Russell Wilson will give a full effort in 2015 regardless of his contract status with the Seattle Seahawks.

"Ultimately, it comes down to the play. I let my play speak for itself and let the rest take care of itself. I continue to love the game for what it is and continue to fight and continue to play no matter how much I'm getting paid, no matter if it's $25 million or if it's $1.5 million. I'll be ready to go."

Wilson is scheduled to make $1.54 million this season in the fourth and final year of his rookie contract, a $2.99 million deal he signed as a third-round draft choice in 2012.

He is believed to be seeking a multiyear deal that could make him the highest-paid player the game, a five-year contract worth more than $110 million, with at least $50 million fully guaranteed.

Michael Bennett is unhappy with his current contract with the Seattle Seahawks and is openly considering holding out. Bennett said holding out is "definitely possible."

Bennett signed a four-year, $28.5 million contract ($16 million guaranteed) in 2014.

"I know a lot of people disagree because I don't put up all the numbers, but if you watch the games, I'm doing good things," he said. "They want me to play five positions but pay me for one."

The Seahawks also have prolonged contract talks with Russell Wilson.

Russell Wilson is not distracted by or worried about his contract situation with the Seattle Seahawks.

"It's not where my focus is," Wilson said, via Madison.com. "The rest will work out. The contract will work itself out. I'm excited about it and excited to hopefully be a Seattle Seahawk for a really, really long time. So, that's the goal."

It has become increasingly clear that a deal between the Seahawks and Wilson will not get done quickly or easily.

Dez Bryant and the Dallas Cowboys have resumed talks on a new contract.

On Friday, the Cowboys had their first face-to-face meeting with Bryant's agents Tom Condon and Roc Nation's Kim Miale in nearly four months.

Bryant has threatened to sit out the season opener, while executive vice president Stephen Jones acknowledged two weeks ago there is "just too big of a divide" in contract demands.

Condon recently accused the Cowboys of taking a "year-by-year" approach in regards to Bryant's status within the franchise.

The Denver Broncos were never prepared to cut Peyton Manning, but they did ask him to take a $10 million pay cut. The Broncos eventually were able to get Manning to agree upon a $4 million cut in pay.

Manning struggled down the stretch last season and the Broncos have been able to improve their roster around him this offseason.

According to Benjamin Allbright of 94.1 FM in Denver, the Denver Broncos tried to trade Peyton Manning to the Houston Texans during the offseason. He cites “two unrelated official sources” for the report, adding that “certain elements” of the Broncos organization wanted the Brock Osweiler era to start in 2015.

Manning's revised contract for 2015 includes a no-trade clause.

Manning struggled during the final part of the 2014 season.

Russell Wilson continues to speak publicly about his contract situation with the Seattle Seahawks.

Wilson referenced his time at NC State before transferring to Wisconsin to finish his collegiate career.

"At the end of the day I trust the process," Wilson said. "I know God's going to take me and put me where he wants to have me. I hope that's Seattle. I love it there, it's a great place. But I've gone through the ups and downs and been moved around before. I loved NC State and loved playing there and then having to go somewhere else and start new."

Wilson is seeking a deal in excess of $110 million.

The Cleveland Browns have claimed Terrelle Pryor off waivers.

Pryor is ready to switch from quarterback to wide receiver.

Pryor was recently released by the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Cincinnati Bengals are highly impressed by the development of A.J. McCarron.

Cincinnati's coaching staff believes McCarron is "fully capable of becoming a starting-quality player," according to NFL Media's Albert Breer.

Although McCarron is no threat to Andy Dalton's QB1 job this summer, his development could lead to a shorter leash should the starter continue to struggle in primetime and playoff games.

Dalton's six-year, $96 million contract is essentially a year-to-year proposal. 

Matt Cassel could be in danger of not making the Buffalo Bills' roster for the 2015 season.

The team can save $4.15 million by releasing the 10-year veteran before the start of the season.

Cassel was acquired from the Minnesota Vikings this offseason.
