Here are today’s midweek minor transactions from across the NFL:
Denver Broncos
- Signed: CB Mario Goodrich
- Waived: S Tanner McCalister
Kansas City Chiefs
- Signed ERFA tender: P Matt Araiza
New Orleans Saints
- Signed: TE Seth Green, T Barry Wesley
For the second year in a row, Denver is signing a player from the UFL. Last year, Dondrea Tillman contributed five sacks to the Broncos defense a couple months after finishing play with the Birmingham Stallions. Now the team dips back into Birmingham for Goodrich, who resorted to the UFL after spending the 2024 season away from the NFL. The Saints also dipped into the UFL today, taking Green off of the Arlington Renegades and Wesley off the Stallions.
After finally debuting in the NFL last year, despite getting drafted in 2022, Araiza was selected as a Pro Bowl alternate and played in the Super Bowl. Kansas City essentially assured that he would be around in 2025 when they tender him as an exclusive rights free agent, but with Araiza’s signature today, the transaction in complete.
