Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey was one of the most reliable players on the defense last year, but his strong play may not be enough to save him from being cut. A first-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, Humphrey has been one of the NFL’s better cornerbacks since entering the league, making four Pro Bowl teams and earning First-Team All-Pro honors on two separate occasions, including 2024.

The Los Angeles Chargers signed Gus Edwards to be their physical, short-yardage back, but the team could cut him after just one season. An undrafted free agent, Edwards spent the first six years of his career in a supporting role with the Ravens. Taking over for an injured J.K. Dobbins, Edwards recorded career-high numbers in carries (198), yards (810), and touchdowns (13) before cashing in with the Chargers. Unfortunately, he couldn’t carry that momentum into his new home.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr will not accept a pay cut, which means the team could trade him for salary cap relief. Originally signed in 2023, New Orleans brought in the former Raider to provide the combination of upside and stability that Andy Dalton and Jameis Winston could not offer.

Appearing in 14 games while making nine starts, Slayton finished his inaugural campaign with 48 receptions for 740 yards and eight touchdowns on 84 targets.

New Orleans Saints legend Cameron Jordan may have played his final snap with the team, as the eight-time Pro Bowler and one-time All-Pro recently spoke about how he almost requested a trade during the 2024 season. According to Jordan, his low point in the previous season came following the team’s 23-22 loss to the Carolina Panthers. “At the end, I was like, ‘Man, this had to end this way?'” Jordan said, via Sports Illustrated.

The Carolina Panthers had one of the worst defenses in the NFL last year, and they could cut Dane Jackson after one disappointing campaign. Originally entering the league with the Buffalo Bills, Carolina signed the former seventh-round pick to a modest two-year, $8.5 million contract ahead of the 2024 season. Brought on to compete on a wide-open depth chart, Jackson began the year on the injured reserve but failed to make a name for himself once he returned to the field.

The Baltimore Ravens are officially on to 2025, and the first order of business is figuring out what to do with impending free agent Ronnie Stanley. A first-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, the Notre Dame product has served as Baltimore’s starting tackle over the past nine years and earned First-Team All-Pro honors in 2019. While he’s never recaptured that form, he remains a solid, steadying presence along the offensive line.

A longtime fixture on the Seattle Seahawks sideline, Carroll spent the 2024 season out of football but has made his triumphant return to lead a woeful Raiders team. While there are a few talented players on the team, this organization lacks stability at the quarterback position.
