Best Remaining 2026 NFL Free Agents Available Entering June
The NFL free-agent pool hasn't dried up yet. Several veterans can still help contending teams and fill starting roles.
Most of the top free agents are weighing their options for the right fit. Others may be patient, hoping that suitors offer more lucrative deals.
Before several veterans choose their next career chapter for the 2026 season, here are the top 10 free agents available entering June.
These selections are primarily based on recent production and a player's position value. For example, a defender coming off a double-digit sack campaign garners more interest than a high-end slot cornerback on the open market.
WR Keenan Allen

Still one of the league's top possession slot receivers, Keenan Allen hasn't seen much drop-off in his production on the other side of 30.
In 2024, Allen led the Chicago Bears with seven touchdown receptions, serving as a reliable target for then-rookie quarterback Caleb Williams.
After one year in the Windy City, Allen returned to the Los Angeles Chargers and picked up where he left off with quarterback Justin Herbert. The well-seasoned wideout caught 81 passes for 777 yards and four touchdowns.
Allen has never played with blazing speed, but he knows how to get open and hauls in contested catches with his strong hands.
The 33-year-old receiver fits with teams in need of a big slot target or a physical No. 2 pass-catching threat.
OG Joel Bitonio

Guards are underappreciated in football. They don't score touchdowns or make as much money as starting offensive tackles. The big men on the interior do the dirty work in the ground game while running backs get all the glory.
That said, a top-tier guard is still a valuable cog within an offensive line, especially with an increasing number of interior pass-rushers in the league.
Joel Bitonio earned a Pro Bowl nod in seven consecutive years between 2018 and 2024. Although he didn't get that honor last year, the established veteran guard still had a quality season.
According to Pro Football Focus, Bitonio only committed one penalty and allowed just two sacks while on the field for 686 pass-blocking snaps.
If Bitonio doesn't retire, he could be a shoo-in starter for a playoff-contending team that has a significant need at left guard.
EDGE Jadeveon Clowney

By now, teams know what to expect out of Jadeveon Clowney. He'll rack up close to 10 sacks and strengthen the run defense.
Last season, Clowney led the Dallas Cowboys' Micah Parsons-less pass rush with 8.5 sacks. He finished third on the team in pressures with 22.
Because of Clowney's ability to disrupt run plays in the backfield, he's more than a designated pass-rusher. The 33-year-old has recorded at least nine tackles for loss in three consecutive seasons.
Over the last four years, Clowney has bounced around the league, playing for four different teams, though he can be one of the final pieces to a championship-level defense.
If Clowney avoids injury, he can play more than 50 percent of the snaps on even and odd-man fronts. The 12-year veteran may be the highest earner among available free agents.
OT Taylor Decker

Taylor Decker lined up at left tackle for a decade with the Detroit Lions. His tenure with the club ended after he refused to take a pay cut.
Decker contemplated retirement following the 2025 season. He's missed three games in back-to-back terms, which is a sign that the physical toll on his body is starting to wear him down.
However, Decker is still a high-end pass-blocking offensive tackle.
According to Pro Football Focus, he allowed just two sacks while on the field for 551 pass-blocking snaps last year.
If Decker is all-in on suiting up for another campaign, he'll likely slide into a starting role for a club during training camp.
WR Stefon Diggs

Stefon Diggs' career peaked during his four-year Pro Bowl run with the Buffalo Bills, but he bounced back from a torn ACL suffered in October of 2024.
The New England Patriots took a risk, signing Diggs to a three-year deal as he rehabbed his knee injury, and it paid off last season. He led the team across multiple pass-catching categories, eclipsing 1,000 receiving yards for the seventh time in eight years.
Still, New England released him before free agency.
Diggs isn't going to stack a defender and beat him over the top, but he averaged nearly 12 yards per reception with an 83.3 percent catch rate last year.
Diggs can line up on the outside or in the slot as a reliable target for a young signal-caller, as he did for Drake Maye in 2025. He's a solid complement to a big-play or smaller receiver who's hesitant to attack the middle of the field.
EDGE Cameron Jordan
6 of 10.jpg)
Don't look at Cameron Jordan's age as a reason to overlook him. The 36-year-old is beyond his perennial Pro Bowl seasons, but he registered 10.5 sacks and 22 pressures in the previous campaign.
Furthermore, Jordan is an iron man on the edge. The 15-year veteran has yet to miss more than one game in a single campaign. He played in every contest between 2023 and 2025.
The New Orleans Saints allowed Jordan's contract to expire and acquired Tyree Wilson from the Las Vegas Raiders during this year's draft.
Wilson, who has 12 sacks and 39 pressures in 50 career games, isn't going to fill a void in the Saints' pass rush alone.
At his charitable pickleball tournament, Jordan left the door open for a return to New Orleans.
"There's nobody (the Saints acquired) who produced the way I did last year, so," Jordan said via Matthew Paras of The Times-Picayune. "My talent speaks for itself. And if things work out, phenomenal. I've always said I understand the business side to it, so I've never worried about it."
ESPN's Nate Taylor reported that the Kansas City Chiefs are a "possible destination" for Jordan. The first-time free agent should have a robust market.
EDGE Von Miller
7 of 10.jpg)
At 37, Von Miller is a designated pass-rusher who can give a team 300-400 quality snaps off the edge in a season.
In 2025, Miller took the field for 420 snaps, 37 percent of the defensive snaps, with the Washington Commanders. He logged a team-leading nine sacks, 19 pressures and six tackles for loss.
The Commanders needed to infuse their roster with younger talent on the defensive side of the ball. So, despite Miller's efficient production as a pass-rusher, he's unlikely to re-sign with them.
Miller would like to return to where his career started, in Denver.
"Obviously, I wouldn't start. Obviously, I wouldn't play special teams," Miller said via Parker Gabriel of the Denver Post. "But I will say, the type of room that we would have, the outside linebackers with me, Nik Bonitto, we'd be a force."
In a rotation with Nik Bonitto, Jonathon Cooper and Jonah Elliss, the 14-year veteran could be a closer within a dominant pass-rushing unit.
WR Deebo Samuel

Teams aren't going to find star receivers on the open market entering June, but general managers can add versatile playmakers.
Deebo Samuel once called his position a "wide back" because of his involvement in the San Francisco 49ers' ground game in addition to his receiving responsibilities.
Even with a lesser workload, Samuel can still be a dynamic addition at receiver and contribute to the rushing attack.
In 2025, with the Washington Commanders, Samuel logged 17 carries for 75 yards and a touchdown, along with 72 receptions for 727 yards and five scores.
Samuel led the Commanders' pass-catching group in multiple receiving categories as a go-to target while wideout Terry McLaurin battled injuries.
At 30, Samuel could provide a spark with his sure hands and ability to rack up yards after contact and in space.
OLB Kyle Van Noy
9 of 10.jpg)
Kyle Van Noy is a defensive Swiss Army Knife who's aged well into his mid-30s.
In 2024, Van Noy earned his first Pro Bowl nod, recording 41 tackles (14 for loss), 12.5 sacks, and 25 pressures. He led the Baltimore Ravens pass rush and made his presence felt within the league's No. 1 run defense while playing just 59 percent of the snaps that year.
Last season, Van Noy saw a drop-off in playing time, only lining up for 50 percent of the defensive snaps.
However, the 12-year veteran still made an impact on all three downs, logging 20 tackles (four for loss), two sacks, 17 pressures, four pass breakups and an interception.
At 35, Van Noy can still fill holes across the front seven as a skilled, high football IQ chess piece.
LB Bobby Wagner
10 of 10.jpg)
Like Von Miller, Bobby Wagner had a highly productive 2025 campaign with the Washington Commanders, but the team's much-needed shift to a younger defensive unit likely means he'll sign elsewhere.
Wagner is still an elite-level three-down linebacker. He finished the previous season with 162 tackles (eight for loss), 4.5 sacks, four pass breakups and two interceptions while allowing an 89.5 passer rating in coverage.
Most linebackers in their prime years aren't logging numbers close to Wagner's in his age-35 term.
Any club in need of a defensive leader who can get teammates lined up in the right spots, make open-field tackles and cover in space should be in talks with Wagner right now.
