Saints head coach Kellen Moore said Saturday that all three of the team's currently rostered quarterbacks -- Haener, Tyler Shough and Spencer Rattler -- will have an opportunity to compete for the starting quarterback role during camp in the wake of Derek Carr's retirement, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Carr's unexpected retirement Saturday swung the door wide open for one of New Orleans' three young quarterbacks to take the reigns as the team's starting QB in 2025. None of the trio has much experience -- Shough is a rookie, Haener has thrown just 39 NFL passes, and Rattler has thrown 228 passes -- so they are beginning the competition on a pretty level playing field in that regard. However, Haener is probably a longshot to earn the QB1 nod based on the fact that Rattler was the primary choice to step in last season after Carr was hurt, while Shough has the most invested in him, as the Saints selected him in the second round of April's NFL Draft. Haener also looked overwhelmed in his lone NFL start, completing just four of 10 passes for 49 yards and an interception in Week 15 last season before being benched after halftime.

As a result of Derek Carr (shoulder) announcing his retirement from the NFL on Saturday, Rattler could battle with rookie Tyler Shough for the Saints' starting quarterback role to begin the 2025 campaign.

Carr's retirement leaves New Orleans with a QB room consisting of Rattler, Shough and Jake Haener. In terms of game experience, Rattler is the most experienced of the trio -- he got into seven games as a rookie last year but largely struggled, completing just 57 percent of his 228 pass attempts for 1,317 yards and a 4:5 TD:INT while adding 146 yards on the ground on 18 carries. However, Shough -- who is a rookie but is exactly one year older than Rattler -- may be the favorite for the QB1 role heading into training camp after the Saints took him in the second round of April's NFL Draft. As it currently stands, both QBs should have an opportunity to make a case for the Week 1 starting role throughout camp and preseason play, though there's an outside chance New Orleans could bring in a more seasoned QB via free agency or trade.

Shough is lined up to be the Saints' starting quarterback next season after Derek Carr (shoulder) announced his retirement Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Coming into the weekend, there were already questions about Carr's potential availability for the 2025 campaign due to the veteran quarterback's shoulder issue, and his decision to retire has left the Saints with a QB room featuring Shough, Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener. Rattler struggled as a rookie last year, completing just 57 percent of his passes while posting a 4:5 TD:INT, but he did rush for 146 yards on just 18 carries and could get a chance to begin the season as the starter behind center given that he is the most experienced of the group. However, Shough should at least have the opportunity to battle for the Week 1 starting role and may be the favorite for the job after the Saints took him the second round of April's NFL Draft. Though he's an NFL rookie, Shough is 26 years old, so New Orleans has little incentive to stash him on the bench for development purposes, but there's always a possibility the organization brings in a more experienced quarterback via free agency or trade.

Carr (shoulder) has decided to retire from the NFL, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Carr ended the 2024 season on the sidelines with a broken left hand and an oblique injury that he suffered in Week 14 against the Giants. He later suffered a labral tear in his right shoulder while gearing up for the 2025 season. Tyler Shough, taken in the second round of the 2025 Draft, could emerge as New Orleans' starting QB with Carr retiring.

Rourke (knee) won't participate in the 49ers' rookie camp, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The 2025 seventh-round pick played his final collegiate season on a torn ACL, so it's no surprise that he won't be ready for San Francisco's rookie minicamp. During Rourke's final season at Indiana, he threw for 3,042 yards, 29 touchdowns and five picks, while also adding two rushing touchdowns. Once the 24-year-old returns from his ACL injury, he's expected to compete for a depth role in the 49ers' quarterback room.

The Steelers remain in contact with Rodgers and hope he'll eventually sign, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Trading WR George Pickens to the Cowboys makes Pittsburgh a less attractive destination for a QB in general, but it won't necessarily impact Rodgers' decision between the Steelers and retirement, especially if he already expected Pickens to be dealt. Reports in mid-April suggested the 41-year-old was focused on his personal life and eventually would either retire or sign with Pittsburgh. There's been no report on a specific timeline for that decision, but the Steelers presumably would appreciate knowing before OTAs begin May 27.

The Steelers are signing Sermon to a one-year contract, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.

Sermon was a third-round draft pick by the 49ers in 2021, but he's yet to make a major impact at the NFL level. The 26-year-old spent the past two seasons with Indianapolis, and he logged a career-high 236 offensive snaps over 17 regular-season games last year, though he averaged just 2.8 yards on 56 carries while scoring a career-high two rushing touchdowns. Sermon also logged 99 yards on 16 catches and contributed on special teams late in the campaign. With Najee Harris now with the Chargers, Pittsburgh has rebuilt its running back room behind returning starter Jaylen Warren, adding both Sermon and Kenneth Gainwell in free agency along with third-round draft choice Kaleb Johnson.

Titans head coach Brian Callahan said Saturday that Mullings (abdomen) is recovering from core muscle surgery and will be limited at rookie minicamp, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.

Tennessee selected Mullings in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft with knowledge of his offseason procedure, so his current capped participation level at rookie minicamp is simply the result of following his recovery timetable. Once fully healthy, Mullings will work to earn a depth role behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears (concussion). Callahan said the Titans are "just being careful with [Mullings] at this point," per Zach Dimmitt of SI.com.

Cleveland general manager Andrew Berry said Friday that the possibility of re-signing Chubb (foot) is "increasingly unlikely" after the team added two running backs in the 2025 NFL Draft, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN reports.

Berry said he's "never going to rule out [Chubb]" and that he "would expect him to take another step being a year removed from the knee injury," but he made clear that "a return is less likely, at least in the short term, with us right now." In his statement, Berry specifically noted rookies Quinshon Judkins (a second-round pick) and Dylan Sampson (fourth round), as well as incumbent veteran Jerome Ford, as reasons a reunion with Chubb is currently off the table. Just as notably, Berry said that Chubb is fully recovered from the broken foot that forced him to miss the final three games of 2024. The 29-year-old running back struggled in his return from a left ACL tear last season, averaging a career-low 3.3 yards per carry across eight appearances before landing on IR in Week 15 due to his foot fracture. He'll work to regain some of his prior explosiveness and find a new opportunity to compete this offseason.

The Titans signed Bernard as an undrafted free agent Thursday.

Bernard spent six years at Utah but had his best season in 2024, rushing 197 times for 1,009 yards and four touchdowns. He added 30 catches for 150 yards and two additional scores as a receiver. Bernard will turn 24 years old later this fall. He'll attempt to push sixth-round rookie Kalel Mullings for a spot on the Titans' roster behind Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears and Julius Chestnut.

The Panthers are placing Brooks on the physically unable to perform list, ruling him out for the entire 2025 season.

Players can return from the PUP list when placed on it at the start of training camp or before Week 1, but not if they get the designation this early in the offseason. Brooks tore the ACL in his right knee each of the past two years, bringing his college career to an early conclusion and then limiting his rookie season to three games. The Panthers took him in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 46th overall, but they'll now move forward with Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle and Trevor Etienne as the main candidates to take carries in 2025.

Strong will compete for slotting in a Cleveland backfield that includes returnee Jerome Ford, as well as rookies Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

A concussion prevented Strong from suiting up for the Browns' season finale in 2024, but now that he's presumably past the issue, the 2022 fourth-rounder -- who is in the last year of his rookie contract -- will attempt to retain his depth role in the team's backfield. He is an option in the return game, but as long as Judkins and Sampson stay healthy, Strong may not have much of a role in the offense after logging 26 carries for 108 yards and a 14-104-0 receiving line on 22 targets in 14 games last year.

The Giants released Humphrey on Friday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

This move comes as a bit of a surprise, as Humphrey looked to have a legitimate chance of serving as wideout depth for New York after signing with the organization March 21. The veteran wideout tallied a career-high 31 catches and 293 receiving yards over 17 regular-season games with Denver last year, adding one receiving touchdown. The Giants recently signed five receivers as undrafted free agents and needed to clear roster space, precipitating Humphrey's release.

The Raiders waived Foreman (knee) with a failed physical designation Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Foreman suffered a knee injury during training camp in August of last year and spent the entire season on IR. The failed physical designation suggests the 25-year-old wideout hasn't fully recovered. If Foreman isn't claimed by another team off waivers, he'll revert to the Raiders' PUP list.

Franklin signed with the Raiders as an undrafted free agent Friday.

Franklin played for three different schools throughout his six-year collegiate career, spending the first four seasons at UTSA before transferring to Ole Miss in 2023 and finishing his career at Illinois in 2024. The 6-foot-1 wideout's best season came at UTSA in 2022, catching 94 passes for 1,136 yards and 15 touchdowns across 14 games. With much of the Raiders' wide receiver corps still unproven, Franklin will likely compete for a depth spot on the active roster or practice squad during offseason activities.

The Panthers waived Luther on Thursday.

Luther inked a futures deal with Carolina after the regular season ended but will now be looking for his fifth NFL team since entering the league as an undrafted free agent out of Gardner-Webb back in 2023. He's yet to appear in a regular-season game.

The Jets waived Winston on Thursday.

The 28-year-old wideout has been well traveled since entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of Washington State in 2020. Winston appeared in three regular-season games for the Saints in 2021, catching one pass for five yards. He'll now look for his sixth team.

The Jets waived Riley (undisclosed) with an injury designation Thursday.

The 25-year-old wide receiver has yet to appear in a regular-season game in the NFL. He recorded 33 catches for 635 yards and five touchdowns at Florida A&M back in 2023 before going undrafted and signing with the Jets.

Loveland (shoulder) is not participating in on-field work at rookie minicamp Friday as he continues to rehab from surgery undergone in January, Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Loveland, the 10th overall pick of April's draft, is present at rookie minicamp and building familiarity with Chicago's offensive scheme and new quarterback Caleb Williams (wrist), but the tight end's workout availability is currently limited to running and controlled lifting, per Bair. The rookie first-rounder is expected to be ready for increased participation in mandatory minicamp in early June and to be fully cleared for training camp in July. Loveland is a capable blocker at 6-foot-6, 260-pounds, but he figures to make his largest impact as a mismatch in the receiving game, though DJ Moore, Rome Odunze and rookie second-round pick Luther Burden represent plenty of competition for targets. Cole Kmet played 87 percent of snaps last season and has two years remaining on the four-year, $50 million deal he inked with Chicago in 2023, but Loveland boasts the draft capital and skillset to push for the No. 1 role before long.

Carolina waived Granger (undisclosed) with an injury settlement Thursday.

If he clears waivers, Granger will be a free agent and can look for an opportunity elsewhere. Granger is a former college basketball player who has never played a down of football. He's merely a developmental project.

Goedert and the Eagles are in agreement on a reworked contract that will keep him with the team for 2025, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Offseason trade rumors never materialized, keeping the 30-year-old with the only NFL team he's known. Goedert averaged between 3.7 and 4.6 catches per game each of the past six regular seasons, reliably putting up solid efficiency stats on 5-to-6 targets per game, with the biggest difference from year to year being his number of absences. He's missed multiple games in five straight seasons, including a career-high seven last year before bouncing back in the playoffs with a 17-215-1 receiving line in four games. Goedert should continue to provide low-end TE1 fantasy production when healthy, serving as Philadelphia's No. 3 receiving option behind WRs A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Deguara signed with the Cardinals on Monday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports.

A 2020 third-round pick of the Packers who spent 2024 with the Jaguars, Deguara has 50 career catches for 450 yards and two touchdowns, including three catches for 14 yards a year ago. He has played on over 800 special-teams snaps over the course of his career, and he could earn a role that way on the Cardinals. Arizona's tight end room is led by Trey McBride, who caught 111 passes for 1,146 yards in 2024, and then Tip Reiman and Elijah Higgins.

The Seahawks are planning to convert Ouzts, whom they selected in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, from tight end to fullback, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Ouzts played a versatile role during his four years in college at Alabama, and as a tight end he worked primarily as a blocker. That should help the rookie with his conversion to a fullback in the NFL, and Henderson notes that the decision is part of a plan by new OC Klint Kubiak to deploy a more physical run game. Ouzts will likely compete for reps in fullback packages with Brady Russell, who is also making a change from tight end to fullback for the coming campaign.

Arroyo said Friday that he is no longer dealing with the knee injury that limited him leading up to the NFL Draft, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

The knee issue prevented Arroyo from running the 40 at either the NFL Combine or his pro day, though Seattle was able to estimate him at 4.52/4.53 based on his GPS speeds. The injury didn't deter the Seahawks from drafting the big tight end out of Miami in the second round (50th overall), however, making him the fifth tight end off the board. Arroyo has a chance to carve out a significant role in the team's offense, especially if he can have a big training camp -- while Noah Fant tallied a respectable 500 receiving yards on 48 catches during the regular season last year, he has only one touchdown reception over the past two campaigns.

Coach John Harbaugh was impressed by what he saw of Loop during the Ravens' rookie minicamp, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports.

"It was good to see it. It was good to hear it," Harbaugh noted of rookie sixth-rounder's kicking during the minicamp. "I think as much as anything, it's good to hear a kicker, and the way the ball comes off his foot is impressive." Following the release of Justin Tucker on Monday, Loop -- who was first kicker drafted in the Ravens' 30-year history, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN -- appears poised to assume the team's placekicking duties, though look for depth at the position to be added, with Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic noting that Baltimore is expected to sign UDFA John Hoyland (Wyoming).

The Ravens have released Tucker.

Per Kevin Patra of NFL.com, Tucker -- who had been with the Ravens since 2012 -- remains under league investigation for potential improper conduct, and the team now has elected to part ways with the veteran kicker, who converted 22 of his 30 field-goal attempts over 17 regular-season games in 2024. Tyler Loop, who was selected in the sixth round of last month's draft, thus appears to be in line to handle Baltimore's kicking duties this coming season, though it's possible the team could add some depth at the position ahead of training camp.

Tucker has been working out at Baltimore's training facility, and the Ravens are currently approaching the competition between him and rookie Tyler Loop "purely on football," Giana Han of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Tucker uncharacteristically struggled last year, converting just 22 of 30 field-goal attempts over 17 regular-season games. He's also currently under investigation by the NFL due to off-field allegations. The Ravens selected Loop in the sixth round of April's draft, suggesting that Tucker's role with the team is hazy considering the league's investigation and his unsatisfactory kicking last year.

The Commanders are releasing Gonzalez on Tuesday after having signed Matt Gay, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

Gonzalez performed admirably for Washington after Austin Seibert (groin) was lost to injury in Week 12 last year, suiting up for six regular-season games and three postseason contests. In that span he converted 12 of his 15 field-goal attempts and all 27 of his extra-point tries. Gonzalez, who will turn 30 in early May, likely won't need long to catch on with a new team.

Gay signed a one-year, $4.25 million contract with Washington on Tuesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Gay's deal is fully guaranteed and reportedly coincides with the release of veteran incumbent Zane Gonzalez. Across 16 regular-season appearances with Indianapolis in 2024, Gay converted 31 of 37 field-goal attempts (84 percent), with all six of his misses coming from 50-plus yards out. He also converted all 33 of his extra-point tries.

Sauls is signing with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent, Burt Lauten of the team's official site reports.

Sauls is slated to stay in Pittsburgh where he spent the entirety of his collegiate career with the University of Pittsburgh Panthers. With Chris Boswell entrenched as the Pittsburgh's starting kicker, Sauls could be an option for the team's practice squad.

Broncos head coach Sean Payton said Saturday that Greenlaw (quadriceps) is "on schedule" and "will be a full participant in training camp," Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

Greenlaw suffered a torn quadriceps while training in April, and while it sounds like the injury could limit the veteran linebacker during OTAs and/or mandatory minicamp, he remains fully on track for training camp. After signing a three-year, $35 million contract with Denver this offseason, Greenlaw is on track to handle a starting role at inside linebacker for the Broncos.

Riley (undisclosed) is not participating in Saturday's rookie minicamp session due to his recovery from offseason surgery, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Saints head coach Kellen Moore declined to reveal the specifics of Riley's surgery, but he did note that the rookie fourth-round pick's current injury is unrelated to the ankle issue he dealt with during his time at Louisville. The next chance for Riley to take a tangible step forward in his recovery and begin handling on-field work will come during OTAs in late May or mandatory minicamp in June.

Titans head coach Brian Callahan said Saturday that Winston (knee) isn't ready to practice in full at rookie minicamp but will be on the practice field, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.

Winston missed most of the 2024 college season due to a right ACL injury but progressed enough in his recovery to run the 40-yard dash at Penn State's pro day, with Tennessee then selecting him in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Callahan called Winston "limited" to start rookie minicamp, per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, so mandatory minicamp in June may be the next significant chance he'll have to notably increase his on-field activity level.

Walker, who is in rookie camp this week, revealed that he played the 2024 season with a back injury, Alec White and Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site report. "I had a pars defect in my back," Walker said on the night of the 2025 NFL Draft. "I didn't know about it until after the season, really until the combine. We didn't really know what it was, but I feel a 100 percent right now."

Walker, selected in the fourth round, is a giant of a man at 6-foot-7, 331 pounds, and at some point during his college career at Kentucky he was expected to be drafted higher, as he was a lot more productive when healthier in 2023. He'll begin as a rotational defensive lineman among a talented crew that includes Greg Rousseau. Ed Oliver, Joey Bosa and DaQuan Jones, though Walker offers plenty of upside. Perhaps the Bills got themselves a steal now that the back issue is mostly behind him.

Aumavae (Achilles) cleared waivers and reverted to injured reserve Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Aumavae is still recovering from the Achilles tear he suffered last July. The Oregon product was waived by Carolina on Thursday, and since he's cleared waivers, he'll now move to the team's injured reserve.

The Chargers waived Collins on Friday.

The undrafted linebacker from Minnesota missed the Chargers' entire 2024 campaign due to an undisclosed injury, but being waived without an injury designation Friday suggests he's since moved past the issue. Now a free agent, Collins will likely look to catch on with a team in need of special-teams help.
