I’ve been posting NFL Free Agent Rumors and NFL Draft Rumors daily on each page. These are listed per team, so click on each link if you’re interested in seeing all of the rumors from your favorite team.
However, I received a suggestion to post all of the latest rumors in a daily format for those interested in multiple teams. That’s what I’ve done on this new NFL Rumors page. Follow @walterfootball for NFL Rumors Updates.

The Falcons are a major contender for Kirk Cousins. – Jordan Schultz, Bleacher Report
It’s an obvious fit. The Falcons have $37 million in cap space and have a huge need at quarterback.
NFL Rumors – March 2 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
There are indications that Kirk Cousins will sign with the Falcons. – Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk
Florio says they are credible indications, so they must be. Cousins is a great fit for the Falcons, who are really just a quarterback and a pass rusher away from being a Super Bowl contender.

The Falcons are a dark horse to sign Baker Mayfield. – James Palmer, NFL Network

NFL Rumors – March 11 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
The Ravens have interest in Derrick Henry. – Josina Anderson, CBS Sports

NFL Rumors – March 10 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
The Ravens, Bears and Chargers are serious suitors for Saquon Barkley. – Jordan Raanan, ESPN
The Chargers and Ravens have huge holes at running back. The Bears have some decent players at the position such as Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson, so they don’t need a running back all that much. However, Chicago has a ton of cap space, so it can afford a luxury signing like Barkley.
NFL Rumors – Feb 20 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
The Ravens will target a running back with pedigree this offseason. – Jeremy Fowler, ESPN
Saquon Barkley, Derrick Henry, Josh Jacobs and Austin Ekeler are some of the obvious names that could be signed.
Kevin Zeitler is unlikely to return to the Ravens. – Jeff Zrebiec, The Athletic
The Ravens are barely over the cap, so they’re letting go of a talented guard. Luckily for the Ravens, this upcoming draft class is packed with offensive line talent.
Chicago Bears:

Comment on these NFL Rumors
Christian Wilkins is a top target for the Browns, Lions, Texans, and Vikings. – Dianna Marie Russini, The Athletic
The Lions are the closest team to a Super Bowl win, so it would be nice to see Wilkins go there. However, Texas is a tax-free state, so Houston might be Wilkins’ preferred destination.
Dallas Cowboys:
NFL Rumors – March 1 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
Tyron Smith is unlikely to re-sign in Dallas. – Ian Rapoport, NFL Network
Smith is a great talent, but his health hasn’t been the same since his infamous bulging disc.
Denver Broncos:
NFL Rumors – Feb 20 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
No one around the league expects Russell Wilson to return to Denver. – Jeremy Fowler, ESPN
The writing was on the wall when the Broncos benched Wilson in favor of Jarrett Stidham to finish the season. Wilson was dreadful with the Broncos unless he was playing from way behind in garbage time. Denver needs a new quarterback.

NFL Rumors – March 11 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
The Raiders and Redskins have interest in Austin Ekeler. – Josina Anderson, CBS Sports
Ekeler is coming off a down year in which he got hurt in Week 1 and never fully recovered. He’d be a nice fit for the Raiders in the wake of Josh Jacobs’ departure.

New York better not give up too much because it has tons of needs. Burns would be a huge upgrade in the pass-rushing department, however.

NFL Rumors – March 9 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
The Eagles have given Hasson Reddick permission to seek a trade. – Ian Rapoport, NFL Network
It’s unclear why the Eagles would want such a great edge rusher to leave the team, but they have plenty of talent on their defensive line.
Pittsburgh Steelers:
Mitch Morse visited the Steelers. – Jeremy Fowler, ESPN
Pittsburgh’s in dire need of a center, and Morse needs a job after getting cut by the cap-strapped Bills. This would be a nice fit.
NFL Rumors – March 8 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
The Steelers are open to hearing trade offers for Diontae Johnson. – Dianna Marie Russini, ESPN
The cycle of Steeler receivers: They’re drafted in the second round. They have great rookie years. They fall out of favor with the coaching staff. They’re then traded.

Why?
NFL Rumors – Feb 20 Updates:
Comment on these NFL Rumors
Mike Tomlin is a big fan of Justin Fields. – Adam Schefter, ESPN

The Raiders and Redskins have interest in Austin Ekeler. – Josina Anderson, CBS Sports
Ekeler is coming off a down year in which he got hurt in Week 1 and never fully recovered. He’d be a nice fit for the Raiders in the wake of Josh Jacobs’ departure.
