Cardinals | Jacoby Brissett officially reports Mon Jun 8, 02:21 PM
Updating a previous report, Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett officially reported for the mandatory minicamp Monday, June 8.
| Footballguys view: Again, it's not clear how much on-field work Brissett will do after missing all the team's voluntary OTA sessions. Rookie Carson Beck and Gardner Minshew worked with the first team offense in Brissett's absence. We'll continue to monitor the situation, but it's widely believed the two sides will come to an agreement before the season starts. The question will be how much work Brissett does until then. |

Giants | Cam Skattebo on field Monday Mon Jun 8, 02:08 PM
New York Giants RB Cam Skattebo (ankle) is participating in practice Monday, June 8.
| Footballguys view: Skattebo, who said mid-May that he expects to be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season, is about eight months removed from the dislocated right ankle that limited him to eight games as a rookie. As CBSSports.com suggests, while it doesn't yet appear that the 2025 fourth-round pick has been cleared for full team drills, seeing him move fluidly on the field in individual work is encouraging. We'll continue to watch for more, but Skattebo being fully cleared for the start of training camp is within the range of outcomes here. |

Atlanta Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. (knee) may be cleared to participate in team drills before the end of offseason workouts, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. Penix has been able to take part in seven-on-seven drills as part of his recovery.
| Footballguys view: The Falcons will wrap up their offseason program with a mandatory minicamp next week. Penix is returning from last season's torn ACL. Stefanski also said that Penix has hit every milestone in his rehab schedule to this point in the offseason. Tua Tagovailoa is the other quarterback option for the Falcons. This is a situation we'll be monitoring through training camp. |

Eagles | James Proche trying out for Eagles Mon Jun 8, 11:52 AM
Free-agent WR James Proche (Titans) is participating in a tryout with the Philadelphia Eagles this week.
| Footballguys view: Proche spent three years in Baltimore before bouncing on and off the Browns' roster from 2023 to 2024. Proche played for the Titans last season. One factor potentially working in Proche's favor is that he has a track record of contributing on special teams. Part of the impetus for the tryout could be related to the Eagles currently being a little short-handed at receiver. Makai Lemon is reportedly expected to miss practices this week due to a hamstring injury. Britain Covey did not participate in the Eagles' media-attended OTA practice last week. The team also waived Brandon Hayes on Friday evening. |

Cardinals | Jacoby Brissett to arrive this week Mon Jun 8, 11:27 AM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett plans to report to minicamp this week despite a contract dispute.
| Footballguys view: Because it's a mandatory minicamp, Brissett was at risk of being fined a total of $107,911 if he didn't show up. He's missed all the team's voluntary OTA sessions up to this point. Brissett will report as the Cardinals' presumed starter, but it's uncertain how much on-field work he will do. Rookie Carson Beck and Gardner Minshew have taken more snaps in Brissett's absence. Brissett wants a restructured contract for this season. His deal currently pays him $4.88 million, with the potential to grow to $5.39 million, of which only $1.5 million is guaranteed. |

Patriots | A.J. Brown delivers big plays Mon Jun 8, 12:15 AM
New England Patriots WR A.J. Brown's 15 receptions of 50-plus yards since the start of the 2019 season are tied for the most in the NFL.
| Footballguys view: According to ESPN.com's Mike Reiss, the addition of Brown reflects how the Patriots have aggressively reshaped their receiving corps since losing to the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX, a process that began with the release of leading receiver Stefon Diggs in March. Diggs totaled 85 receptions for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns in his one season with the Patriots. As Reiss explained, the 6-1, 226-pound Brown is more of a perimeter target than Diggs, and Brown's history of making big plays adds to the positive vibe here. |

Jaguars | Bhayshul Tuten had made strides Mon Jun 8, 12:14 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten is running better during OTAs this season than he was last year, according to head coach Liam Coen.
| Footballguys view: According to SI.com's John Shipley, Tuten looked like he was picking up steam during OTAs. Coen also said Tuten looks like he is more in tune with the scheme now than as a rookie. With veteran Chris Rodriguez Jr. missing time with an unspecified issue, Tuten could use minicamp to solidify himself in the room further. However, it remains to be seen to what extent. We'll certainly be watching. Tuten is currently being drafted as RB25, a price that accounts for both the upside and the uncertain role. |
Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson focused on growth Mon Jun 8, 12:12 AM
New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson has focused on improving his blocking and receiving during the offseason program.
| Footballguys view: A more well-rounded skill set would give the second-year man a better chance of getting more playing time. Henderson played 43% of the offensive snaps last season, second most on the team behind Rhamondre Stevenson (52.9%), but he's being drafted well ahead of his teammate. Henderson is RB21 according to current ADP data. That spot carries a fourth-round price tag. Stevenson is RB29 with a late-sixth-round cost. The Footballguys projections have the two more tightly packed. Henderson is projected for an RB26 finish, while Stevenson's RB28 projection is closer to his ADP. This is a situation worth watching this summer. |
Buccaneers | Chris Godwin firing on all cylinders Mon Jun 8, 12:11 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin has been able to participate in the offseason program at full strength, according to head coach Todd Bowles. 'Obviously his knowledge of the game helps the younger guys but his route running is sharp, he looks smooth running his routes and he understands the offense very well,' Bowles said. 'We know the playmaker he's going to be for us.'
| Footballguys view: Godwin is needed now more than ever as the wide receiver room enters a new era without Mike Evans. A vintage Godwin performance as he works alongside Emeka Egbuka this season can really help get the Tampa Bay offense back to being a top-five unit like it was in 2024, which was the last time the Buccaneers had a winning season, made the playoffs and won the NFC South. Godwin is being drafted as WR40 in Round 7. |

Patriots | High hopes for Eli Raridon Mon Jun 8, 12:10 AM
New England Patriots TE Eli Raridon has 'growth potential' because of his size and speed, according to tight ends coach Thomas X. Brown. 'There's so much more to kind of be captured from his college tape,' Brown said.
| Footballguys view: The Patriots had significant plans for tight end Julian Hill after signing him to a three-year, $15 million deal in March, and coaches were gutted for him after he sustained a season-ending knee injury in practice. Hill's absence could create an expanded opportunity for Raridon, the team's third-round pick from Notre Dame. Raridon has a high athletic ceiling, and the Patriots don't have a receiving tight end of the future. Ideally, Raridon gets time to develop. But opportunity may knock sooner. |
Jaguars | CJ Williams making early impression Mon Jun 8, 12:06 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars WR CJ Williams has 'arguably been the top backup receiver' during the offseason program, according to John Shipley of SI.com, and Shipley believes Williams will earn a spot on the receiver depth chart.
| Footballguys view: Shipley added that after a few weeks of seeing him on the practice field, it is hard to imagine a scenario where Williams is not a part of the wide receiver depth chart in some fashion or another in 2026. Williams has arguably been the top backup receiver on the practice field so far this offseason program, and each backup quarterback has enjoyed throwing his way. There will be more competition in training camp, but so far, Williams has looked like he is ahead of each of them when it comes to practice field impact. |
Dolphins | Kevin Coleman Jr. worthy of starting spot? Mon Jun 8, 12:05 AM
Miami Dolphins WR Kevin Coleman Jr. has been the team's best rookie receiver and should be the starting slot receiver, in the opinion of Omar Kelly of The Miami Herald.
| Footballguys view: As Footballguy Sigmund Bloom suggested, Coleman projects as the most reliable wide receiver in a low-volume pass offense, which isn't worth chasing in rookie drafts. |
Broncos | Caleb Lohner to have cleanup procedure Sun Jun 7, 04:41 PM
Denver Broncos TE Caleb Lohner (lower body) is expected to miss the next two weeks of minicamp and organized team activities (OTAs) due to a routine lower-body cleanup procedure this offseason. He is expected to be ready in full for the start of training camp.

Philadelphia Eagles S Michael Carter II has been seeing work with the first-team defense in dime situations, but he is no splitting work with S Marcus Epps, who remains the top safety in nickel packages.

Eagles | Andy Dalton, Tanner McKee battle for QB2 job Sun Jun 7, 04:23 PM
Philadelphia Eagles QBs Andy Dalton and Tanner McKee are in a heated battle to serve as the primary backup to starter QB Jalen Hurts. The Eagles could try and trade McKee to a team in need of a quarterback this summer.
| Footballguys view: The #3 quarterback will presumably be fifth round pick Cole Payton. He has some Taysom Hill usage potential, but is also a long term project who could be an option down the line if Jalen Hurts doesn't click with new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion. Payton is an elite athlete and would generate a lot of fantasy value with his legs if he ever gets a shot. He also went to North Dakota State, like Eagles Super Bowl Champion Carson Wentz. |

Eagles | Jihaad Campbell still recovering Sun Jun 7, 04:19 PM
Philadelphia Eagles LB Jihaad Campbell (shoulder) is still recovering from offseason surgery to repair the left labrum in his shoulder. LB Jeremiah Trotter Jr. has been taking first-team snaps in offseason practices as a result.
Link to story Eagles | Dallas Goedert to remain big part of offense Sun Jun 7, 04:17 PM
Philadelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert will remain a big part of the offense, and his usage isn't expected to be impacted much despite the departure of WR A.J. Brown (Patriots).
| Footballguys view: The Eagles could use more two tight end sets if second round Eli Stowers - a converted quarterback who is almost as impressive athletically as Jets first round pick Kenyon Sadiq, but a more functional receiver with length at the catch point. In any scenario, Goedert will outproduce his ADP, the only question is how much. |
Dallas Goedert player page
Broncos | Courtland Sutton not worried about role Sun Jun 7, 04:14 PM
Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton said he is not worried about sharing targets with WR Jaylen Waddle. 'The targets will come,' Sutton said. 'I always say, the ball is going to find you no matter what, you just need to go out there and do your job.'
| Footballguys view: Sutton will be the top red zone target in any scenario, and it is clear that Bo Nix has the best chemistry with Sutton of any of the returning Broncos receivers. Sutton is right that targets will come, especially in key game situations, because he has been so good at doing his job with Denver. |

Chiefs | Jalen Royals taking advantage of reps Sun Jun 7, 04:14 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Jalen Royals has performed well in his additional reps with the first-team offense during OTAs, according to head coach Andy Reid. 'He looks strong out here and is running well. It's great for him and the quarterbacks to see what he is all about on repeated reps,' Reid said.
| Footballguys view: The 2025 fourth round pick was having a good first training camp but knee issues slowed him down at the beginning of the season. He has a similar skillset to Rashee Rice and the team could see him as a future replacement with Rice's unreliable off-field profile. Royals shouldn't be on the waiver wire in dynasty leagues and could become a consideration in redraft leagues if Rice has any problems getting back in action after spending time in jail following knee surgery in May. |
Eagles | Saquon Barkley to see uptick in receptions? Sun Jun 7, 04:07 PM
Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley could be in line for more working catching the ball out of the backfield, thanks to the departure of WR A.J. Brown (Patriots). He was targeted just 50 times in 2025, and 43 times in 2024. In his final two seasons with the New York Giants, he had 136 total targets. Offensive coordinator Sean Mannion could look to use Barkley more in pass-catching situations to offset the loss of Brown.

Jaguars | Josh Hines-Allen looks to build on success Sun Jun 7, 03:18 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars DE Josh Hines-Allen has collected at least eight sacks in each of the past two seasons, but he is looking to get back to his 2023 form which saw him record a franchise-record 17.5 sacks. He sees a jump in production possible in 2026 in his second season with defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile. 'I think the sky's the limit for myself this year,' Hines-Allen said. 'Year 2 [in a new defensive system] I feel like is always going to be the biggest jump.'

Broncos | Alex Palczewski not expected to start Sun Jun 7, 02:54 PM
Denver Broncos OT Alex Palczewski started 10 games at left guard in 2025 after OG Ben Powers (biceps) went on the reserve/injured list. However, Powers and the rest of the starting offensive linemen are back from last season, so Palczewski isn't in line now to start in 2026. However, he was regularly inserted for Denver's jumbo lineup when a sixth offensive lineman was used.
Link to story Dolphins | Jason Marshall Jr. moving back outside Sun Jun 7, 02:32 PM
Miami Dolphins CB Jason Marshall Jr. will be moving back outside, after moving to nickelback in his rookie season out of necessity due to numerous injuries in the secondary. 'Primarily he has and will be on the outside for us, and I think he's done a really good job,' coach Jeff Hafley said. However, Marshall has still taken some reps on the inside this offseason. He is expected to compete for a starting job, with DBs Julius Brents and Storm Duck in the mix, as well as Christopher Johnson, Darrell Baker Jr. and Marco Wilson in the mix.

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle disguises routes well Sun Jun 7, 01:43 PM
Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle is fitting in with his new team, and drawing praise from the coaching staff and teammates for his quick starting and stopping, and for his route running. 'I think his ability to make every route look the same is pretty important,' S Talanoa Hufanga said. 'As a defender, when you can make a 10-yard stop look like a go, a 10-yard dig (route) look like a go, a 10-yard out-route -- it's just, everything looks the same. And it puts pressure on your backpedal, as a DB.'
| Footballguys view: Waddle could be a focal point of the Broncos pass offense right away if he and Bo Nix are on the same page and the team is creative with their usage of their big offseason acquisition to push for a Super Bowl while Nix is on a rookie contract. Waddle could get off on the right foot in the season opener against Kansas City, which will likely be #6 pick Mansoor Delane's first NFL start. |

Steelers | Jalen Ramsey draws lofty comparisons Sun Jun 7, 01:24 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers CB Jalen Ramsey has been compared to Pro Football Hall of Famer Charles Woodson by secondary coach Joe Whitt Jr. and head coach Mike McCarthy. 'The way we used Charles Woodson in Green Bay,' said Whitt. 'He played the star. He played corner. He played safety. He played the money. He did all of those things. Charles could do it all in one game. He's one of the rare guys that can do it. Jalen has a similar skill set, similar size, similar speed. I'm just excited to see how we work with him and the way we use him.'

Lions | Jahmyr Gibbs will be leaned upon heavily Sun Jun 7, 01:10 PM
Detroit Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs will see a majority of the carries out of the backfield following the trade of RB David Montgomery to the Houston Texans during the offseason. 'He's going to be our bell cow now,' head coach Dan Campbell said. 'We're going to hang our hat on him quite a bit. We're going to do a lot of things we feel like he does well. I've mentioned this before, he can run everything that we've got. He can run every scheme that anybody's ever run.'
| Footballguys view: Gibbs is neck and neck with Bijan Robinson for #1 pick in fantasy drafts. Robinson also saw his running mate and sometimes touchdown vulture Tyler Allgeier leave in the offseason, but Gibbs is in the better offense and is trending towards being the most common 1.1 pick this year. |

Buccaneers | Cody Mauch's knee feeling fine Sun Jun 7, 11:40 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers OT Cody Mauch (knee) has completed the rehab process for his surgically-repaired knee and said that he is not experiencing any psychological or physical concerns. He is continuing to wear a knee brace for protection but claimed that its presence did not bother him while he worked out during recent OTAs. In addition, Mauch will be playing at a weight of 325 pounds this year, compared to a playing weight of 315-318 pounds for the 2025 season, but feels that it will not impact his mobility.
| Footballguys view: Mauch only played 138 snaps last year. He was one of four Bucs offensive linemen to miss significant time in 2025. With better injury luck, the offense should improve from the slump it entered after Baker Mayfield got banged up against the Lions in Week 7 last year. |
Panthers | Tershawn Wharton not close to returning Sun Jun 7, 11:07 AM

Patriots | Kayshon Boutte will attend mandatory minicamp Sun Jun 7, 10:58 AM
New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte will be in attendance for the first day of mandatory minicamp Tuesday, June 9, despite recent trade rumors. He had not been present for the Patriots' voluntary offseason program last month.
| Footballguys view: Boutte mostly played at the same outside X receiver spot that AJ Brown occupies. Hopefully the team moves Boutte around the formation (and Brown for that matter) to find a way to get the just turned 24 year old on the field in the last year of his rookie contract. Boutte could also be a midseason trade candidate if the Patriots just can't find snaps for him and want to recoup something before he leaves in free agency. |

Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy has performed well during offseason workouts and seems to be more comfortable entering his third season, according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: Worthy can fly down the field with blazing speed, but it takes more than that to make plays at the wide receiver position in the pros. Receivers usually take three years to get going in the NFL, so Worthy is certainly a player who could post better-than-expected numbers in 2026. Wide receivers coach Chad O'Shea said he has been impressed with how Worthy has been catching the ball during workouts. |
Falcons | Extension coming for Bijan Robinson? Sat Jun 6, 03:54 PM
Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson has been talking with the Falcons about a contract extension, according to sources.

Speculation abounds that Gibbs could get rewarded with a deal that pays him around $20 million annually. There is no doubt that Robinson will be in that same ballpark once his new deal is finalized. |

Colts | Tyler Warren looking to improve Sat Jun 6, 03:27 PM
Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren said he has been working on being more explosive out of routes this offseason. 'Getting in the break is one thing, but being able to accelerate out of it and still you create the space, but being able to hold that space if you are running across the field ... I think it's big,' Warren said.
| Footballguys view: Warren is a dangerous player with the ball in his hands. His development is one to be watched and admired as he could be the next great tight end in this league. Fantasy GMs are expecting Warren to produce as a top-5 tight end in 2026. |
Jaguars | Brian Thomas performing well Sat Jun 6, 02:42 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. has been making plays during the voluntary workouts and said he is feeling healthy after dealing with injuries in 2025.

Dolphins | Caleb Douglas may return next week Sat Jun 6, 01:35 PM
Updating a previous report, Miami Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas (undisclosed) suffered an injury during the mandatory minicamp, but head coach Jeff Hafley said Douglas will hopefully return to the field next week.
| Footballguys view: Douglas, a third-round pick out of Texas Tech, is a player we are intrigued by in dynasty formats. He's a big receiver (6-feet, 4-inches tall) who can blaze down the field with 4.39 speed. Douglas has inconsistent hands and needs to learn how to use his frame better to box out smaller defenders, but the physical tools are there for him to be a weapon in this league. He will need time to hone his skills, but we see some Marquez Valdes-Scantling in his game when fully developed. |

Nix did not participate in the team's first full week of organized team activities but had thrown in pre-practice sessions.
| Footballguys view: There have been some misconceptions, a dash of mystery, and sometimes straight-up misinformation about Nix's ankle this offseason. The current plan, according to Payton, is to have Nix do more in mandatory minicamp in 10 days or so. Does that mean full participation? While that seems unlikely, we're not too worried about the young franchise quarterback. Once August gets here and the Broncos are in training camp, we expect Nix to be near full strength and fully participating. |

Raiders | Malik Benson showing promise Sat Jun 6, 11:05 AM
Las Vegas Raiders WR Malik Benson has 'flashed his potential' during OTAs, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Benson can absolutely fly, as evidenced by five touchdowns last year for Oregon coming from 40-plus yards out, and he posted a 4.37 40-yard dash at the combine. Even though he's not a big receiver (listed at 189 pounds), Benson knows how to haul in contested catches, and he only had one drop last year for the Ducks. The sixth-round pick can immediately contribute on special teams as a return man while he learns the nuances of the pro game on offense. |
