year. Borgonzi also said, "We could sign a quarterback in free agency and also draft a quarterback as well." The bottom line is the Titans have a number of different avenues they could employ, and trading the first pick remains in play.

Dr. Neal Elattrache wrote in a letter sent to all 32 NFL teams on Tuesday that he expects Michigan tight end and projected first-round pick Colston Loveland (shoulder) to be ready to take part in minicamp and to be fully cleared for training camp this summer despite having surgery on his right shoulder last month. Loveland played through an AC joint dislocation with the Wolverines last year and finished with 56 catches for 582 yards and five touchdowns in his final year at college. Despite the fact that the 20-year-old won't take part in the Combine this week and is unlikely to do a Pro Day workout, he still has the talent to be selected in the first round in April's NFL draft. For fantasy purposes, although Loveland could eventually develop into a nice pass-catching tight end, nobody will be expecting him to be the next Brock Bowers or Sam LaPorta in 2025.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni confirmed on Tuesday that new offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo will call plays in 2025. "I think what you guys don't see is the collaboration like one guy wears the crown of the offensive coordinator and that guy gets all the blame, that guy gets all the credit. That's not the way football works. It's just not in any sense of the fashion. Kevin's been there I can't tell how much him and Kellen were talking throughout the game, how much him and Brian were talking throughout the game, how much him and Shane were talking throughout the game," Sirianni said. Patullo, who was promoted from the role of passing-game coordinator/associate head coach, will have big shoes to fill after Kellen Moore left to become the Saints' head coach. The 43-year-old previously worked under Sirianni with the Colts as a receivers coach and pass-game specialist from 2018-20.

Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said on Tuesday at the NFL Combine that former New Orleans Saints offensive tackle Terron Armstead is still contemplating retirement this offseason, but the Dolphins are currently operating as if he won't be around in 2025. With Armstead leaning toward hanging up his cleats, he's expected to agree to a restructured deal that would lower his base salary from $13.3 million to the veteran's minimum. The Saints' former third-round selection in 2013 out of Arkansas-Pine Bluff is a five-time Pro Bowler, but he's never played in a full season in his 12 years in the NFL and will turn 34 years old this summer. Armstead limped his way to start 15 games in Miami in 2024, which was the most games he played in a season since 2019 with the Saints. With Armstead likely retiring, the Dolphins will make offensive line a priority this offseason.

Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz said he feels it's realistic to keep linebacker Joey Bosa at his $36.4 million salary cap number in 2025. "I know he wants to retire a charger. .. I'd love for him to retire a Charger. I love Joey -- the teammate, the competitor," Hortiz said. Bosa is scheduled to make $25.36 million this year, with nearly half of it coming in the form of a $12.36 million roster bonus due in March. None of the 29-year-old's 2025 money is guaranteed, but if they do want to bring him back, they will have to decide on that before his roster bonus is due. Many folks think that the Chargers would be better off cutting Bosa, who had only five sacks in 14 games in 2024, but he could be a priority to retain since fellow pass-rusher Khalil Mack will be an unrestricted free agent and can't be franchise-tagged. Bosa, who is as injury-prone as ever, no longer appears to be a dominant pass-rusher in the NFL.

Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman said at the NFL Combine on Tuesday that the team will make a "concerted effort" to re-sign impending free-agent linebacker Zack Baun this offseason. "We didn't do any deals during the season, which probably could have prevented some of these problems, but we just didn't feel like the timing was right," Roseman said. Baun, a former third-rounder by the New Orleans Saints in 2020 out of Wisconsin, came out of nowhere to have a monster season for the Super Bowl-champion Eagles in his first year in Philadelphia. The 28-year-old made the Pro Bowl and was named a first-team All-Pro by recording 151 tackles (93 solo), 3.5 sacks, 11 tackles for loss, five QB hits, an interception, five forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 16 regular-season starts. The Eagles have plenty of other priorities this offseason, so seeing Baun walk in free agency would not be a surprise.

Las Vegas Raiders minority owner Tom Brady has been in contact with Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford's camp about the possibility of coming to Vegas, multiple NFL sources told the Las Vegas Review-Journal's Vincent Bonsignore. The Rams have already given Stafford permission to speak with other teams to gauge his market outside of L.A. The 37-year-old signal-caller has two years left on his deal with the Rams, but he's seeking an extension because he has minimal guaranteed money left on his deal and wants to be paid in line with some of the top QBs in the league. If the Raiders are willing to give Stafford over $50 million for a couple more years, it just might lure him away from the Rams, although it wouldn't necessarily make him any more appealing from a fantasy perspective as a QB2 near the end of his career.

New Las Vegas Raiders general manager John Spytek said on Tuesday at the NFL Combine that the team wants to keep All-Pro pass-rusher Maxx Crosby in town long term. The 27-year-old four-time Pro Bowler is entering the final two seasons of a four-year, $94 million deal but has run out of guaranteed money on his contract. His $22.2 million salary in 2025 and $18.8 million salary in 2026 are not guaranteed, and a new deal would likely make him one of the league's highest-paid pass-rushers. The Las Vegas Review-Journal's Vincent Bonsignore writes that it would be surprising if a new deal between the Raiders and Crosby isn't struck before the start of the 2025 season this fall. Crosby played in a career-low 12 games in 2024 due to injury and had 7.5 sacks, but he's been a Pro Bowler each of the last four years and is one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL when healthy.

Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said that quarterback J.J. McCarthy (knee) has his sights set on being ready for the start of the team's offseason program in April. The head coach said that McCarthy's rehab from season-ending knee surgery in 2024 continues to go well. The 22-year-old first-rounder (10th overall) tore the meniscus in his right knee in the preseason and had to miss all of his first year in the NFL. Meanwhile, Sam Darnold had a career year for the Vikings. Darnold will be an unrestricted free agent in March, but it will be telling whether the Vikings let him walk, place the franchise tag on him or sign him to a multi-year extension. Minnesota still believes in McCarthy as their QB of the future, but depending on how they deal with the Darnold situation, he could be in for another "redshirt" year in 2025.

Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan said on Tuesday at the NFL Combine that the team will tender an offer to impending restricted free-agent running back Jaylen Warren. The second-round tender will be worth $5.2 million, while an original-round tender for Warren would be for $3.19 million. If the Steelers give him the original-round tender and he signs with another team, they wouldn't receive draft-pick compensation because he wasn't drafted in 2022. Meanwhile, Najee Harris will be an unrestricted free agent after the Steelers declined his fifth-year option. The 26-year-old Warren's fantasy value in 2025 will all depend on if he stays in Pittsburgh and also whether Harris is re-signed. Warren looked ready to break out after going for 784 rushing yards in 2023, but he took a step back in 2024 with 120 carries, 511 yards and just one rushing score in 15 regular-season games.

Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said on Tuesday at the NFL Combine that he has met with kicker Justin Tucker and that the Ravens will allow the NFL to conduct its investigation before making any decisions. "The allegations are serious, concerning. The amount of allegations are serious and concerning. I think we're fortunate that the league is doing an investigation. We'll wait as patiently as we can for as much information as we can and we'll make our decisions based on that," DeCosta said. Sixteen women have alleged sexual misconduct at massage parlors against the 35-year-old Tucker, and the Ravens have said in the past that they have a "zero-tolerance" policy against sexual misconduct. Not only could Tucker be facing a lengthy suspension from the NFL in 2025, but the Ravens could outright release him, especially after he had the worst season of his career in 2024.

The Charlotte Observer's Xavier Legette (foot) avoided wrist surgery but did have foot surgery this offseason, according to general manager Dan Morgan. Legette played through a foot injury in his first year in the NFL in 2024, which likely played a part in his disappointing showing. After the Panthers selected him 32nd overall out of South Carolina, the 24-year-old struggled to get on the same page with second-year quarterback and caught only 49 of his 84 targets for 497 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games (13 starts). Legette may be forced to miss organized team activities this spring, but he should be fully recovered from his foot surgery in time for the start of training camp this summer. He'll be looking to make a jump in Year 2 in Carolina, but the likely return of veteran Adam Thielen (he was contemplating retirement) could make things more difficult for the former first-rounder.

Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta pledged his support for tight end Mark Andrews at the NFL Combine on Tuesday, saying: "Mark is a great player. Mark will be in a ring if honor someday. I love having him on the team. We'll figure out all the roster machinations in the coming weeks but nobody is a bigger Mark Andrews fan than me." Andrews had an AFC Championship game to forget in the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, losing a critical fumble and dropped a two-point conversion. The 29-year-old has just one year left on his deal with $11 million in non-guaranteed money. The Ravens could save $11 million on this year's salary cap if they were to cut him before his $4 million roster bonus is due on March 17. Although he has the support of the GM and has plenty of chemistry with quarterback Lamar Jackson, Andrews is turning 30 next month and saw Isaiah Likely take on a bigger role next to him in 2024.

The Athletic's Matt Schneidman says not to be surprised if the Green Bay Packers reach a contract extension with linebacker Quay Walker this offseason. The deadline to exercise fifth-year options is coming soon, and picking up Walker's fifth-year option would result in a guaranteed salary of around $16.5 million in 2026, according to Over The Cap. It sounds like general manager Brian Gutekunst doesn't want to make Walker the fourth-highest paid off-the-ball linebacker, although it doesn't mean the team doesn't want Walker to stick around into the future. "But yeah, we'd like to find a way to keep Quay around here long-term, whether that be an extension or something," Gutekunst said. Despite playing in only 13 regular-season games in 2024 due to an ankle injury, the former first-rounder finished with 102 combined tackles for the third straight year to begin his NFL career.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (shoulder) said on locker cleanout day at the end of last season that he tore his labrum in the wild-card playoff loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. General manager Brian Gutekunst said Reed could be limited during the offseason but should be fine for the start of training camp at the end of July. It was initially reported that the 24-year-old suffered a dislocated shoulder, but the good news is that he didn't require offseason surgery. In his second year in the NFL in 2024, Reed looked primed for his first 1,000-yard campaign early on, but he limped to the finish line and ended up with 55 catches on 75 targets for 857 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (10 starts). He also added 20 carries for 163 yards and another score. He's settled in as a boom/bust WR3/flex in fantasy, but he could have more upside with Christian Watson (knee) set to miss at least half of 2025.

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said that he doesn't think wide receiver Romeo Doubs (concussion) has any long-term concern with his head health despite the fact that he suffered multiple concussions in the second half of the 2024 season, including in the wild-card loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. "Any time a guy has a couple concussions back-to-back, there's some concern there, not necessarily his long-term liability or anything, just for him," Gutekunst said. "I would expect him to bounce back and be at his best." The 24-year-old took a step back in 2024 in his third year in the NFL, but it didn't help that he played in only 13 regular-season games (12 starts). After going for 674 receiving yards and eight TDs in 2023, Doubs finished with a 46-601-4 line. With Christian Watson (knee) expected to miss at least half the 2025 season, Doubs should be in line for an expanded role if he's healthy.

Kansas City Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said on Tuesday at the NFL Combine that the team "will look to get Marquise Brown back." The Chiefs had big plans for Hollywood when they signed him last offseason, but the 27-year-old suffered a shoulder injury in the preseason that required surgery and caused him to miss 15 regular-season games. He eventually returned to play in two games at the tail end of the regular season and caught nine of 15 targets for 91 yards and no touchdowns as he got back up to speed. Brown added five catches on 13 targets for only 50 yards in three playoff games. Despite a disappointing 2024 campaign, the speedy wideout could be a prime bounce-back candidate in fantasy at a cheap cost if he returns to the Chiefs as a starter in three-wide sets with Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice (knee).

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) had his ACL surgery and is expected to be back around the midway point of the 2025 season, according to The Athletic's Matt Schneidman. "Doing well. He's got a lot in front of him, but I expect him to attack it like he does everything else everything so far's been really good. He's been through this before, so he knows what to expect. It's a big injury. It may take some time, but he's got the right mindset, positive attitude toward it," general manager Brian Gutekunst said. The 25-year-old wideout tore his ACL in Week 18 against the Bears and finished his third year in the NFL with 29 catches (53 targets) for a career-high 620 receiving yards and a career-low two touchdowns in 15 starts. Known as a slow healer, it wouldn't be a surprise if Watson's recovery lingers into the second half. In standard 12-team leagues this fall, Watson will most likely go undrafted.

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers prefers to play for the Los Angeles Rams and that he would bring wide receiver Davante Adams with him to his next stop, sources told the New York Daily News' Pat Leonard. The new Jets regime has already decided to move on from Rodgers and are expected to designate him as a post-June 1 cut. However, Rodgers and Adams playing for the Rams can only happen if L.A. actually trades current starting QB Matthew Stafford. But even in that scenario, it's unclear if the Rams would consider the 41-year-old Rodgers an upgrade over Stafford. The future Hall of Famer is likely to only play one more season in 2025, and he proved the last two years in New York that Father Time has caught up to him. The four-time MVP tore his Achilles in Week 1 in 2023 and was up in down in 2024, throwing for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 17 starts.
