Giants | Malik Nabers noncommittal, but apparently on track for Week 1 Tue Sep 1, 02:25 PM
Wide receiver Malik Nabers is feeling "real good" less than two weeks before the New York Giants' season opener against the Dallas Cowboys but remains noncommittal about playing Week 1. "I feel pretty good. I feel real good to be honest," Nabers said. "Like I said, you're going to feel good but there's still some things that you're going to have to check off the box for you to participate. So I'm still going through that, still listening to the trainer, still listening to doctors and sharing everything with them."
| Footballguys view: Nabers is coming back from a torn ACL last year and has progressed to full practices throughout the summer. He recently shed the red no-contact jersey he wore throughout camp. Everything seemingly has been trending in a positive direction. While he's not quite prepared to declare himself ready to play the Cowboys, ESPN.com's Jordan Raanan reports the expectation is that he will be playing, barring some setback. The Giants and Nabers have seemingly been gearing up for the Sunday night opener against Dallas on Sept. 13 since the first day of training camp. |

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs, who was placed on the Commissioner's Exempt list, is expected to play at some point in 2026, according to general manager Brian Gutekunst.
| Footballguys view: Asked if there's a scenario in which the Packers release Jacobs, Gutekunst said, "I think we'll let the process play out before we make any kind of those decisions." The NFL has yet to issue a suspension for Jacobs, who can't practice or play while on the exempt list. Jacobs has an initial hearing on Nov. 17. It's hard to envision him playing before then. MarShawn Lloyd will handle the bulk of the workload in Jacobs' absence. |

New York Jets QB Cade Klubnik will be the backup quarterback to QB Geno Smith to start the season, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.
| Footballguys view: Klubnik, a fourth-round pick from Clemson, is the only backup on the 53-man roster. Geno Smith, 35, will start the season opener against the Tennessee Titans. Bailey Zappe, released Sunday, is expected to return to the practice squad. Ostensibly, Klubnik, Zappe, and Brady Cook competed for the No. 2 job, but it was clear from the outset that it was Klubnik's job to lose. The Jets believe Klubnik will benefit from being the No. 2 quarterback because of the extra practice reps. |
Arizona Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) is 50-50 to play in Week 1, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: As noted in a previous item, head coach Mike LaFleur told reporters that Love, who returned to practice on Monday, is making good progress in his recovery. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, in addition to suggesting Love is 50/50 for next week's opener against the Chargers, acknowledged that we're unlikely to get clarity until next week. The team's first injury report for its matchup against the Chargers will be released on Sept. 9. |

Arizona Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) is making good progress in his recovery and will take a step in his recovery Monday, Aug. 31, according to head coach Mike LaFleur.
| Footballguys view: Asked specifically if Love would be ready for Week 1, LaFleur would only say the rookie is "progressing." Love is dealing with what's reportedly a high-ankle sprain, suffered in their preseason win over the Raiders. He's been out of practices and doing individual work the last two weeks. But it's worth noting he traveled to Green Bay with the rest of the team last week. Fantasy managers should expect him to be questionable for the opener against the Chargers, but the first injury report of the season won't come out until Sept. 9. |

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles) will be eased back into practice over the next few days, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.
| Footballguys view: Kittle's return to team drills comes a day after ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Kittle was expected to practice this week. Schefter reported that Kittle hasn't had any setbacks in his recovery and that he has a legitimate chance to play against the Rams to open San Francisco's 2026 season. The 49ers will practice the next three days before traveling to Melbourne to resume preparations for the opener. Shanahan said it wasn't necessary to know if Kittle will play before leaving, but that it wouldn't be a bad thing. We'll be watching for more. |

Arizona Cardinals QB Carson Beck (rib) will participate in practice Monday, Aug. 31, according to head coach Mike LaFleur.
| Footballguys view: Beck, who suffered a rib injury in the team's first preseason game, has been sidelined since then -- but is trending in the right direction. Asked if Arizona would look to add another quarterback to the roster after keeping three on the active roster in Jacoby Brissett, Gardner Minshew, and Beck- LaFleur said Beck would be "full go." The coach added, "I mean, obviously we're not tackling or anything like that, but he'll be ready to roll." The Cardinals do not have a game this week, though Arizona will be practicing with the regular season just around the corner. |
