Marcus Mariota News
Monday, March 9, 1:25 PM
The Washington Commanders re-signed backup quarterback Marcus Mariota to a one-year, $7 million deal on Monday, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Mariota can make up to $11 million with performance-based incentives. In terms of experience and ability, the 32-year-old veteran is one of the top backup QB options in the NFL. Starter Jayden Daniels battled multiple injuries and missed significant time in 2025, leading to Mariota playing in 11 games (eight starts). The former second overall pick by the Tennessee Titans in 2015 out of Oregon completed 61.2% of his passes for 1,695 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He also had 297 rushing yards and another score on the ground. The Commanders are hoping that Mariota won't see as much of the field in 2026, though, which would mean Daniels has been able to stay healthy in his third NFL campaign.

Josh Allen News
Wednesday, March 11, 6:58 AM
The Buffalo Bills have restructured quarterback Josh Allen's contract to create $12 million in 2026 cap space, per ESPN's Field Yates. It's not entirely clear what Buffalo is looking to do with the cap flexibility, but the team now has a little more wiggle room as it looks to build out a Super Bowl-caliber roster. Buffalo has a few notable pieces of their 2025 roster, such as edge rusher Joey Bosa and linebacker Matt Milano, who are currently lingering in free agency. The team could simply be looking to bring players back into the fold, or could be angling for a sizable addition. As far as Allen is concerned, the 29-year-old signal caller remains under contract with Buffalo through the end of the current decade. His long-term contract structure with the Bills affords the team the flexibility to make these types of moves.
