Eagles | Nelson Agholor unlikely back on current deal
Philadelphia Eagles WR Nelson Agholor likely will not play at his current cap number of $9.387 million in 2019, according to beat writer Jeff McLane. The team picked up his fifth-year option last year, but it's likely they'll re-work his contract or release him. McLane adds that the team could try to trade him, but his salary will probably scare off teams.

Eagles | Nate Sudfeld to compete for backup job
Philadelphia Eagles QB Nate Sudfeld will have 'to compete for (the backup) spot', even with QB Nick Foles out of the picture, head coach Doug Pederson indicated. That means the Eagles are likely to bring in a veteran to challenge Sudfeld for the backup job behind QB Carson Wentz. Sudfeld is a restricted free agent and the team has until March 13 to tender him a qualifying offer.

Browns | No timetable for Kareem Hunt suspension
Cleveland Browns RB Kareem Hunt is expected to be suspended for his off-field issues, but NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy said there is no timetable for a decision.

NFL | Four teams interested in Dwayne Allen
Free-agent TE Dwayne Allen (Patriots) has received preliminary interest from the Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins and Detroit Lions, according to a source.

Broncos | Denver has no interest in Antonio Brown
Contrary to an earlier report, Pittsburgh Steelers WR Antonio Brown has not been and will not likely be a player of interest for the Denver Broncos, according to Mike Klis of 9News.

Footballguys view: This contradicts earlier reports indicating the Broncos were one of the teams most intrigued by the veteran receiver. The move never made sense for Denver as they have a duo of young receivers (Courtland Sutton, DaeSean Hamilton) and Emmanuel Sanders as their top three targets.

Footballguys view: The Bills could use some help at the position, especially since they moved on from Charles Clay earlier this offseason. Allen is a good blocker and could be more of a receiver than the Patriots used him as over the last two seasons (only 13 catches combined).

Eagles | Philly talked to Rodney Anderson
Oklahoma RB Rodney Anderson formally interviewed with the Philadelphia Eagles at the NFL Combine. Anderson didn't run at the Combine and won't run at his Pro Day as he continues to recover from a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

Footballguys view: Anderson's college career at Oklahoma can be summed up by the saying 'what might have been.' Injuries in multiple seasons derailed what was looking to be a promising time with the Sooners. He's flashed enough power and ability at 220 pounds to get interest as a fourth-round pick if his medical tests are positive.

Arizona Cardinals QB Josh Rosen was inquired about by multiple teams at the NFL Combine, but the Cardinals have not responded to any inquiries and gave no indication that Rosen is currently on the trading block. That does not mean that he will not eventually be traded or at least be shopped, however.

Footballguys view: Will they or won't they? The Cardinals seemed destined to take QB Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) no.1 overall just a week ago at the Scouting Combine. Now, it seems like that might have cooled just a bit. There's no telling what's going to happen but reports indicate teams are checking in on the availability of Rosen.

Cowboys | Jason Witten officially back
Dallas Cowboys TE Jason Witten was officially signed to a one-year, $2 million contract Wednesday, March 6. Witten can make up to $5 million, however. The Cowboys had to release Witten from the Reserve/Retired list before making the signing official.

Colts | Tyrell Williams of interest to Colts
Free-agent WR Tyrell Williams (Chargers) is expected to be pursued by the Indianapolis Colts in free agency. Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports anticipates Williams will demand $12 million annually.

Williams has a nice size/speed combination and is looking for a larger role than he had with the Chargers in recent years. It seems like a good fit on paper, we'll see if this comes to fruition.

Footballguys view: The news about the Raiders loving him has been out there for quite some time. The Cardinals could be moving on from Josh Rosen, and Murray fits what new head coach Kliff Kingsbury wants to do on offense. Washington just needs to find a starter since Alex Smith may never play football again. Stay tuned.

Redskins | Washington agrees to acquire Case Keenum
Denver Broncos QB Case Keenum will be acquired by the Washington Redskins in exchange for a 2020 sixth-round draft choice, according to a source.

The Broncos will pay $3.5 million of his 2019 salary, while the Redskins will pay the other $3.5 million. He will also receive a $500,000 bonus from the Broncos.

Footballguys view: Washington has to have a starter in place while Alex Smith tries to come back from his horrific leg injury. Smith may never play football again, so don't be surprised if Washington adds a quarterback in the draft too. Keenum failed as a starter with the Broncos for one year and will compete with Colt McCoy to be Washington's starter in 2019.
