    • Not expected for start of OTAs
      Higgins is not expected to sign his franchise tender by the end of the week, which will make him ineligible to report in time for the start of OTAs next week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

      Advice: Higgins formally requested a trade from Cincinnati after the team placed the franchise tag on him prior to free agency. He appeared to have a change of heart in April, as the wideout hinted that he anticipated playing for the Bengals in 2024 at his youth camp, per Ben Baby of ESPN.com. It remains to be seen if that will occur via the franchise tag or the long-term extension the pass catcher has been seeking. As of now, it looks like this conflict will linger into OTAs.

    • Schefter: Tee Higgins yet to sign franchise tender
      ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Bengals WR Tee Higgins has not signed his franchise tender.

      Advice: The ramifications of the disgruntled veteran wide receiver having yet to sign his franchise tender means he will be unable to report to the team for organized team activities next week. We’re still a long way off from considering Higgins a potential holdout candidate even after he requested a trade in March and has yet to sign his franchise tender, although that potential grows with each passing day. Even so, the idea of missing out on a $21.816 million pay day while on the franchise tag in 2024 makes in unlikely Higgins misses a snap when his paycheck is on the line. Higgins averaged a career-high 15.6 yards per reception in 2024 but missed significant time with multiple injuries, likely prompting his decision to leave the tender unsigned through OTAs.

    • Announces retirement
      Parker announced his retirement from the NFL on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

      Advice: Two months after signing a one-year contract with the Eagles, Parker has had a change of heart on a 10th season in the league. The 31-year-old cited spending more time with his family as the primary factor in his decision. He spent his first seven seasons in Miami before playing the previous two in New England. The Louisville product's most productive season came in 2019, as he tallied 1,202 yards and nine touchdowns on 72 receptions for the Dophins. He was projected to compete for a role behind A.J. Brown (knee) and DeVonta Smith at wide receiver in the upcoming season. Rotowire.com Today, 5:08 pm

    • Continues to progress in rehab
      Jones (knee) took part in 7-on-7 drills during Monday's OTA, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

      Advice: After signing a four-year, $160 million contract with the Giants last offseason, Jones didn't live up to increase in pay in 2023, mostly due to a neck injury and then a torn ACL that he suffered in his right knee Week 9. Overall, he completed 108 of 160 passes (67.5 percent) for 909 yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions while taking 40 carries for 206 yards and another TD in six appearances. Since undergoing surgery Nov. 22, Jones progressed to throwing by late February and running and some cutting by early May, with the aim to receive full medical clearance by training camp. He's expected to retake the reins of the offense once he's healthy, but two of the options on the quarterback depth chart behind him (Drew Lock and Tommy DeVito) have starting experience under their belts.

    • Daniel Jones participates in 7-on-7 drills Monday
      Giants QB Daniel Jones participated in 7-on-7 drills Monday.

      Advice: Jones’ presence on the field for 7-on-7 drills Monday seems to confirm previous reports that the Giants signal caller would be ready for the start of preseason camp as he works his way back from a torn ACL suffered in November. Jones and the rest of the New York offense got one of the top playmakers in this year’s draft when the team selected WR Malik Nabers in the first round, a player that should immediately step into the primary pass-catching role in his rookie season. The biggest concern for the Giants offense had been whether or not Nabers would get any real repetitions with Jones prior to the start of the regular season, something that now seems to be a moot point.

    • Stafford on the field for OTAs Monday
      Rams QB Matthew Stafford was present for the opening day of OTAs Monday.

      Advice: Stafford’s presence for the opening day of OTAs is notable considering the veteran quarterback had expressed intent to seek more guaranteed money in his contract this offseason, placing doubt in his status for organized team activities leading up to camp in the process. It also speaks to his level of health heading into the 2024 season after Stafford battled multiple injuries the previous two years. Either way, consider it a slight boost to Stafford’s fantasy value for the coming year. Rotoworld Today, 3:41 pm
