概要

 Listeners, the 2026 NFL offseason is heating up after a buzzing week at the Indianapolis combine, where top draft prospects impressed with workouts and 40-yard dashes, according to ESPN's latest intel. Free agency negotiations open March 9, with the first franchise tags already placed ahead of today's deadline.

The Jets tagged running back Breece Hall on the transition tag at $11.3 million, joining the Falcons' tag on tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. at $27.3 million and the Cowboys' non-exclusive tag on wide receiver George Pickens after his career-high 93 catches, 1,429 yards, and nine touchdowns in 2025, as ABC7NY reports. Hall's move smartly positions him for a bigger market spike alongside stars like Jahmyr Gibbs and Bijan Robinson.

Quarterback drama dominates: ESPN's Adam Schefter and Matt Bowen note the Vikings eyeing veteran competition for struggling J.J. McCarthy, targeting Geno Smith, Kyler Murray, Tua Tagovailoa, or Kirk Cousins—Smith's low-cost $18.5 million guarantees make him a bridge option. The Raiders may keep Smith to start until draft pick Fernando Mendoza is ready, despite coaching buzz on his untapped potential. Dolphins plan a post-June 1 release of Tagovailoa, eating $99.2 million dead money after failed trades for his $54 million salary. Cardinals likely release Murray before his $19.5 million 2027 guarantee triggers. Falcons will cut Cousins pre-league year to avoid $67.9 million, paying just a $10 million bonus. Ravens aim to extend Lamar Jackson amid cap woes, picking up Zay Flowers' fifth-year option and eyeing safety depth despite Kyle Hamilton.

Colts ponder tagging Daniel Jones or Alec Pierce, leaning transition on Jones to secure him long-term. Jets may tag Hall fully if no deal by deadline. RBs like Kenneth Walker III could leave Seattle amid interest, Travis Etienne Jr. hits market untagged. Bills target WRs like Rashid Shaheed; Raiders like him too. Eagles rebuff trade offers for DeVonta Smith at high price. No tush push ban proposed this year, per NFL exec Troy Vincent and 6ABC—last year's effort failed 22-10, and defenses are adapting.

Elsewhere, 41-year-old kicker Nick Folk plans to play on, per NFL.com. Cowboys eye kicker Brandon Aubrey extension or second-round tender. Dolphins plan extensions for De'Von Achane, Aaron Brewer, Jordyn Brooks. Panthers hopeful on Bryce Young's rehab.

For die-hards, cap space primers from CBS Sports show teams prepping for March 11 league year start, with RBs and QBs reshaping rosters.
