This may be the quietest first day of free agency for any sport, ever

Nkemdiche was with the Panthers last year but didn’t make it out of camp. What happened there?

I'm interested in seeing who Houston adds to the QB Room. Ace from United Football Media speculates that due to Lionel Vital's NFL ties, it will be a QB who wasn't offered a futures contract or a QB who has been a free agent all season.

I mean, most if not all UFL GMs/DPPs have ties to the NFL and have worked there previously. I’m not sure what about Vital’s NFL ties make it more likely they’d sign a QB that spurned a futures deal.

I don't think Zach Potter has any ties to the NFL (as I heard on one of the UFL Shows that he's only 22).

That’s why I qualified it with “most.” But I think my overall point still stands.

Edit.

James Morgan and Ja'Chai Baker will not be signing with any UFL teams:
