Tyler Lockett

The Patriots still need a lot of help at wide receiver. Would signing Tyler Lockett make sense?

Gallup, who turned 29 this month, recently met with the Commanders as the former third-round pick eyes a return to the NFL. Gallup opted for retirement ahead of the 2024 season, but after a year away from the game, he hopes to join a team and compete for a spot on a 53-man roster. He hasn't looked like himself ever since he suffered a torn ACL during the 2021 season, totaling just 832 yards and six receptions on 73 receptions from 2022 to 2023, but Gallup could provide solid depth on the right team. With Tyler Lockett now a free agent and D.K. Metcalf with the Steelers, it's fair to wonder if the Seahawks' depth chart is shallow enough for Gallup to earn a spot if given the chance.

Seahawks reshape their wide receiver room Homecoming: Former #Rams WR Cooper Kupp is signing with the NFC West rival #Seahawks, sources tell The Insiders. A Yakima native and Eastern Washington alum, Kupp now heads to Seattle, where he ll get to face his old team twice this season. (Tom Pelissero on X) FF Today's Take: Kupp (32) will be a big part of new look Seahawks team that will be missing Geno Smith, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. Kupp should find himself in the starting lineup opposite Jaxon Smith-Njigba with Sam Darnold at quarterback. Kupp hasn't played a full season since 2021 and finished as the WR25 last season in half PPR scoring with the bulk of his production coming prior to Week 12.

One of the top remaining storylines in free agency is the looming Cooper Kupp decision. The now-former Ram is expected to sign with a new team soon, and further details about his potential destination have emerged. The Seahawks have already been mentioned as a Kupp suitor, which comes as no surprise. Seattle cut Tyler Lockett shortly before trading away D.K. […]

31-year-old Kupp, of course, is from Washington and played his college ball at Eastern Washington. Seattle is also direly short on wideouts after cutting Tyler Lockett and trading DK Metcalf. It can likely only serve to help their case that they play Kupp's former Rams squad twice per season. Despite Kupp's many question marks -- injury and aging chief amongst them -- he should have a new home within 48 hours time.
