2025 NFL Free Agency, Live Updates: AFC South
5 min read
Former Indianapolis Colts lost four-time Pro Bowl center Ryan Kelly to the Minnesota Vikings.
The AFC South’s free agency/offseason period started with the Titans letting go of general manager Ran Carthon. It did not take long for the team to find a replacement in Mike Borgonzi, who was a Super Bowl-winning assistant general manager for the Kansas City Chiefs. Now the question is what the team will do with its number one overall pick in the draft.
The Jaguars have a decent amount of money in free agency and they have started to free up additional capital. How will new general manager James Gladstone attack the process? Gladstone served as the Rams’ Director of Scouting Strategy the last three seasons. He is joined at the hip in the AFC South with new head coach Liam Coen, who he previously worked with in Los Angeles. The Texans have decisions to make regarding an offensive line that was leaky for much of the season. The Colts have already parted ways with at least one expensive contract. Do they have hopes of retaining key free agents or will they look outside of the building?
Please come back day-to-day as we provide live updates on each of your favorite teams in the AFC South.
