Free agency is here! Well, almost here at least.
March 15 is the start of the legal tampering window for NFL free agency when teams can agree to deals with free agents, but can’t officially sign them until Wednesday at 4pm EST when the new league year kicks off. All trades, like the ones in involving Jared Goff and Carson Wentz, will become official at the start of the league year.
By that time, every team needs to be under the $182.5 million salary cap, which has been slashed from $198.2 million due to financial complications from the pandemic.
Expect a lot of teams to throw money at the wide receivers hitting the market, considering the talent levels of the players available. Allen Robinson and Chris Godwin were hit with the franchise tag, but Will Fuller, Kenny Golladay, and others will be looking for big time deals.
Players that have been released from their previous contracts are automatically eligible to sign with a team. J.J. Watt already signed a deal with the Arizona Cardinals because the Texans released him.
