The Facts: Amendola, who is coming off one of the best seasons of his 11-year career, is re-signing with the Detroit Lions, his agent said Saturday. Agent Erik Burkhardt congratulated Amendola on social media Saturday for the "well-earned deal," which is for one season, according to a Fox Sports report. Reported by ESPN.com

Diehards Line: The signing means the Lions' top three receivers -- Kenny Golladay, Marvin Jones Jr. and Amendola -- are all in contract years in 2020. The 34-year-old Amendola had 62 catches for 678 yards and a touchdown in his first season with the Lions in 2019 -- the second-highest yardage total of his career. The veteran slot receiver has appeared in 141 games, starting 71 of them. He's caught 547 passes for 5,362 yards and 21 touchdowns between the Patriots, Rams, Dolphins and Lions. Also a kick and punt returner throughout his career, he has 1,821 punt return yards and 3,575 kick return yards. He's returned one at least one punt in every season of his career.

The Facts: Beckham, who underwent core muscle surgery Jan. 21 by Dr. Bill Meyers in Philadelphia, will be healthy in about a month, a league source told the Plain Dealer. Reported by the Cleveland Plain Dealer

Diehards Line: Beckham posted video of himself on his Instagram story Thursday running on a treadmill, a welcome sight for the Browns. Still, it's worth noting that Baker Mayfield’s two star receivers in Jarvis Landry (who underwent a procedure on his hip Feb. 4) and Beckham -- who both eclipsed 1,000 yards in 2019 -- have undergone surgery this offseason to repair ailments that prevented them from practicing much last season. Time missed in the offseason isn't ideal, but it's certainly better than during the season. Remember, new OC Alex Van Pelt has called upon Landry and Beckham to lead what he expects to be an explosive offense.

The Facts: Doctson, a former first-round draft pick, will get a chance on his third NFL team. The Jets announced today that they signed Doctson, a wide receiver who most recently played for the Vikings. Reported by Profootballtalk.com

Diehards Line: The 22nd overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft, Doctson started his career in Washington, where he managed just two catches in two games as a rookie. He started to show a little promise in his second and third seasons, topping 500 receiving yards both years, but he was released before the 2019 season. Last year Doctson signed with the Vikings but was cut after playing in just one game. With the Jets Doctson will have a tough time making the team, but he’ll have a full offseason to try to prove that he really does have first-round talent.

The Facts: GM Bob Quinn is continuing to insist he will not trade Matthew Stafford. Despite persistent talk that a Stafford trade is possible, Quinn told Tori Petry of the Lions’ website that it’s not happening. “He’s our quarterback. All those rumors, I’m not sure exactly where they came from, but they were, like I said before, 100 percent false,” Quinn said. Reported by Profootballtalk.com

Diehards Line: Again, trading Stafford wouldn’t save the Lions any money against the salary cap, and if they did trade him they’d have to draft or sign another quarterback to replace him, which would cost more cap space. And Quinn and Lions coach Matt Patricia are on notice from ownership that the team is expected to improve this year, which make it an odd time to start over with a rookie quarterback. So, as PFT's Michael David Smith suggests, a Stafford trade wouldn’t make a lot of sense, and Quinn is adamant that it will not happen.

The Facts: Jeffery's last two seasons have ended in pain, but he doesn't want out of Philadelphia. At least that's what Jeffery's agent said with a tweet Friday: "[Jeffery] loves being in the city of Philly and playing for the @Eagles!!!!" Reported by NFL.com

Diehards Line: The tweet came as a response to a piece from The Athletic's Connor Hughes, which mulled receiving options for the Jets in the event Robby Anderson leaves via free agency and listed Jeffery as a candidate. Sandwiched between a bunch of helpful information was one key line: "The Eagles are looking to move Jeffery, league sources confirmed to The Athletic. And Jeffery would welcome the change of scenery." As NFL.com's Nick Shook suggests, even if Jeffery's agent makes it clear the receiver likes being in Philadelphia, the Eagles have plenty of reason to consider moving on from Jeffery starting with the Lisfranc injury that ended his 2019 season early, an injury that's proven to be problematic for other players and puts the receiver on track to return to the field in September -- the start of the season. Jeffery is also 30 years old and accounts for a hefty chunk of Philadelphia's cap space: $15.6 million. Moving on wouldn't be so easy, though. Jeffery's dead cap number is astronomical at $26.1 million, meaning it's going to take some financial gymnastics to make a deal work. ... Still, it's a situation worth watching in coming days.

The Facts: While some teams are making salary-cap friendly cuts, the Packers may wait a while. Asked about possibly moving from Graham, GM Brian Gutekunst said today: "After we get through free-agency meetings, after we get through draft meetings and then we get back from the combine, the picture starts to get a little clearer. And certainly with the CBA thing in flux, that'll help, too. So I'm going to be patient there and get to the other side of the combine before we start making any decisions." Reported by ESPN.com

Diehards Line: Graham is scheduled to count $11.67 million against the salary cap this fall in the final year of his three-year deal. The Packers would save $8 million against the cap by releasing him. Graham, 33, caught only 38 passes for 447 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games in 2019. PFT went on to remind readers the Packers drafted tight end Jace Sternberger in the third round in 2019, and he returned from injured reserve to play six games and both postseason games. Sternberger caught three passes for 15 yards and a touchdown in the playoffs.

The Facts: The Jaguars have chosen to pick up Conley’s 2020 option. Reported by Jaguars.com

Diehards Line: As the Redzone.org notes, the 27-year-old Conley set new career-highs in catches (47) and yards (775) in 2019, averaging a robust 16.5 yards-per-catch average and scoring five touchdowns, after being brought in as an unrestricted free agent from Kansas City. He has elite speed and offers big-play potential for an otherwise pedestrian Jags offense and probably will be a popular late-round flier in fantasy drafts -- especially best-ball drafts -- as the season draws near.

The Facts: According Review-Journal staffer Vinny Bonsignore, Williams is making good progress on the plantar fasciitis issues he had with his feet last year. Reported by the Las Vegas Review-Journal

Diehards Line: Williams signed a four-year, $44 million deal with the Raiders in the offseason hoping for more opportunities. But as Profootballtalk.com reminded readers, hip and feet injuries limited him in 2019. His numbers last season were almost exactly the same as 2018 with the Chargers. Williams made 42 catches for 651 yards and six touchdowns. As Bonsignore healthy Williams could make a big difference in the Raiders offense next season.

The Facts: Impending free agent Agholor is being linked to the Colts this offseason, according to Stephen Holder of The Athletic. Reported by the Redzone.org

Diehards Line: According to the Redzone.org, the pairing makes a lot of sense. The Eagles do not seem interested in retaining the 26-year-old Agholor and signing with the Colts would reunite him with his former offensive coordinator Frank Reich and his former receiving coach Mike Groh. Both men coached Agholor during the team's Super Bowl run in 2017. Agholor, originally the No.20-overall pick in the 2015 draft out of USC, underwhelmed with three-year lows in catches (39) and receiving yards (363) over 11 games in 2019 but did previously flourish for career-bests as the team's primary slot wideout under Reich and Groh. The Colts likely view him as a reclamation project capable of pairing from the middle of the field with sophomore Parris Campbell.

The Facts: Bears are releasing Gabriel and CB Prince Amukamara, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. Reported by ESPN.com

Diehards Line: Gabriel, who missed seven games last season due to two concussions last season, had 96 receptions for 1,041 yards and six TDs in his two years with the Bears. The Bears releasing Gabriel creates an opening/need for a speed receiver to help stretch the field and open things up for the running game. It's something they'll likely address in free agency or the draft.
