Free agency is starting to wind down as draft season is heating up, but there are still plenty of notable players on the market who can help a squad out.
One of the best remaining names on the wide receiver market is Tyler Boyd, who spent eight years in Cincinnati and is hitting the market at 29 years old looking for a new home for the first time.
According to Mark Kaboly of The Athletic, Boyd is receiving interest from an array of teams, including the Miami Dolphins, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, San Francisco 49ers, and Detroit Lions.

Kaboly also added in a previous tweet that talks between Boyd and the Pittsburgh Steelers fell apart.
All five teams mentioned by Kaboly would make a lot of sense for Boyd, as the Dolphins and Lions are desperately in need of a reliable third wide receiver, while the Chargers and Chiefs both have wide receiver rooms in complete disarray and could use all the help they can get.
The 49ers aren’t quite as obvious as a potential fit, with Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, and Jauan Jennings still in town.
Boyd is used to being a third option, having played with Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins for years now and would slot in very well alongside Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle in Miami or Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams in Detroit.
Boyd has only missed 11 games in his eight years and it will be interesting to see where he winds up continuing his career and if he can shine brighter stepping out of Chase and Higgins’ shadows.
