- Signed QB Gardner Minshew - one-year deal.
Patrick Mahomes has a new backup quarterback. The Chiefs decided to let Carson Wentz reach free agency, while Gardner Minshew arrives following an injury-laden season with the Las Vegas Raiders. He's known as a smart quarterback who could be a good backup for any team.
Las Vegas Raiders
- Signed RB Raheem Mostert (one-year, $2.1 million)
With Alexander Mattison moving to the Miami Dolphins, Mostert went the other way, as one of the NFL's veteran running backs joined forces with Geno Smith on the Las Vegas Raiders. The Dolphins released Mostert for cap concerns, as he remains a solid running back.
Los Angeles Chargers
- No significant signings reported on Day 4.
Los Angeles Rams
- No significant signings reported on Day 4.
Miami Dolphins
- Signed RB Alexander Mattison (one-year deal)
The Dolphins decided to cut ties with running back Raheem Mostert, who's now a member of the Las Vegas Raiders. Curiously, Miami signed Alexander Mattison, who spent last season in Las Vegas as a short-yardage back. He represents an interesting change of skill set when compared to what Miami already has.
Minnesota Vikings
- Expected to release C Garrett Bradbury
On Thursday, it was revealed that, if the Vikings can't find a trade partner for Bradbury, they'll release the center, who has been a starter in the interior since the 2019 season.
- Traded G Ed Ingram to the Houston Texans
Another offensive line move was made: swing guard Ed Ingram was traded to the Houston Texans for a sixth-round pick. The Vikings are looking to upgrade the protection for their quarterbacks after a tough 2024 season.
New England Patriots
- Released C David Andrews
The Patriots decided to cut one of their longtime players, as Andrews struggled in 2024 after many years as one of the best players on the Patriots' interior offensive lineman. He spent nine seasons in New England, playing in 121 NFL games, while also being part of the most recent team that won a Super Bowl.
New Orleans Saints
- Signed CB Isaac Yiadom (three-year deal, $9 million)
Yiadom returns to the Saints after spending the 2024 season with the San Francisco 49ers. He played for the franchise in 2022 and 2023, and will add depth to the cornerback position after Paulson Adebo departed to the New York Giants.
New York Giants
- No significant signings reported on Day 4.
New York Jets
- Re-signed LB Jamin Davis (one-year deal)
The former Washington Commanders linebacker will remain in New York following a one-year extension. The former first-round pick was claimed off NFL waivers by the Jets in the final day of 2024.
Philadelphia Eagles
- Signed EDGE Josh Uche (one-year deal)
The Eagles lost key defensive linemen in free agency, as Josh Sweat and Milton Williams left the team. With Brandon Graham expected to retire from the NFL, Philadelphia added pass-rushing depth by signing Uche, whom they defeated with the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. He had an 11.5 sack season with the Patriots in 2022.
Pittsburgh Steelers
- Signed QB Mason Rudolph (two-year, $8 million deal)
Rudolph returns to the franchise in 2025 to play as a backup, as the Steelers remain waiting for Aaron Rodgers' decision. He knows the offensive scheme and is familiar with the franchise, as Pittsburgh drafted him in 2018. He spent the 2024 season with the Tennessee Titans.
San Francisco 49ers
- No significant signings reported on Day 4.
Seattle Seahawks
- No significant signings reported on Day 4.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Signed CB Kindle Vildor to a one-year deal
The Buccaneers continue to explore signings for their secondary, as Vildor arrives from the Detroit Lions after solid outings as a backup in 2024.
Tennessee Titans
- Signed QB Brandon Allen (one-year deal)
The Titans have important decisions to make regarding the quarterback position. But the backup position is already settled, with Brandon Allen arriving after spending the past two years as Brock Purdy's backup in San Francisco.
Washington Commanders
- Re-signed WR Noah Brown (one-year, $4.5 million)
After arriving in Washington as a former Houston Texans member, Brown did not stand out but was an important depth receiver. He's most known for his Hail Mary catch against the Chicago Bears, but he's a good vertical threat to stress opposing NFL defenses with Jayden Daniels as his quarterback.
Conclusion
The NFL had a day mostly composed of small deals, as the quarterback market still awaits decisions from Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson to move up the pieces.
However, some interesting signings were still made, especially regarding backup quarterbacks. Gardner Minshew has proven himself an NFL quarterback, and the Chiefs have a good backup to Patrick Mahomes once again.
