Chargers
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the Vikings and Patriots made calls to the Chargers to inquire about a trade for Los Angeles QB Justin Herbert. Chargers GM Joe Hortiz noted trading Herbert was never in the realm of possibilities.
“Justin who?” Hortiz said, via ESPN’s Kris Rhim. “No. No, at the combine I had some people ask me would we consider it, and they were quickly shot down. No, that is never an option.”

Chiefs
The Chiefs grabbed 2024 fourth-round TE Jared Wiley in the draft as part of their offensive additions this offseason. Wiley spoke about what he could contribute to the team while acknowledging the elite collection of talent on the roster.
“Yeah, Iโm really confident in myself, especially in the red zone. I felt like that was a spot this past year where I really made my money, so to speak,” Wiley said, via Ed Easton Jr. of the Chiefs Wire. “I try to take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself, especially down there in the red zone. Iโm excited for an opportunity like that and Iโm definitely going to make the most of it.”
“I would say that if you ask anybody and they say that they donโt watch the Chiefs, I would say that theyโre lying to you. You know theyโre a super explosive offense. Theyโre really fun to watch, a big play offense, and like I said earlier (they have) the best quarterback in the NFL, some of the best receivers in the NFL, the best tight end in the NFL. Just watching their offense and how they operate and how they move, itโs so exciting to watch week in and week out, and Iโm really excited to be able to get to be a part of that.”
Raiders
Raiders WR Davante Adams doesn’t regret asking for a trade from Green Bay but said that he is proud of how QB Jordan Love has performed recently.
โIn hindsight, like we talked about, the kid is a f-cking baller, man. Iโm so happy for him,โ Adams said, via PFT. โI havenโt had the chance to truly sit down and talk with him, but I want to tell him at some point โI definitely donโt regret changing, but Iโm super proud of what youโve done. If there was a way I could pull you over here and drag you with me that would have been cool too.โ Because, obviously, we saw what he did at the end of the year. I donโt regret what I did, but, at the same time, itโs definitely you look back on it like โdamn that boy kind of balling right now.โโ
