General Free Agency News & Chatter.

Post by Bengals1 » Sun Mar 10, 2024 11:28 pm

Free Agency doesn't officially begin until Wednesday but teams can negotiate with players starting on Monday.

Let's post our Free Agency news and notes in one thread for easy reference.

And..................go!

The Steelers have signed Russell Wilson to a 1-year, $1.2 million deal. Wilson is still set to make nearly $38 million from the Broncos, as he'll look to compete with Kenny Pickett for Pittsburgh's starting position.

Ouch... :o


Ian Rapoport @RapSheet
The final numbers on the #Chiefs deal with Chris Jones: 5 years, $158.75M base including $101M in guarantees. He gets a $30M signing bonus, the first two years guaranteed and his 2026 base salary guarantees in 2025.

$31.75M years average, the highest-paid DT.

I have seen 2 DTs signing, both getting 30M a year plus. If we don't resign Reader we are shit outta luck lol.

And if we lose him I don't want a bum signing just to fill a spot. As I have always said, if other teams are making moves and we ain't, then it gonna show on the field and in games.
I was crazy back when being crazy really meant something.

One source says Tennessee is looking for a high-character veteran who will “set the standard” in practice and on the field.

My favorite thing about "Legal Tampering" starting. Bears agree to terms with D'Andre Swift less than 15 minutes in. Are you to tell me that they weren't already in contact?

From Schefter Bears are giving D’Amdre Swift a three-year, $24.5 million deal, including $15.3 million guaranteed, per his agent Trevon Smith at Athletes Firsr.
