Seahawks | Minor issue for Jadarian Price Sun Aug 9, 01:31 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price (legs) is dealing with general leg soreness but is expected to return in a few days, head coach Mike Macdonald said Saturday, Aug. 8.

Footballguys view: We will take the Seahawks at their word that it is general soreness unless this absence extends for weeks, not days. It is important for Price get as many practice reps as possible because unlike a typical first round running back, he was a backup (to #3 overall pick Jeremiyah Love) during his college career. George Holani would have a strong Week 1 outlook if this absence goes on longer than planned.

Chiefs | Rashee Rice limited Saturday Sun Aug 9, 01:31 PM

Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (knee) was limited to individual drills Saturday, Aug. 8, and left practice early to receive treatment on his right knee.

Footballguys view: This was planned according to team beat writers, so it shouldn't change our outlook for Rice. It is a reminder that like Patrick Mahomes, Rice might not be 100% to begin the season, or at least need to knock off some rust before performing up to previous levels.

Commanders | Laremy Tunsil to miss significant time Sun Aug 9, 01:31 PM

Updating a previous report, Washington Commanders OT Laremy Tunsil (triceps) suffered a torn triceps during practice Saturday, Aug. 8, and is expected to miss at least a significant portion of the regular season, according to sources.

Footballguys view: Tunsil is the best offensive lineman on the Commanders roster by a good margin. The team is installing a new offense, and now they will be adjusting to having a new left tackle. Swing tackle Andrew Wylie and backup left tackle/left guard Brandon Coleman will have a shot to start, but the team also signed three veteran offensive tackles, signaling an open mind to the places where they could find Tunsil's replacement. It is a lot more difficult today to see any Commanders overachieving in fantasy leagues than it was yesterday, and it wasn't easy yesterday.

Ravens | Ja'Kobi Lane endorsed by coach Sun Aug 9, 01:31 PM

Baltimore Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane has earned a role in the offense with his play in training camp, according to head coach Jesse Minter. 'There is consistency of making really contested, nice catches and being a really friendly target for the quarterback,' Minter said. 'He's certainly starting to see a vision of maybe what he can become in the offense.'

Footballguys view: The drumbeat is loud and consistent about Lane, who was already known for circus catches, but is now more dependable than expected in his rookie camp and ready to play a dedicated role in the Ravens pass offense from day one. Lamar Jackson rarely supports more than one fantasy relevant wide receiver, but we should put Lane on our waiver wire watch list in case he is on a fast track to being a productive pro.

Commanders | WAS signs three linemen Sun Aug 9, 01:31 PM

Free-agent OT Daniel Brunskill (Dolphins), OT Max Scharping (Steelers), and OT Nicholas Petit-Frere (49ers) were signed by the Washington Commanders, according to a source on Saturday, Aug. 8. The Commanders also released OG Tim McKay.

Footballguys view: This is what happens when you find out you are losing your stud left tackle for a good part of the regular season. The Commanders will try to get by with backup left tackle Brandon Coleman (who was competing for a starting job at left guard) or swing tackle Andrew Wylie in place of Laremy Tunsil, who went down with a torn tricep, but they are open this group of veterans providing competition and at least giving them another option on the practice squad if the replacements already on the roster don't work out.

Chargers | Tre Harris 'right there with top guys' Sun Aug 9, 01:31 PM

Los Angeles Chargers WR Tre Harris was mentioned as 'right there with Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston as our top guys', according to HC Jim Harbaugh on Saturday, Aug. 8.

Footballguys view: It's clear who the top three wide receivers will be for the Chargers, but the proportion of their roles compared to one another in the new Mike McDaniel offense is uncertain, and subject to change based on how everyone performs once the regular season is underway. Harris is going in the late rounds of drafts, well after Johnston or McConkey even though Harbaugh is including him with them in his assessment. We should have Harris on our late round target list.

Colts | Josh Downs might practice Tuesday Sun Aug 9, 01:28 PM

Steichen added that the injury is not considered serious.

Rams | Stetson Bennett's status for preseason opener uncertain Sun Aug 9, 10:05 AM

Los Angeles Rams QB Stetson Bennett could see playing time in the team's preseason opener versus the Kansas City Chiefs Saturday, Aug. 15, although head coach QB Sean McVay hasn't made a final decision yet.

Footballguys view: This is a sign that Bennett is ahead of first round pick Ty Simpson to back up Matthew Stafford. File this away in superflex leagues in case Stafford's back acts up during the season. Hopefully we won't see either quarterback play this season except in garbage time or in a meaningless Week 18 game.

Bears | Leg injury for Luther Burden Sat Aug 8, 03:06 PM

Chicago Bears WR Luther Burden III (leg) left practice early Saturday, Aug. 8, after suffering an apparent leg injury.

Footballguys view: Burden got tangled up with CB Tyrique Stevenson, who finished practice, but was reportedly fighting through some pain. Burden got to the weight room on his own power, but was reportedly walking "gingerly". We will hold our collective breath while we wait for an update. Kalif Raymond is experienced in Ben Johnson's offense from their time together in Detroit, and he would be the next man up while Burden is on the mend.
