Jared Goff News
Wednesday, March 11, 6:32 AM
The Detroit Lions have restructured quarterback Jared Goff's contract to create $32 million in 2026 cap space, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Detroit's maneuvering could mean that the team is looking to make a big splash, although most of the league's top free agents have already come off the board. The Lions have needs at premium defensive positions such as edge rusher and cornerback. However, the team's biggest hole may be at left tackle, as Detroit released longtime starter Taylor Decker earlier this offseason. It's not entirely clear what the Lions' plans are, and they could simply be looking to create more flexibility for a series of smaller moves. The 31-year-old Goff remains under contract with the team through 2028 and appears to be locked in as the team's QB1 for at least the next few seasons.

Baker Mayfield News
Tuesday, March 24, 10:40 AM
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are expected to discuss a contract extension with quarterback Baker Mayfield this offseason, league sources told Jeff Howe of The Athletic. Mayfield's three-year, $100 million deal expires in March of 2027. Howe adds that Mayfield's next contract won't necessarily be team-friendly after he has proven his worth as the team's franchise QB. He is currently the 16th-highest-paid signal-caller at $33.3 million per year. Mayfield and the Bucs have both publicly stated their desire to stay together beyond his current contract. It remains to be seen if Tampa is willing to give him at least $50 million annually after he regressed in 2025 with totals of 3,693 passing yards, 26 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions in 17 starts. Still, Lowe thinks he'd be justified in asking for four years and $224 milion or five years and $280 million, with at least half fully guaranteed. In fantasy football, Mayfield will be considered a low-end QB1/high-end QB2 option, with his upside limited now that he doesn't have future Hall of Fame receiver Mike Evans to throw to.
