The NFL’s offseason calendar began on February 13, with the start of the 2023 waiver wire system and the first business day after Super Bowl LVII. Teams can next designate their franchise or transition players starting on February 21 and ending at 4 p.m. ET on March 7. During this period of time, the NFL Scouting Combine (Feb. 28-March 6) will also occur at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
A week later, starting on March 13, NFL teams can begin negotiations with the league’s pending unrestricted free agents. That’s where things will start to get exciting for fantasy footballers, as we’ll begin to get a clear picture of who might land where for 2023 and beyond. The new league year will then start on March 15 at 4 p.m. ET, during which time clubs must exercise options for 2023 on players with clauses in their contracts. At that point, free agents can sign with new teams.
