Connor Heyward News
Thursday, March 12, 3:26 PM
The Las Vegas Raiders have signed fullback Connor Heyward to a two-year deal worth up to $5.5 million, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. The contract includes $2 million fully guaranteed. Heyward hit free agency earlier this week upon the expiration of his four-year rookie deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's scored a touchdown in three of his four pro seasons, and he posted a respectable 449 scrimmage yards during his time in the black and gold. Of course, handling the football is just a minor component of his role as a fullback. He's far more involved as a blocker, creating opportunities for the quarterback or running backs. He'll now take his talents to Las Vegas, where he'll be tasked with blocking for a young offense that features Ashton Jeanty and will also likely include projected No. 1 pick Fernando Mendoza.

Dalton Kincaid News
Tuesday, March 31, 8:34 PM
Buffalo Bills head coach Joe Brady acknowledged that "load management remains a possibility for frequently injured tight end Dalton Kincaid in 2026," according to Tim Graham of The Athletic. General manager Brandon Beane had previously floated the idea of load management for Kincaid, and now, Brady is echoing that idea. The former first-round pick has missed nine games over the last two seasons, including five in 2025. Even in some of the games where he has been on the field, he was at less than 100 percent. Brady acknowledged that Kincaid had a snap count in some games last year, limiting him to passing downs, which made the offense more predictable. He hasn't finished higher than TE20 since his rookie campaign in 2023, but if the Bills can find a way to keep him healthy for the whole year, he might actually be able to sneak into the top 12.
