Preference: The Packers preferred the extension to picking up Love’s fifth-year option, which would’ve paid him a guaranteed $20.3 million in 2024. 2025: If Love emerges as the Packers’ next great quarterback over the next two seasons, he’ll be positioned to sign a mega extension in 2025. Sample: The 24-year-old impressed in his only extended action last season, completing 6-of-9 passes for 113 yards, 1 touchdown, and no interceptions in a Week 12 matchup against the Eagles. - Across two seasons with the Packers, Love has only attempted 83 passes. Scheme Adjustments: The Packers are expected to make schematic adjustments that maximize Love’s athletic ability. Image: Scott Winters/Icon Sportswire Walker [Ken Walker] Ken Walker and rookie Zach Charbonnet to compete for top RB role Details: Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said that Walker will [battle]( the second-round rookie for playing time. - Carroll explained that Charbonnet’s receiving ability was a major selling point for the Seahawks. - This is notable, considering Walker’s struggles in that area as a rookie — he ranked tenth to last in yards per catch (6.1) among running backs (min. 25 receptions). Charbonnet Profile: Charbonnet (6-1, 214) totaled 1,680 scrimmage yards (1,359 rushing, 321 receiving) and scored 14 touchdowns with the UCLA Bruins in 2022. He caught 37 passes. Walker Review: As a rookie last season, Walker totaled 1,215 scrimmage yards (1,050 rushing, 165 receiving) and scored 9 touchdowns. He caught 27 passes. Image: John Cordes/Icon Sportswire Goff [Jared Goff] Lions discussing a contract extension for Jared Goff Details: During a radio interview on Tuesday, Lions GM Brad Holmes said the Lions have had "[dialogue](" with Goff’s agent about an extension. - Goff’s contract, which runs through 2024, has no guaranteed money after the 2023 season. 2022 Review: The 28-year-old completed 65.1% of his passes for 4,438 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions last season. He led the Lions to a solid 9-8 record. - Goff ranked seventh among all quarterbacks in passing yards, edging out higher-profile names like Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts, Aaron Rodgers, and Tua Tagovailoa. Template: Goff could ask for a deal in the range of Daniel Jones, who got a 4-year, $160 million extension ($92 million guaranteed) from the Giants this past March. Image: Steven King/Icon Sportswire Chiefs [Jerick McKinnon] Chiefs re-signed Jerick McKinnon, declined 2024 option for Clyde Edwards-Helaire Details: McKinnon will [return]( on a one-year contract. Financial terms have not been disclosed. 2022 Review: The 31-year-old was a major factor in the Chiefs’ pass game last season, ranking third on the team in catches (56), fourth in receiving yards (512), and second in receiving touchdowns (9). - He also totaled 291 yards and scored 1 touchdown on 72 rush attempts (4.0 ypc). CEH: Edwards-Helaire was a healthy inactive for the Super Bowl, after totaling just 453 scrimmage yards during the regular season. The team’s decision to decline his option did not come as a surprise. Pecking Order: Isaiah Pacheco and McKinnon figure to play the majority of running back snaps next season. Image: Adam Bow/Icon Sportswire Jets [Mekhi Becton] Jets declined 2024 option for OT Mekhi Becton Details: Becton is now scheduled to hit free agency [after]( the 2023 season. - The fifth-year option would’ve guaranteed him a salary of $13.5 million in 2024. Profile: Injuries have limited Becton (6-7, 342) to only one game since his impressive rookie season (74.4 PFF grade) in 2020. - He’s undergone two separate surgeries on his right knee. Role: The Jets expect Becton to compete for a starting tackle job in training camp — most likely with Max Mitchell (55.5 PFF grade) and Billy Turner (56.3 PFF grade) on the right side. He could end up playing a key role in protecting Aaron Rodgers from the likes of Von Miller, Jaelen Phillips, and Matthew Judon in the AFC East. Image: John Jones/Icon Sportswire Addison [Jordan Addison] Vikings drafted WR Jordan Addison to exploit single coverage Details: Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell [said]( that Addison will get “premier coverage looks” opposite Justin Jefferson — who is one of the league’s most double-teamed receivers. - O’Connell indicated that Addison will move around the formation based on how the opposition chooses to defend Jefferson. Profile: Addison (5-11, 173) caught 59 passes for 875 yards and 8 touchdowns with the USC Trojans last season. - The year before, as a member of the Pitt Panthers, he caught 100 passes for 1,593 yards and 17 touchdowns. Interesting: Dane Brugler [refers]( to Addison as a “twitched-up athlete with outstanding route-running quickness,” while Lance Zierlein [compares]( him to Tyler Lockett.
