Teams will navigate their restricted free agents and exclusive rights free agents over the next several days. Here are the latest decisions on the tender front:
RFAs
Non-tendered:
- Bills: TE Quintin Morris
- Panthers: RB Raheem Blackshear
Even the low-end tender is now past $3MM, checking in at $3.26MM. The Bills look to be eyeing a reunion with Morris at a lower rate, with NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport indicating the team wants to re-sign him. A backup behind Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid, Morris has played 45 games over the past three seasons. The 2022 UDFA has 15 career receptions for 146 yards and three touchdowns.
Blackshear served as Carolina’s regular return man on kickoffs and punts. He has also logged 203 career carries, scoring three TDs. Blackshear and Morris will become unrestricted free agents once officially nontendered.
