Wednesday has been a very busy day for free agency around the NFL. From Tyrann Mathieu being cut by the Arizona Cardinals to Eric Ebron being cut by the Detroit Lions, let’s take a look at the moves that have been made so far today.

  • The Arizona Cardinals have cut safety Tryann Mathieu. The 25-year-old safety out of LSU combined for 78 tackles and two interceptions last season. [Should the Giants be interested?]
  • The Detroit Lions have decided to cut ties with Eric Ebron, who caught 53 passes for 574 yards and four touchdowns in 2017.
  • The Miami Dolphins have decided to cut Ndamukong Such in an attempt to change the culture in the locker room. Such combined for 48 tackles and racked up 4.5 sacks last season.
  • Cleveland Browns offensive tackle Joe Thomas announced his retirement after 11 NFL seasons. The 312 pound Wisconsin product made 10 Pro Bowls in his career.
  • The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed former Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman Beau Allen. The 6-foot-3-inch, 327 pound defensive tackle has only missed one game over the past five seasons.
  • The San Fransisco 49ers signed former Minnesota Vikings running back Jerick McKinnon to a four-year, $30 million deal. He ran for 750 yards on 150 carries and three touchdowns last season. McKinnon filled in nicely for rookie Dalvin Cook following his ACL surgery earlier in the season.
  • The Philadelphia Eagles have re-signed linebacker Nigel Bradham to a five-year, $40 million deal. Bradham had 88 combined tackles last season in Philadelphia.
  • The Cleveland Browns signed former San Fransisco 49ers running back Carlos Hyde to a three-year deal worth $15 million. Hyde, 27, led the 49ers in rushing last season, accumulating 938 yards on 240 carries and eight touchdowns.
