Patriots extend Tavai, Giants trade for Burns, while Titans eye Cousins and Bengals consider Higgins` future.

The New England Patriots have made a significant move by finalizing a three-year, $15 million contract extension with linebacker Jahlani Tavai. This decision strengthens their defensive lineup as they prepare for the upcoming season.

In a notable trade, the New York Giants acquired Brian Burns from the Carolina Panthers, a transaction that was highlighted in a recent episode of "Hard Knocks." This behind-the-scenes look provides fans with insight into the strategic decisions shaping the Giants` roster.

Braden Fiske, a defensive lineman for the Los Angeles Rams, is focused on carving out his identity in the post-Aaron Donald era. As he hones his skills alongside the legendary player, Fiske is gearing up for his rookie season with high expectations.

The Tennessee Titans are exploring a potential trade for Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins. With a no-trade clause in place, Cousins is set to be released by the Falcons by March 14, 2025, unless he receives a $10 million roster bonus for 2026.

Wide receiver Tee Higgins of the Cincinnati Bengals faces uncertainty as his contract nears its end, with a potential salary of $26.7 million if he remains with the team. Similarly, the New York Jets` Garrett Wilson and the Rams` Cooper Kupp are also under trade consideration due to various performance and injury issues.

Additionally, the Baltimore Ravens are set to hire Anthony Levine as an assistant special teams coach, while discussions continue regarding Lamar Jackson`s placement in Sportico`s list of the 100 highest-paid athletes.
