NFL Free Agency Sees Major Moves Reshaping Teams for 2025

Key signings and trades highlight a transformative start to the NFL offseason, with quarterbacks, linemen, and defensive stars finding new homes.

The Seattle Seahawks signed quarterback Sam Darnold to a three-year, $100.5 million deal, a move receiving mixed reviews due to his inconsistent 2024 performance despite a career year with the Vikings.
Justin Fields joined the New York Jets on a two-year, $40 million contract, with analysts noting his potential to thrive in a run-heavy offense under new head coach Aaron Glenn.
The Chicago Bears revamped their offensive line by acquiring guards Joe Thuney and Jonah Jackson via trade and signing center Drew Dalman, aiming to protect quarterback Caleb Williams after a league-high 68 sacks last season.
The New England Patriots made significant defensive upgrades, including signing edge rusher Harold Landry and cornerback Carlton Davis, though questions remain about their offensive skill positions.
High-profile defensive departures reshaped several teams, with the Eagles losing key players from their Super Bowl-winning roster and the Vikings bolstering their defensive line with Jonathan Allen and Byron Murphy.
