In the spirit of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, our friends at NFL Total Access will unveil an NFL free-agency bracket of their own on Monday’s show.

As speculation continues about Brett Favre’s decision to return for a 20th NFL season or retire, Newsday believes the quarterback has given a hint to his intentions.

In the main section of Sunday’s Kansas City Star, the Jets took out a full-page ad to say thanks for Thomas Jones’ contributions to the team.

The addition of LaDainian Tomlinson to the Jets backfield shouldn’t have a major impact on the value of Shonn Greene.

The New York Jets reached an agreement with free-agent RB LaDainian Tomlinson Sunday on a two-year contract, according to a league source.

It looked like LaDainian Tomlinson may have made up his mind on a destination earlier Sunday, but the wait continues. Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune spoke with the veteran, who said he hasn’t officially decided on where he will sign as a free agent.

While LaDainian Tomlinson is scheduled to meet with Vikings officials again Thursday, he also has a second free-agent visit set up. That team, according to NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora, is the Jets.

LaDainian Tomlinson dominated the NFL consciousness Wednesday, and as we learned from NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora, the running back already is in Minnesota meeting with Vikings coaches and executives, according to a league source.

For the first time, the Vikings have publicly discussed LaDainian Tomlinson’s reported visit to Minnesota on Thursday.

The Vikings have a genuine interest in former Chargers RB LaDainian Tomlinson according to a report in the Star Tribune. The Vikings are looking for a reliable backup to RB Adrian Peterson after losing former understudy Chester Taylor to Chicago at the beginning of free agency.

The Chargers backfield will have a new look in 2010, and it could wind up holding one of next season’s top fantasy sleepers.

The Eagles officially released Brian Westbrook, who joins a crowded field of veteran free agent running backs.

Texans general manager Rick Smith didn’t sound against signing RB LaDainian Tomlinson on Friday. In fact, the team is “entertaining the idea,” he said.

The San Diego Chargers could be in the market for two running backs after notifying Darren Sproles on Friday they will allow him to become an unrestricted free agent.

The Super Bowl champion Saints could be creating a vacancy for LaDainian Tomlinson by apparently allowing running back Mike Bell to become a free agent. Bell was not one of the 13 restricted free agents they tendered on Thursday.
