NFL teams dropped over $1 billion in the first 90 minutes of the 2026 free agency period. The Raiders led the pack with 281 million spent, followed close by the Titans at 270 million. It was a wild start, with plenty of big names changing teams right away. Some moves stood out of smart plays. The Raiders grabbed center Tyler Lindarbaum on a 27 million per year deal.
