What happened: September 22 falls in the window between summer moves and training camp for the 2026-27 season. Unsigned free agents remain in search of deals while front offices weigh trades to settle camp rosters.

Why it matters: Late-September decisions shape camp depth charts and guaranteed-money commitments for opening night. Cap exceptions and minimum contracts signed now affect flexibility for in-season moves.

What to watch: Watch for camp rosters to lock in coming days with agreed deals moving toward official status.
