As the NFL offseason moves toward training camp at the end of July, team reporters for getmoresports compiled updates on players who could be in line for contract extensions. The roundup began with the Buffalo Bills and continues through all 32 clubs, with reporters sharing where talks stand for notable candidates.
Buffalo has shown mutual interest in keeping starting right guard O’Cyrus Torrence long term, according to Bills reporter Alaina Getzenberg. Torrence attended all offseason workouts open to the media and has acknowledged the business side of the league. General manager Brandon Beane has a track record of completing extensions just before or early in the season.
In Miami, general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan identified linebackers and other core pieces to prioritize, and reporter Marcel Louis-Jacques noted that De’Von Achane and center Aaron Brewer have already been extended. That leaves linebacker Jordyn Brooks as the lone unsigned “pillar” Sullivan listed; Brooks has expressed interest in staying long term, and Louis-Jacques wrote that it is likely Miami will reach an agreement.
New England cornerback Christian Gonzalez told reporters after the first day of mandatory minicamp that “we got a long time to the season,” Mike Reiss reported. The sides are expected to continue extension discussions, with the next checkpoint being veteran reporting for training camp on July 24. Gonzalez would face fines for not reporting but could become a hold-in if no deal is reached by that date.
The New York Jets exercised Will McDonald IV’s fifth-year option for 2027 worth $13.75 million, giving the team control for two years at a total of $16.75 million, according to Rich Cimini. Cimini wrote there is no rush for a long-term deal, with the Jets planning to let McDonald play out the 2026 season and reassess; he added that the team has largely finished its extension work for the year after extending right guard Joe Tippmann.
Baltimore picked up receiver Zay Flowers’ fifth-year option, which will pay $27.298 million in 2027, reporter Jami wrote. General manager Eric DeCosta has said the goal is to secure a long-term deal, and Jami added that Flowers’ eventual extension would likely average over $35 million per season, placing him among the four highest-paid wide receivers if that comes to pass.
