Nick Mullens News
Monday, March 10, 4:55 PM
The Jacksonville Jaguars agreed to terms with free-agent quarterback Nick Mullens on Monday on a two-year, $6.5 million deal with $3 million guaranteed, a source told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Mullens will be the new backup to Trevor Lawrence in head coach Liam Coen's first year in Duvall. The 29-year-old Mullens will reunite with new Jaguars assistant coach Grant Udinski after the two worked together with the Minnesota Vikings. Mullens spent the last three years in Minnesota, appearing in 13 games (three starts) while throwing for 1,568 yards, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions. He only appeared in four games in relief last year with Sam Darnold having a career year. Mullens will provide veteran backup depth behind Lawrence, though, having appeared in 33 games (20 starts) in his seven years in the NFL with Minnesota, San Francisco and Cleveland.

Tua Tagovailoa News
Thursday, March 5, 8:21 AM
The Miami Dolphins have been unable to find any takers in a trade for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and his contract, according to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports. One high-ranking team executive told Jones that he had considered taking on Tagavailoa, but only if Miami "would send a first-round pick to take on the freight of his contract." Jones writes that the odds have been overwhelmingly in favor of the Dolphins exercising Tagovailoa's 2026 option at some point after the start of the new league year and then releasing him as a post-June 1 designation, which will spread the $99 million dead-salary cap hit over two seasons and allow the former first-rounder to sign with another team on the veteran minimum. Because of Tua's history of playing poorly in bad weather, a warm-weather team or a team that plays in a dome makes the most sense. The 28-year-old's declining play over the last two years and history with head injuries mean he'll most likely be competing for a starting job in 2026 in a best-case scenario.
