R. Gronkowski - TE

Gronkowski brought in six of seven targets for 87 yards in the Patriots' 13-3 win over the Rams in Super Bowl LIII on Sunday.

For the second straight game, Gronkowski made a statement that implies he may not be quite as ready for pasture as some suggested throughout this past regular season. The former All-Pro was the Patriots' second-most productive pass catcher behind Julian Edelman, and it was his clutch 29-yard grab down to the Rams' two-yard line with 7:36 remaining that ultimately tilted a defensive slugfest in New England's favor. Sony Michel pounded into the end zone a play later to snap a 3-3 tie, giving the Pats a lead they wouldn't relinquish. Coupled with his strong effort (6-79) in the AFC Championship Game win over the Chiefs, Gronkowski's performance Sunday indicates he still can serve as a downfield threat that's a load to bring down if managed prudently. However, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports the veteran has already said he'll take several weeks this offseason before making a decision on his future, meaning it will likely be awhile before Gronk's 2019 outlook can be determined.

B. Wreh-Wilson - DB

ATL

Wreh-Wilson agreed to a one-year contract extension with the Falcons on Friday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

Wreh-Wilson was set to become a free agent upon the dawn of the new league year March 13, but the Falcons elected to bring him back on a "prove it deal." Having spent three years in both Tennessee and Atlanta since being drafted as a third-round pick out of Connecticut in 2013, Wreh-Wilson has struggled to develop into a reliable cover man at the professional level, though he has proven to be a competent special teams contributor. The 29-year-old will compete for a role on kickoff and punt coverage, while providing depth for a secondary that's otherwise undergone considerable turnover in the early offseason.

C. Parkey - K

CHI

The Bears will let Parkey go when the 2019 league year begins, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Parkey will make $3.5 million guaranteed on his 2019 contract despite his release, all that follows his miss in the playoffs that cost the Bears a chance at the NFC Championship Game. He should find plenty of suitors for his services in 2019.

N/A

D. Johnson - DB

The Chiefs signed Johnson on Friday, Brooke Pryor of The Kansas City Star reports.

Johnson had a whirlwind of a season. He began the 2018 campaign as a starter on the Seahawks, but he suffered a hip injury and was eventually released with an injury settlement. He then spent time with the Bills, Browns and Cardinals before being dropped after Week 15. The Chiefs secondary definitely could use some reinforcements, so Johnson stands a solid chance of making the roster if he can stay healthy.

N/A

D. Grayson - WR

The Chiefs signed Grayson on Friday, Brooke Pryor of The Kansas City Star reports.

The Chiefs waived Grayson with an undisclosed injury in May of 2018, but he'll get another shot with the team. Grayson has tons of competition ahead of him including 11 other receivers, so he'll likely need to make an impact on special teams to secure a roster spot.

N/A

E. Manuel - QB

The Chiefs signed Manuel to a contract Friday, Brooke Pryor of The Kansas City Star reports.

While Manuel has plenty of NFL experience on his resume, not much of it is good. With the Chiefs already rostering Patrick Mahomes and Chad Henne, the 28-year-old signal-caller will likely battle with Chase Litton to earn a spot as a third quarterback on the 53-man roster, but the odds may be stacked against him.

N/A

S. Coates - WR

The Chiefs signed Sammie Coates on Friday, Brooke Pryor of The Kansas City Star reports.

Coates has found a new home after being released by the Texans in mid-December. While he has some NFL experience under his belt, the Chiefs have plenty of talent in the wide receiver group, so he will have his work cut out for him to latch on to the 53-man roster.

N/A

R. Lovato - LS

PHI

Lovato signed a one-year contract with the Eagles on Friday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

The long-snapper joined the Eagles in 2016 after starter Jon Dernbos suffered a broken wrist, but wound up winning the job outright which eventually led to Dernbos being traded to begin the 2017 season. The one-year contract is expected to be near the veteran minimum.

T. Alualu - DL

PIT

Alualu re-signed with the Steelers on a two-year deal, according to Teresa Varley of the team's official site.

It's fair to suggest that Alualu didn't have a solid 2018 season, setting career lows in tackles (22) and sacks (0) in 15 games. The likes of Stephon Tuitt, Javon Hargrave and Cameron Heyward along the defensive line have essentially turned Alualu into a rotational depth piece, albeit one with a first-round pedigree and history of positive production. Alualu, who will turn 32 years old in May, will likely continue to reprise that role in the coming campaign.

Added Yesterday 4:12 pm (EST)

N/A

J. Elliott - K

PHI

Elliott is staying with the Eagles on a one-year contract for 2019, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Elliott was scheduled to become an exclusive rights free agent, essentially locking him in for another year in Philadelphia even before Friday's agreement. The 24-year-old kicker has converted 83.9 percent of field-goal attempts and 93.5 percent of PATs through two seasons, including 19 of 21 from 40-49 yards and seven of 11 from 50-plus. Given his attachment to an above-average offense, Elliott makes sense as a low-end kicker option with some upside in the final round of 2019 fantasy drafts.

J. James - TE

PIT

Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert suggested James may be re-signed this offseason, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.

James may want to survey the league after he played second fiddle to Vance McDonald in 2018, but it's hard to imagine many teams would view the 24-year-old as much more than a high-end No. 2 tight end. The 2015 fifth-round pick did add an element of occasional explosiveness to his game last season, piling up a career-best 423 yards despite seeing his fewest targets (39) since his rookie season. James produced 14.1 yards per catch to improve his career mark to a measly 9.9, but he didn't actually have much of an impact in the passing game after his 5-138-1 receiving line against Kansas City in Week 2. Given the poor alternatives at his position in the upcoming class of free agents, James could cash in with a surprisingly large contract if he finds one or two teams that view him as a starter. McDonald is under contract in Pittsburgh through 2021.

N/A

A. Brown - WR

PIT

General manager Kevin Colbert said three teams have contacted the Steelers to discuss the possibility of trading for Brown, Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

His comments may be accurate, but it's also clear Colbert is trying to help the team maintain leverage in an awkward situation. He acknowledged Wednesday that all parties agree a trade would be best, but then went out of his way to make it known the Steelers are willing to keep Brown if the offers disappoint. It shouldn't ultimately make much difference, with Brown's talent and production likely outweighing his difficult personality in the eyes of at least two or three teams. Once they have a few suitors lined up, the Steelers can assess offers and figure out what makes sense. They presumably hope to trade the 30-year-old wideout to the NFC, or at least to an AFC team that doesn't look strong on paper. A number of teams meet that criteria, with the 49ers, Raiders, Cardinals, Packers and Jets standing out in terms of positional need and cap flexibility.

T. Taylor - WR

Taylor is excited for a healthy offseason and has already started his training program, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. "I think that's just such an advantage," Taylor said, "to be able to only think about building your body up with no limitations going on. I think whenever you have to worry about an injury throughout the offseason there's so much you have to hold back from."

Taylor dealt with shoulder and back injuries last offseason, coming off a 2017 rookie campaign in which he caught 43 passes for 430 yards and two touchdowns. He took a big step back in 2018 with a 26-215-1 receiving line, averaging just 22.9 snaps in 14 games while sometimes losing work to fellow slot receiver Richie James. The two players figure to battle for playing time in 2019, with new assistant coach Wes Welker brought in to help the development process. Veteran wide receiver Pierre Garcon won't be retained, but Marquise Goodwin (Achilles), Dante Pettis and Kendrick Bourne are all under team control for at least two more years.
