The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that the Minnesota Vikings decision-makers are still evaluating all of their options at quarterback, including the possibility of signing free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers. The four-time MVP is intrigued by the idea of playing in Minnesota, where he'd get to play his old team, the Green Bay Packers, twice a year. However, the 41-year-old future Hall of Famer is primarily choosing between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Giants after being officially labeled a post-June 1 cut by the New York Jets on Wednesday. Rodgers' decision is reportedly not about money at all but rather team fit. Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones both left Minnesota in free agency, leaving last year's first-rounder, J.J. McCarthy (knee) as the likely starter in Week 1, so bringing in Rodgers at this juncture could be sending the wrong message to the next franchise signal-caller. However, the Vikings do value QB depth and have said before they won't push McCarthy to start if he's not completely ready.

The Seattle Seahawks are interested in signing recently released veteran wide receiver Cooper Kupp, according to SeattleTimes.com. Kupp was let go by the Los Angeles Rams following eight seasons with the organization that included him racking up 634 receptions for 7,776 yards and 57 touchdowns in 104 career games. Kupp won the 2021 NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award after posting 145 catches for 1,947 yards and 16 scores. Seattle released longtime wideout Tyler Lockett and traded DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason, leaving the team with a weakness at the position behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Kupp is beyond his prime years of production, but he'd instantly slide into at least the No. 2 pass-catching role in Seattle's offense led by new quarterback Sam Darnold.

Free-agent quarterback Mason Rudolph agreed to a two-year, $8 million deal with $4.5 million guaranteed to return to the Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Rudolph considered multiple offers, including re-signing with the Tennessee Titans, but he ultimately chose to return to Pittsburgh after playing for them from 2019-23. The Steelers took the 29-year-old in the third round (76th overall) in 2018 out of Oklahoma State. Rudolph ended up taking over for the struggling Will Levis in Tennessee last year and went 146-for-228 for 1,530 yards, nine touchdowns and nine interceptions in eight games (five starts). He's pretty much been a game manager in his five years in the NFL, and he'll represent insurance for Pittsburgh with Justin Fields leaving for the Jets and Russell Wilson unsettled on where he'll land. The Steelers likely signed Rudolph with the intention of him being a backup again.

The Las Vegas Raiders are signing former Miami Dolphins Pro Bowl running back Raheem Mostert to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Mostert, a 10-year NFL veteran, had 1,012 rushing yards and a league-leading 21 total touchdowns in 2023 with the Dolphins and will be a big-time addition to Vegas' backfield in 2025. However, the 32-year-old fell back to Earth hard last year with only 85 carries, 278 yards and two rushing touchdowns in 13 games (one start) as the clear secondary option to De'Von Achane. With the move to Vegas, he'll Mostert will reunite with offensive coordinator Chip Kelly and will have a shot to bounce back as one of the team's primary backs as he competes for touches with Sincere McCormick and Zamir White. The aging back will most likely be involved in some sort of timeshare, but he could bounce back as a touchdown-dependent flex option if he can stay healthy.

Free-agent wide receiver Noah Brown (kidney) is re-signing with the Washington Commanders on Thursday on a one-year deal worth up to $4.5 million, sources tell ESPN's Adam Schefter. Brown, who caught the Hail Mary touchdown pass in the wild win over the Chicago Bears during the 2024 regular season, caught 35 of his 56 targets for 453 yards and one touchdown in 11 regular-season games (nine starts) in his first year in D.C. Unfortunately, the 29-year-old suffered a kidney laceration late in the year and finished the season on Injured Reserve. He should be all healed up for the start of the 2025 season this fall, though, and will give the Commanders additional receiving depth behind top wideouts Terry McLaurin and newcomer Deebo Samuel Sr. While Brown did have a bigger role on offense right before his injury, he'll have a limited fantasy ceiling as the No. 3 as long as both McLaurin and Samuel stay healthy.
