What happened: The suggestion has Las Vegas prioritizing guard help over adding a wide receiver. Quenton Nelson, 30, is floated as a salary-shedding candidate during Indianapolis’ front-office reset. Klint Kubiak has pointed to a need for better production from the offensive line.

Why it matters: Interior improvement would aid both the run game and pass protection for Kirk Cousins and Fernando Mendoza. Better control up front would help Las Vegas manage the clock and keep the defense off the field at 3-3. The proposal frames Nelson as an immediate upgrade over current guard play.

What to watch: What follows is whether Indianapolis makes veterans available and what Las Vegas is willing to offer in draft capital.
