Rodgers also added he wants to play for a team that “wants him.” The Jets announced they’re moving on from Rodgers earlier from February, leaving the veteran to have to find a new team in free agency if he is to continue playing. This will be a situation to monitor when free agency gets underway.

“I just feel like we’re deserving of it. Like, why not? We work all of our life to get paid. Feed me the big bucks,” Cook said. “I want to go chase the highest of the highest, and I’m going to keep doing it. I’m going to stand on what I stand on. And I don’t want to feel like a cancer at all. Because I don’t like all that attention and all that. That’s not me, honestly. I’m just standing on business and what I deserve. That’s it. What I deserve.” Cook is coming off a season where he totaled over 1,200 yards from scrimmage and tied for the league-high of 16 rushing touchdowns. He is heading into his age 26 season.

Stefon Diggs: Texans’ brass ‘always open’ for return
Houston Texans general manager Nick Caserio said the team is “always open” to a return from veteran WR Stefon Diggs in 2025, citing a “good relationship” with Diggs and his representation in an interview with SportsRadio 610.

Diggs had a promising season in 2024 before a Week 8 ACL tear ended his campaign. He had 47 catches for 496 yards with four total touchdowns while averaging 7.8 yards per target, up from his 2023 season. He is a free agent in 2025, and his recovery from his injury could certainly impact his market. He was the half-PPR WR13 through the first seven weeks of the season.
