Linebacker K.J. Britt and Anthony Walker are trading places.

ESPN reported Thursday that the Buccaneers have agreed to a one-year deal with Walker, formerly of the Dolphins. And Britt, selected by Tampa Bay in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft, now is heading to Miami on a one-year contract of his own.

Walker, a fifth-round draft pick by the Colts in 2017, is joining his fourth team; he also played for the Cleveland Browns. In one season with Miami in 2024, he played in 14 games (eight starts) and had 68 tackles, a sack, an interception and two pass break-ups.

Britt played in 59 games (15 starts) over four seasons with the Bucs, with his best season coming in 2024. He started 11 games and made a career-high 72 tackles.

–The Eagles are adding linebacker Josh Uche on a one-year contract. Philadelphia lost Josh Sweat in free agency.

Uche, a second-round draft pick in 2020 by the New England Patriots, has played in 64 career games (four starts). Six of those games came last season in Kansas City, who traded for him in October.

He has 86 career tackles (19 for loss) and 20.5 sacks with two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery.

–The Tennessee Titans signed four-time All-Pro punter Johnny Hekker.

He spent 10 seasons with the Los Angeles Rams, followed by three with the Carolina Panthers. He was a member of the NFL’s All-Decade Team for the 2010s.

Last season in Carolina, he averaged 45.7 yards on 73 punts with a 41.5-yard net average.

In 212 career games, he has punted 963 times for 45,052 yards — the NFL’s active leader in both categories — and a 42.8-yard net.
