    Shady Wednesday?

    NFL Free Agent frenzy is here!

    Bleck is back from vacation for the launch of NFL free agency. The Miami Dolphins released Tua Tagovailoa this morning to kickoff the day’s news. Wide receiver Alec Pierce is returning to the Indianapolis Colts, will that help lead to a trade for Philadelphia Eagles star A.J. Brown? Future Hall of Fame tight end Travis Kelce is returning to the Kansas City Chiefs, does he just want to avoid staying home all day with Taylor Swift? Speaking of the Chiefs, they add Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker. Can Walker help propel Patrick Mahomes back to the top of the AFC West? With Pierce back in the fold, the Colts traded Michael Pittman to the Pittsburgh Steelers while the Carolina Panthers spent big money to sign edge rusher Jaelan Phillips from the Eagles. Just hours after releasing their quarterback, Miami has a new one agreeing to a huge deal with Malik Willis. Is this an upgrade? Did the Baltimore Ravens give up too much to acquire Las Vegas Raiders star Maxx Crosby? The Raiders record contract to sign center Tyler Linderbaum away from the Ravens sends Abdalla into a tailspin. If former Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray signs with the Vikings, is he an instant upgrade over J.J. McCarthy? Future Hall of Fame receiver Mike Evans is leaving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the San Francisco 49ers, should he be worried about the substation? Learn more about your ad choices.
