NFL free agency begins with the legal negotiation window on March 10, and players are able to officially sign with new teams after 4 p.m. ET on March 12, which is the start of the new league year.
There will be plenty of action this week, though, in the lead-up to free agency. The franchise tag window will close on March 4 at 4 p.m. ET, and two players (Bengals receiver Tee Higgins and Chiefs guard Trey Smith) have already been tagged. Teams can also agree to terms on trades, as we saw with the Commanders' deal for receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. And of course, free agents can re-sign with their current teams and players on existing deals can be extended before free agency opens, too.
We're tracking all of the action, including signings, notable trades, cap-saving releases and more.
