Does the Type A tag ever come off them? Once the season starts? At a certain point of the season? Next year? Ever?
Currently the Type A tag never comes off of them. This has been fixed in the upcoming patch however, but for now they will remain a type a player until a team signs them, even if it is 3 years later.

Perhaps one work around that your league can allow at least temporarily is sign & trade deals where two teams work out a deal that the original team re-signs their free agent and then ships them to the other team for a player both teams agree upon giving up. This is more of a NBA type thing, but the only real workable solution I can think of in this scenerio.

Otherwise the player will likely stay a Free agent until they retire.
