Sean Payton recruits RB Tony Jones to BroncosBroncos signed RB Tony Jones to a one-year contract.
Advice: Jones is most recently of the Seahawks, but he played for new Broncos coach Sean Payton for two years in New Orleans. Jones is horribly inefficient in the running game and offers nothing as a receiver, but clearly there is something Payton likes. Even with Javonte Williams' (knee) 2023 health up in the air, we would not expect Jones to become a factor in Denver's backfield. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Panthers releasing Zane Gonzalez after allPanthers released K Zane Gonzalez.
Advice: For some unknown reason it was reported 10 days ago that the Panthers would stick with Gonzalez even after he missed all of 2022 with a groin injury, but the team decided to move forward with Eddy Pineiro on Thursday. The lost season with a leg injury isn't exactly good news for a kicker, but Gonzalez is 27 with a career 80.5 field goal percentage. That's not sterling, but it is enough to make him one of the first calls on the workout circuit. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Panthers keep Eddy Pineiro with two-year dealPanthers re-signed K Eddy Pineiro to a two-year contract.
Advice: Signed to replace an injured Zane Gonzalez last August, ex-Bear and Jet Pineiro went on to convert 33-of-35 field goal attempts. Pineiro doesn't have the biggest leg — he has only five career makes beyond 50 yards — but his overall accuracy makes him a fine option for the rebuilding Panthers. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Gets released ThursdayThe Panthers released Gonzalez on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Advice: After missing most of last season with a groin injury, the Panthers decided to release Gonzalez and re-sign Eddy Pineiro. Pineiro's success in relief of Gonzalez likely led to his release. The 27-year-old is now fully healthy and will seek a new squad for the 2023-24 season. Rotowire.com -
Sticks with PanthersPineiro re-signed with Panthers on a two-year contract Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Advice: It had been several seasons since Pineiro was a full-time kicker in the NFL, but he had a successful 2022 campaign with the Panthers while making 33 of his 35 field-goal attempts. In particular, he showed excellent accuracy from long range by making 15 of his 16 kicks from more than 40 yards away. He was rewarded with a two-year deal and should be locked into the starting role in Carolina for the foreseeable future. Rotowire.com -
Signs with DenverThe Broncos signed Jones to a one-year deal Thursday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Advice: After getting cut midway through the season by the Saints last season, it seems that Jones has found a temporary home in Denver. Jones saw limited action last season, but he could potentially carve out a third-string role behind Samaje Perine. Rotowire.com -
Bucs cut kicker Ryan Succop after three seasonsBucs released K Ryan Succop
Advice: The Bucs' kicker since 2020, 36-year-old Succop converted a good but not elite 82.4 percent of his field goals over the past two seasons. The move creates $3.75 million in cap space. Succop still has enough left in his leg to either earn a new job or become one of the first calls on the workout circuit. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Elliott 'narrows' list to Eagles, Jets, BengalsESPN's Adam Schefter reports free agent RB Ezekiel Elliott has "narrowed" his options down to the Eagles, Jets, and Bengals.
Advice: He'd like to make the decision by the end of next week, per Schefter. Cincinnati would probably profile as Elliott's softest landing spot for fantasy purposes -- assuming that means they'd move on from Joe Mixon and not use Elliott as a goal-line battering ram. Signing with the Eagles might throw a crimp into Rashaad Penny's fantasy profile. The Jets would probably use him over Zonovan Knight as an early-down back. It's surprising that there's this much interest in Elliott coming off a rough 2022 season. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Signs tender with JacksonvillePatterson signed his contract tender with the Jaguars on Thursday, Demetrius Harvey of the Florida Times-Union reports.
Advice: Patterson, who had been an exclusive rights free agent, is thus in a position to reprise his role as Jacksonville's kicker in 2023, with James McCourt currently providing depth at the position. In his first year with the Jaguars last season, the 23-year-old Patterson made 30 of his 35 field-goal attempts and 36 of his 37 extra-point tries. Rotowire.com
