As the 2025 NFL Draft approaches, teams are actively reshaping their rosters to prepare for the new season. Notably, the Cleveland Browns have signed veteran quarterback Joe Flacco, while the Seattle Seahawks brought back Drew Lock, signaling a focus on experienced backups. The Washington Commanders added journeyman quarterback Josh Johnson, and the Houston Texans re-signed tight end Irv Smith Jr., who was previously released earlier this year.
In other key transactions, the Dallas Cowboys secured offensive guard Saahdiq Charles to bolster their line, and the Chicago Bears signed cornerback Nahshon Wright to strengthen their secondary. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Rams re-signed linebacker Troy Reeder, and the Indianapolis Colts released kicker Matt Gay, hinting at possible shifts in special teams strategy going into training camp.
On the draft front, Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden has been generating buzz. Despite a recent ankle sprain that affected his performance during drills, Golden still recorded a blazing 4.29-second 40-yard dash—one of the fastest times among receiver prospects. His combination of speed and agility positions him as a breakout candidate in this year’s draft, making him a hot prospect for teams seeking offensive firepower.
