Every trade and signing calls take
251–275 of 974
Drake Maye to move — “contract extension in 2027; one of the three should reset the quarterback market”
At least one of the three should reset the quarterback market.
Joe Alt to move to Los Angeles Chargers
If offensive tackle Joe Alt joins Herbert as the only Chargers first-round pick with an early extension, he will probably become the NFL's highest-paid offensive lineman.

Trevon Diggs to move to Seattle Seahawks
CBS Sports senior reporter Matt Zenitz reports Diggs is expected to sign with Seattle on Wednesday after he tried out for the team on Tuesday. It's a one-year deal, according to ESPN.

ESPN is reporting that Arnold is still expected to sign with Seattle.
Terrion Arnold to move to Detroit Lions
Unless the Lions have tried to void his guaranteed pay for 2026 and 2027 — and if Arnold loses the inevitable grievance — Arnold will be paid by Detroit.

Dre Greenlaw to move to San Francisco 49ers
Greenlaw has more to prove, but even if he is close to his pre-injury level, the 49ers will likely give him an extension to his one-year prove it deal.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 19, 2026 Jarrett Patterson to move to Los Angeles Chargers
With all of these other individuals having a role on this roster, the Texans could look to extract value from Patterson and send him to the Chargers. Cost Estimation: 2028 6th Round Selection
Austin Corbett to move to Los Angeles Chargers
He is an obvious trade candidate for the Bolts, a team that is in need of a veteran calming presence across the interior offensive line. Cost Estimation: 2028 7th Round Selection
Mason Rudolph to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
"Mason Rudolph's a free agent," Dulac said. "Now I would expect them to re-sign him." ... he'd "expect" the Steelers to explore re-signing Rudolph once he reaches free agency next offseason
Marte Mapu to move — “signs with the Astros”
I I could certainly see him making the move, though. I can see it. Making Marte adding Marte.
Chris Godwin Jr. to move to Tampa Bay Buccaneers
barring a miraculous turnaround in his age-30 season, Godwin won't be playing out the final year of his deal in 2027 when Tampa Bay can save $13.7 million by releasing him.
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
Donald, who has not played in the NFL since 2023, would appear to be leaning toward a return. Otherwise, it's unlikely he would not continue to work out at the team facility.
Krys Barnes to move to Washington Commanders
the team is expected to sign linebacker Krys Barnes after working him out earlier in the day
- PendingSteve KubitzaTrade and Signing Calls
Za'Darius Smith to move to Atlanta Falcons
Kevin Stefanski may steal Za'Darius Smith away from the Browns ... Smith is technically coming back from retirement and will want to go to the best spot for him. The Falcons may simply present a more stable option right now.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 17, 2026 Von Miller to move to Dallas Cowboys

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 16, 2026 Harrison Smith to move to Minnesota Vikings
a sense lingered that veteran safety Harrison Smith could return to Minnesota for a fifteenth season. Now that Adams is likely lost for the year, the Vikings could make an effort to get Smith back in the fold.
- PendingSteve KrebsTrade and Signing Calls
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
They also added serious depth to their defense with in Myles Garrett and a very probable Aaron Donald return.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 16, 2026 Stetson Bennett to move to Los Angeles Rams
It's a next situation where they trade Stephan Bennett, or they try to.

Ceyair Wright to move to Cincinnati Bengals
Don't be shocked if he finds his way back to the Bengals at a later date, especially if they need cornerback help later this season.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 16, 2026 Maxx Crosby to move to Chicago Bears
I think Max Crosby ends up on the Browns and or excuse me, the Bears in the middle of the season... Max Crosby to the Bears.
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
It still seems inevitable that Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald will emerge from two years of retirement to play alongside Myles Garrett.
