Done deal: The Bills are sending a 2026 second-round pick to the Bears for WR D.J. Moore and a 2026 fifth-round pick, per sources.
A pick swap that gives Chicago extra draft ammo and Buffalo a new top receiver.
D.J. Moore's role in Chicago was reduced in 2025, when he had a career-low 50 catches for 682 yards. Moore wanted an opportunity to be a WR1 and now he'll get it in Buffalo.

Four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers to @patmcafeeshow.bsky.social: “Anyone on here expecting me to make some big decision on here, just turn it off right now.”
But Rodgers is effusive in praising new Steeelrs coach Mike McCarthy. Says there’s no deadline. Conversations to be had down the line.
They weren’t first-round picks. They’ve never been to a Pro Bowl. And now, they’re about to get paid.
Ten names to know before the Free Agency Frenzy begins on Monday:

The Chiefs trading Trent McDuffie to the Rams is reminiscent of the Tyreek Hill trade in 2022.
Hill was in his prime, but KC traded him to Miami for picks plus cash and cap flexibility that helped them build another Super Bowl winner. Brett Veach going back to the playbook.

The Colts are placing the transition tag on QB Daniel Jones, sources say.
The sides have been in negotiations on a multiyear contract and those talks will continue. The one-year transition tender is worth $37.833 million and gives Indianapolis the right to match any offer sheet.
The Bengals are not franchise tagging star pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson, per me and @tompelissero.bsky.social
One of the NFL’s best is free.
Veteran kicker Nick Folk plans to play a 19th NFL season, per source, and is expected to be one of the top options on the market at age 41.
Since 2023, Folk is the NFL's most accurate kicker (96.3%), missing just one FG each season, going 18-of-20 from 50+ and 75-of-77 on XPs.
While there was speculation the Jets could use the transition tag on Breece Hall, the franchise tag is less than $3 million more and assures he'll stay in New York.
