NFL | Terrion Arnold attracting interest Thu Jul 2, 11:08 AM
Free-agent CB Terrion Arnold (Lions) has been contacted by three teams, according to his attorney, and is expected to sign within 30 days.
Link to storyLas Vegas Raiders CB Jermod McCoy (knee) was a limited participant during offseason workouts, but the team said McCoy has not suffered any setbacks and it was their plan for McCoy.
Link to storyLos Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua is eligible for a contract extension, but after trading for CB Trent McDuffie and DE Myles Garrett, the team doesn't seem to be in a hurry for any contract extensions, in the opinion of ESPN's Sarah Barshop on Tuesday, June 30.
| Footballguys view: The Rams have a strong group of extension-eligible candidates from their 2023 draft class, and Nacua is at the top of that list. It remains to be seen whether the Rams get ahead of those contract extensions or focus instead on the 2026 season. The latter appears to be the way they are leaning. A deal could certainly get done -- one that makes Nacua the top-paid player at his position -- but Nacua's situation is further complicated by recent off-field issues. Of course, none of this changes Nacua's status as a consensus top-five fantasy pick. |

New England Patriots CB Christian Gonzalez could 'hold-in' if a contract extension isn't reached before veterans are scheduled to report to training camp, in the opinion of ESPN's Mike Reiss on Tuesday, June 30.
| Footballguys view: When Gonzalez met with reporters after the first day of mandatory minicamp on June 9, he was asked whether he would play this season without a new contract. The initial part of his answer was: "We got a long time to the season." The sides are expected to continue discussing an extension, with the next checkpoint coming July 24, when most veterans are scheduled to report for training camp. Gonzalez would face fines for not reporting, which would all but ensure a hold-in. |

Free agent CB Terrion Arnold (Lions) has been released from Hillsborough County jail after posting $1 million bond on Tuesday, June 30.
Link to storyDetroit Lions CB Terrion Arnold was released Monday, June 29.
| Footballguys view: Arnold, who faces four counts each of kidnapping and assault that could bring a life sentence, had his bond set at $1 million Monday. The state asked the judge to require Arnold to wear a GPS tracking device, but his attorneys argued that he would not be able to play football with such a device. That won't be an immediate issue. The Lions selected Arnold in the first round of the 2924 draft. His release leaves a major hole at the cornerback spot for the Lions, as he was scheduled to start on the outside opposite D.J. Reed. |
Kansas City Chiefs CB Mansoor Delane (shoulder) did not participate in the mandatory minicamp because of his shoulder injury, according to ESPN.com's Nate Taylor.
| Footballguys view: Despite missing the minicamp, ESPN.com's Nate Taylor reports that Delane was quite effective during voluntary practices. When training camp begins, Delane is projected to be a starter who will get plenty of one-on-one instruction from longtime coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. "We all felt like he was the top corner in this class," Spagnuolo said. |

| Footballguys view: The league will let the legal process move forward with these serious charges. Arnold released a statement through his PR rep saying he "categorically denies any involvement in the matter." We could soon see Arnold on the Commissioner's NFL Exempt List. |

Free-agent CB L'Jarius Sneed (Titans) agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Kansas City Chiefs Monday, June 8, worth as much as $5 million.
| Footballguys view: Sneed was a 2020 fourth-round pick by the Chiefs, and he helped them win a pair of Super Bowls in his four years in Kansas City. He was traded to the Titans before the 2024 season, but he only played 12 games over two years with the team due to injuries, and he was released in March. The Chiefs invested a 2026 first-round pick in CB Mansoor Delane, but still had a need at the position after parting ways with Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson. |

Miami Dolphins CB Jason Marshall Jr. will be moving back outside, after moving to nickelback in his rookie season out of necessity due to numerous injuries in the secondary.

He is expected to compete for a starting job, with DBs Julius Brents and Storm Duck in the mix, as well as Christopher Johnson, Darrell Baker Jr. and Marco Wilson in the mix.
