Dolphins sign former Niners receiver
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel and receivers coach Wes Welker are reuniting with a familiar face: former 49ers wideout Trent Sherfield is headed to Miami on a one-year deal, as reported by Tom Pelissero.
Patriots interested in CB Justin Coleman
The Patriots aren’t done looking at cornerbacks after the signing of Terrance Mitchell. According to Mark Daniels, they’re also showing interest in a former Patriot, cornerback Justin Coleman. This move would certainly make sense, since the Patriots could use a little familiarity along with veteran depth. Coleman played for the Patriots from 2015-16, and also with Matt Patricia in Detroit from 2019-20.
Patriots looking at positions of need
According to Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus, the Patriots are still looking at free agents at positions of need, and ones easy to predict: wide receivers, cornerbacks, and tackles. They’ve already signed journeyman CB Terrance Mitchell to a one-year deal, but Kyed reports that “their work isn’t done adding veteran players.”
At tackle, they’ve already been reported to be exploring a trade for the Cowboys’ La’El Collins. They’ve also been linked to Allen Robinson at receiver.
Commanders sign OG Andrew Norwell
According to Ian Rapoport, the Washington Commanders are signing veteran guard Andrew Norwell. Details of the deal have yet to be reported.
Texans re-sign RB Royce Freeman
According to Ian Rapoport, the Houston Texans are retaining running back Royce Freeman on a one-year deal. Freeman played seven games for the Texans in 2021 after being claimed off waivers.
Jets add to their pass rush
According to Ian Rapoport, the New York Jets agreed to a three-year deal worth $13.5 million with former Texans edge rusher Jacob Martin. The deal includes $6 million guaranteed.
