Broncos
- Troy Renck mentions Broncos C Matt Paradis as a candidate for a contract extension this offseason, considering that he has not missed a snap in three years and healthy now.
Chiefs
Chiefs GM Brett Veach said that all QB Patrick Mahomes has done since arriving in Kansas City is wow everyone.
“It was something we all expected,” Veach said. “From the day Patrick stepped on the field, in the rookie minicamps, the OTAs, the training camps, he has always wowed us. He has a lot to learn yet. I think he grew tremendously. But having watched him day in and day out just impress us, take to the studying, take to working the craft, he did a tremendous job. I think we knew when the Denver game rolled around that he would absolutely make plays and show all the things that he showed throughout this process.”
- Terez A. Paylor reports that the Chiefs have not reached out to free agent DB Tyrann Mathieu, but he thinks they could be a nice fit if the money somehow works for both sides.
Raiders
New Raiders RB Doug Martin said he’s open to playing any role for his new team, even it’s behind Marshawn Lynch.
“Marshawn is a great back,” Martin said, via Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “He’s definitely made his mark in the league. Whatever role they want me to play, I’m willing to play. I’m not sure how many carries I’ll be getting, how much carries we’ll be splitting.”
- According to Jesse Palmer, Texans CB Johnathan Joseph‘s final decision came on where to sign this offseason came down to the Raiders or returning to Houston. In the end, Palmer writes that “money wasn’t a factor” for Joseph because he did not want to relocate his family from Houston after playing there for seven years.
- Vic Tafur of The Athletic adds that the Raiders were a “close second” to the Texans.
