Reports: Titans release sacks leader Harold Landry III
March 7 - The Tennessee Titans released outside linebacker Harold Landry III after unsuccessfully shopping their top pass rusher in trade talks.
Landry, 28, was the Titans' longest-tenured player. Landry would have earned $17.5 million in base salary with a $24.05 million cap hit in 2025.
Tennessee will save $10.9 million in cap space, bypassing a June 1 designation available that would have increased the franchise's savings to $17.5 million.
A second-round pick in 2018, Landry started all 17 games last season and made 71 tackles with a team-high nine sacks as well as 15 tackles for loss, one safety, 15 quarterback hits and four forced fumbles.
He has 397 career tackles in 98 regular-season games (79 starts) with 50.5 sacks, 70 tackles for loss, 102 QB hits, two interceptions, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
Landry signed a five-year, $87 million deal in 2022 but tore his ACL in the preseason and missed the entire campaign.

Former NFL defensive back Adam 'Pacman' Jones is facing several charges in Kentucky, including assault of a police officer and public intoxication. WHIO TV 7 in Ohio reported that Jones was arrested on Friday night and booked into the Kenton County Jail early Saturday morning. Jones, 41, played 12 seasons in the NFL for four teams, including an eight-year run with the Cincinnati Bengals from 2010-17 that included All-Pro honors in 2014 and a Pro Bowl selection in 2015. This is not his first run-in with the law. Most recently, Jones was arrested at the Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Airport in 2023 on charges of alcohol intoxication, terroristic threats and disorderly conduct. The NFL suspended Jones for the entire 2007 season for numerous violations of the NFL's personal conduct policy. He also missed the 2009 season. Drafted in the first round (sixth overall) by Tennessee in 2005, Jones recorded 17 interceptions and 509 tackles in 146 games (104 starts) with the Titans (2005-06), Dallas Cowboys (2008), Bengals and Denver Broncos (2018).

Report: Grizzlies C Zach Edey to undergo ankle surgery
June 7 - Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey is expected to miss some time at the start of the 2025-26 season after undergoing surgery for a sprained ankle, ESPN reported Saturday. After a solid rookie season, Edey was injured in an offseason workout earlier this week. "After consulting with the Grizzlies and multiple specialists, we decided this is the best approach for Zach long-term as it gets him back to 100 percent with no limitations," Edey's agent Mark Bartelstein said, via ESPN. "He will make a full recovery and be back better than ever," The Grizzlies selected the 7-foot-4 center with the ninth overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft after a phenomenal college career at Purdue. He was named the Naismith College Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons, becoming the first player to accomplish the feat since Ralph Sampson (1982-83). As a rookie, Edey proved to be a pivotal presence for the playoff-bound Grizzlies, averaging 9.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks across only 21.5 minutes per game. He started 55 games. In the first round of the playoffs against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Edey was productive in Game 4, recording eight points, eight rebounds, and seven blocks. He was the first rookie ever to record those minimums in a playoff game while playing 33 minute or less. --Field Level Media
