its still missing ott, chin, ertz and mariota and maybe one more
That looks like it only has players that have signed contracts, not the "agree to sign" announcements. I'm betting that site won't update until tomorrow afternoon.

I long ago read about how he conveniently decided to leave the team to have surgery….after he was told he wasn’t in their plans….
Marcus Mariota sets the record straight on leaving the Falcons late in the 2022 season after benching
Mariota detailed the situation in Netflix's "Quarterback" docuserieswww.cbssports.com

I assume Brian Johnson, who was with him in Philly last year, vouched for Mariota and what not. I do remember that incident though - bad look.
Not surprised. Even after they won this 2nd SB in the interviews right after he was already talking about a 3rd.

Have found 5 instances:
Y. Ngakoue, Jags -- traded to MIN
J. Clowney, Texans -- traded to SEA
F. Clark, SEA -- traded to KC
D. Ford, KC -- traded to SF
J. Landry, MIA -- traded to CLE
Seems Clowney and Ford were tagged specifically with the intent of trading them.
History of the "tag-and-trade" outcomes for franchise players and teams
Here’s how some recent tag-and-trade situations have worked out for teams
lionswire.usatoday.com
So, on its face, tagging doesn't preclude trading a guy. In Sneed's case, sounds like he wants a trade if his team and KC can't reach a deal. He's not the only guy they could use PM savings on, but it makes sense that they'll at least try.
Would love to see if they could make something happen with either of those guys.

I really, really don't like this aspect of the NFL.
Teams essentially colluding with players they signed to change the values on contracts they signed to free up cap space they were once fine spending is stupid. Restructuring is the NHL LTIR loophole only I hate it way more, because it doesn't "rely" on luck or happenstance, they just get to rearrange promises they were totally fine making not long ago.
This is because the NFL doesn't have guaranteed contracts compared to the the other three pro sports..

I know, I get that it's a different landscape overall, I just don't like how it is to follow as a fan. The amount of times we'd, as hard cap/guaranteed contract fans go "ooh, this team is buying into a window" and licking our chops is also an interesting part of the game.
Going "ooh, they're doing a- oh, never mind, the QB restructured his deal again and they're totally fine" over and over is not satisfying

Zero issue with restructuring in the NFL. Eventually the bill comes due….as long as the players are comfortable, no issue.
