Players such as Russell Wilson, Devante Adams, Amari Cooper, Khalil Mack, Baker Mayfield, Allen Robinson, Von Miller and Matt Ryan all have new homes.

This all took place while Tom Brady chose to come back to the Bucs, Aaron Rodgers returns to the Packers and Deshaun Watson chose the Browns, but now seems there will be an imminent suspension.

New blood will dominate much of the conversation in 2022, with high-profile players such as Aiden Hutchinson, Kayvon Thibedeaux, Evan Neal, Jordan Davis, Garrett Wilson and Sauce Gardner, among others, are sure to make an immediate impact.

The Rams are the team everyone is gunning for this season after winning the Super Bowl in their first year with Matt Stafford at the helm of a high-flying offense.
