Tampa Bay Buccaneers LB Kendell Beckwith (ankle) was activated from the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list in February, but he is not a lock to make the 53-man roster in 2020.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers LB Jack Cichy (elbow) is expected to be play primarily on special teams in 2020 after missing most of last season with an elbow injury.

Indianapolis Colts FS Malik Hooker is expected to be one of the starting safeties this upcoming season.

New England Patriots QB Cam Newton officially signed his contract with the Patriots Wednesday, July 8. Official terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys View: Newton gets his fresh start with the Patriots and will now compete for the starting job. His primary competition will be second-year quarterback Jarrett Stidham. If Newton is healthy after spending most of 2019 on Injured Reserve, then the former MVP should have no trouble winning the top spot.

San Francisco 49ers RB Raheem Mostert has requested a trade, according to his agent.

Tennessee Titans RB Derrick Henry is not close to a long-term contract extension at this point. Henry’s representatives have been talking with the Titans this offseason about a new deal.

Footballguys View: Henry and the team have until July 15th to work out a long-term deal. He’s signed his franchise tender and is set to play in 2020 on a one-year, $10.278 million franchise tag. They’ll work diligently to get a new contract worked out by next week’s deadline.

Free-agent PK Stephen Gostkowski (Patriots) could be an option for the Tennessee Titans, according to general manager Jon Robinson.

Free-agent DE Jadeveon Clowney (Seahawks) has received interest from the Tennessee Titans this offseason, but general manager Jon Robinson said he would like to meet with Clowney and have the team doctors examine him before working on a contract.

Philadelphia Eagles sixth-round draft choice WR Quez Watkins signed a four-year contract with the Eagles Wednesday, July 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Tennessee Titans third-round pick RB Darrynton Evans is expected to fill RB Dion Lewis’ role on third down.

Footballguys View: Evans played running back and even a little slot receiver earlier in his college career at Appalachian State. He was the starter over the last two seasons and displayed a decisive running style with little wasted motion. He catches the ball cleanly and can even be used as a return man if need be.
