An NFL exclusive rights free agent is one who has accrued less than three seasons in the league but has a contract that expired.

The team that an exclusive rights free agent was playing for can offer a one-year deal with league minimum money. Exclusive rights free agents can’t negotiate with any other franchise unless a deal isn’t offered. Then that player becomes an unrestricted free agent.
