The NFL offseason is in full swing, with teams focusing on vital salary cap and contract decisions following the Philadelphia Eagles' victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. Key dates are approaching that will impact team rosters and financial structures, including the waiver system and the start of the free agency period. Players like Spencer Brown and Dawson Knox are among those whose contracts are under scrutiny as teams navigate restructuring and potential cuts.

Feb. 10 marked the first day of the waiver system for the 2025 season, allowing teams to claim contracts of players with less than four years of service. Crucial contract guarantees will activate on Feb. 14, affecting Seahawks and Eagles players. As the league year progresses, teams must decide which players to retain or release, setting the stage for free agency negotiations starting on March 10.
