2025 NFL offseason: All 32 teams’ WR situations ahead of free agency, draft
With free agency around the corner and the 2025 NFL Draft coming up in April, Kevin Patra assesses the wide receiver situations of all 32 teams in the NFL. Teams are listed in alphabetical order along with the top wideouts under contract for 2025, as well as key players who are not under contract for next season. Those WRs are denoted as unrestricted free agents (UFA), restricted free agents (RFA) or exclusive rights free agents (ERFA); (void) indicates remaining years on a contract will be voided, enabling the player to become a free agent.
The biggest offseason need in Arizona is for the chemistry between Harrison and Kyler Murray to take a massive leap forward. It was teenage-dance awkward at times in 2024, with the duo so off the mark on some occasions that it’s somewhat of a surprise the rookie went for 885 yards and eight TDs on 62 catches. If that connection improves, the Cards will be in a far better place. Wilson was a solid contributor, and I assume Dortch will be brought back as a restricted free agent. Add in tight end Trey McBride, and it’s not barren in the desert, but I’d want to add another playmaker on the outside — particularly someone who can take the top off and open the intermediate routes up for Harrison.
The Falcons only sent defensive personnel to the NFL Scouting Combine, which underscores what the club will prioritize this offseason. The offense is in a better spot as Michael Penix Jr. takes over under center. London set career highs with 100 catches, 1,271 yards and nine TDs in 2024. Two of his three 100-yard games came with Penix at quarterback. If they can pick up where they left off, London could be in for an even bigger breakout season in Year 4. Mooney flashed field-stretching playmaking worthy of his signing last season. And McCloud was surprisingly productive (686 yards on 62 catches) for a journeyman who’d never passed the 300-yard mark in the previous six seasons. Like almost every team, the Falcons would benefit from adding another weapon, particularly when it comes to supporting their younger QB. But ATL has more significant questions on defense to deal with.
The Bills locked down Shakir with a four-year extension in February, highlighting his importance to Josh Allen. Buffalo spread the ball around in 2024; though no player earned more than Shakir’s 821 receiving yards, nine posted at least 250. The midseason trade for Cooper didn’t work out as hoped, with the former Pro Bowler earning just 297
yards in eight games. The Bills must get more production out of Coleman (he finished his rookie year with 556 yards, 29 catches and four TDs) in 2025. Bringing back Hollins, who led the club with five touchdown catches, would be a start, but this crew could use another outside wideout, particularly one with the speed to stretch the field.
