By Despite the attention paid to prominent players like Dalvin Cook and DeAndre Hopkins, many NFL players are still unsigned. There are still available quarterbacks like Carson Wentz, Teddy Bridgewater, and Matt Ryan, who is now employed by CBS but hasn’t ruled out participating. Additionally available are running backs like Ezekiel Elliott, Leonard Fournette, Kareem Hunt, J.D. McKissic, and Mark Ingram. Numerous wide receivers, such as Julio Jones, N’Keal Harry, Kenny Golladay, and Cameron Brate, as well as tight ends Marcedes Lewis and Kyle Rudolph, are still looking for contracts.
Taylor Lewan, Chase Roullier, Justin Pugh, and George Fant are some of the players who are available for the offensive line. A few pass rushers still seeking clubs are Yannick Ngakoue, Jadeveon Clowney, Robert Quinn, and Melvin Ingram. Akiem Hicks, Ndamukong Suh, Linval Joseph, and Tyson Alualu are among the interior defensive lineman who are still awaiting offers. Those still unsigned are linebackers Kwon Alexander, Myles Jack, Kyle Van Noy, and Anthony Barr.
Marcus Peters, Eli Apple, William Jackson, and safety John Johnson, Duron Harmon, and Logan Ryan are among the secondary players who have not yet signed with a team. Mason Crosby, Randy Bullock, Ryan Succop, Zane Gonzalez, and Brett Maher are notable kickers that are available, and Matt Araiza and Andy Lee are available to punt.
Before the start of training camp, some of these players could find contracts, while others might be signed later as teams evaluate their needs or deal with injuries. Others might not get any offers because of excessive demands or lack of interest, while some players might wait to see how the season plays out before making a choice. Since there are only so many roster places available in the NFL, athletes sometimes must wait for the ideal moment or allow the outcome of the game to determine their fate.
