**[City, State] –** The NFL offseason is in full swing, with a flurry of signings, trades, and a surprising comeback announcement dominating headlines. Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup, who abruptly retired last year at age 28, is returning to the league in 2025. Gallup, known for his breakout 2019 season, hopes a period of recovery from an ACL injury will revitalize his career. He’ll be looking for a team in what is shaping up to be a competitive receiver market.
Meanwhile, several major trades have reshaped rosters: The Cleveland Browns are acquiring quarterback Kenny Pickett from Philadelphia in exchange for Dorian Thompson-Robinson and a draft pick. The Washington Commanders are finalizing a trade for Houston Texans left tackle Laremy Tunsil.
Free agency has seen a number of significant signings, including:
* Grady Jarrett (three years, $43.5 million) with the Chicago Bears.
* Josh Sweat (four years, $76.4 million) with the Arizona Cardinals.
* Justin Fields (two years, $40 million) with the New York Jets.
* Sam Darnold (three years, $100.5 million) with the Seattle Seahawks.
* Milton Williams (four years, $26 million annually) with an undisclosed team.
* D.J. Reed (terms undisclosed) with the Detroit Lions.
* Carlton Davis (three years, $60 million) with the New England Patriots.
* Jimmy Garoppolo (one year) with the Los Angeles Rams.
* Chris Godwin (three years, $66 million) and Haason Reddick (one year) with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The activity underscores a busy start to the NFL offseason, with teams aggressively pursuing upgrades to their rosters. The coming weeks promise even more movement as teams finalize their preparations for the 2025 season.
