The Philadelphia Eagles have traded star wide receiver A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots in exchange for a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick. Both teams have been linked for a potential trade through most of the offseason, and the agreement has finally been reached. Brown began his career with the Titans but has since moved to the Eagles, where he turned in four-straight 1,000-yard campaigns. During the 2022 and 2023 seasons, Brown tallied at least 1,400 yards in each campaign. The veteran pass catcher will now operate as the clear WR1 in a New England offense and catch passes from Drake Maye, who was the MVP runner-up during the 2025 campaign. In Philadelphia, Jalen Hurts will now look to DeVonta Smith to be his WR1, and potentially first-round pick Makai Lemon as the No. 2 option.

Ten-time Pro Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson is reportedly finalizing a deal with CBS to become part of the network's in-studio pregame show alongside James Brown, Nate Burleson, and Bill Cowher, according to NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The Super Bowl champion and 2020 Walter Payton Man of the Year was said to have been weighing his options in a backup role, but will step away from the field for at least the 2026 season. Wilson has started over 200 NFL games, most recently with the New York Giants, but is best remembered for his time with the Seahawks. Should the move into the media signal his official retirement from the game, his 46,966 career passing yards would rank 16th in league history.

The New York Giants have agreed to terms with wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster on a one-year deal after he took part in a Monday morning workout with the team. Veterans Odell Beckham Jr. and Braxton Berrios were part of the same workout that has now reportedly resulted in contracts for all three. With the status of 2024 first-round pick Malik Nabers unclear for the start of the season after missing 13 games in 2025 with a serious knee injury, the Giants have added an influx of depth to the position after signing Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin III earlier in the offseason and spending a third-round pick on Malachi Fields. Smith-Schuster will reunite with offensive coordinator Matt Nagy, who held the same position during the former Pro Bowler's second stint with the Chiefs, in which he caught 51 passes for 576 yards and three touchdowns across 31 games.

Veteran wide receiver Braxton Berrios has agreed to a one-year contract with the New York Giants, as reported by NFL Insider Adam Schefter. Berrios took part in a Monday morning workout with the team, alongside fellow veterans Odell Beckham Jr. and JuJu Smith-Schuster, and all three reportedly agreed to deals shortly thereafter. Knee and hamstring injuries have limited Berrios to only 10 games played over the past two seasons with the Dolphins and Texans, but the former All-Pro punt returner offers special teams upside as well as receiver depth should 2024 first-round pick Malik Nabers miss any time to begin the year after tearing his ACL in 2025. The Giants have now added six new faces to the receiver room, including veterans Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin III, and third-round pick Malachi Fields.
