The Buffalo Bills released wide receiver and return specialist Deonte Harty on Wednesday, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Harty signed a two-year, $9.5 million deal with the team last offseason after spending four seasons with the New Orleans Saints. The release of Harty saves the organization $4.2 million on the cap. A product of Assumption University of Division II, Harty has hauled in 79 of his 113 targets for 943 yards and five touchdowns through the first 56 games of his career. In 2023, he caught just 15 passes for 150 yards and one score. However, he finished fifth among all players in average yards per punt return (12.42) and returned one for a touchdown. He will likely have a decent free-agent market as a return specialist.

The Indianapolis Colts and standout wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. agreed to a three-year, $70 million contract extension on Monday, according to a source. The deal can reach up to $71.5 million maximum and includes $46 million guaranteed. The deal means that Pittman won't play the 2024 season under the franchise tag. It's a major win for both sides. The Colts had no intentions of letting one of the best receivers in the game reach the open market, which is why they used their franchise tag on the 26-year-old to buy them a little extra time to work on an extension. The former second-round pick in 2020 out of USC had a career-high 1,152 receiving yards and four touchdowns on a career-high 109 receptions in 16 games in 2023 and is a no-doubt WR1 in fantasy.
