This time of year tends to be a slow period for NFL news, but there have been a few developments that impact the snapping position and long snappers.

The Bills signed Reid Ferguson to a three-year contract extension that will keep him under contract until 2024.

Bengals snapper Dan Godsil appears to have retired after being placed on the Reserved/Retired list, leaving veteran Clark Harris as the only snapper on the roster.

Brian Schneider, who was to lead the special teams units for the Jaguars, stepped away for personal reasons. Schneider was replaced by Nick Sorensen

Finally, the USFL may be returning from a decades-long hiatus and could potentially offer long snappers a viable outdoor playing option. Caution is advised, however, as there have been many leagues that have come and gone over the years including:

UFL (2009-2012)

NFL Europe (1991-2007)

FXFL (2014-2016)

XFL (2001)

XFL 2.0 (2020)

Alliance of American Football (2019)
