Chargers center Bradley Bozeman announced his retirement after eight NFL seasons and 110 starts. The Patriots have released running back Antonio Gibson after two seasons with the team.
Cap Management & Cuts
The Chiefs have released veteran defensive end Mike Danna as they work to get under the salary cap before the new league year. This move continues Kansas City's efforts to manage their cap situation with two weeks remaining until the deadline.

The Falcons are planning to place the franchise tag on tight end Kyle Pitts Sr., according to sources. Meanwhile, the Cowboys are "leaning" toward using the tag on Pro Bowl wide receiver George Pickens, though they're aware of potential fallout from this decision.
League Rules & Officiating
The NFL competition committee is discussing whether to allow replay officials to throw flags for non-football acts, a significant potential change to how games are officiated. This proposal would give replay officials more authority during games.

The Cowboys' VP of player personnel Will Mc Clay discussed the team's plans for the upcoming draft and free agency period. Additionally, there's speculation about a potential reunion between Tyreek Hill and the Chiefs, which could make sense given Hill's age and relationship with Patrick Mahomes.
