NFL Offseason Drama Begins: Franchise Tag Window Opens, What to Expect Next!

The buzz around the Super Bowl continues as the 2024 offseason kicks off with a major development in just one day.

Teams across the league open the two-week window for applying the franchise tag, a crucial tool in retaining key players and shaping the free agency market.

While some argue that the closing of the tag window is what matters most, the opening sets the stage for what's to come next week at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, where early talks and interest will pave the way for the upcoming legal tampering period.

By applying the franchise tag early in the week, teams can preempt any potential tampering discussions and secure their top talents from hitting the open market.

Expect to see one or two tags applied by the week's end, effectively putting a halt to any speculation about players testing free agency.

Keep an eye on the evolving offseason landscape as teams make strategic moves to solidify their rosters for the upcoming season.
