None of the players benefiting from franchises or transition tags for this offseason have signed long-term extensions with their current teams and it does not seem that anyone should expect a deluge of them before the deadline. Wednesday afternoon.

The last few days have indicated that the deadline should pass without overtime for Washington goalkeeper Brandon Scherff, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, Chargers tight end Hunter Henry or Giants defensive lineman Leonard Williams. The titans who take over Derrick Henry are also on this list.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Henry and the Titans should not find common ground on a multi-year deal before the deadline. Titans general manager Jon Robinson hinted that things could happen this way when he recently spoke about the effect of current uncertainty on the salary cap on long-term planning.

Henry is expected to earn $ 10.27 million under the terms of the tag, which he signed in April. It would be online for an unrestricted free agency or another tag after the 2020 season if the deadline passes without agreement.
