Chiefs | Mansoor Delane sheds yellow jersey Mon Aug 17, 10:29 AM
Kansas City Chiefs CB Mansoor Delane (shoulder) is participating in practice for the first time without a non-contact jersey Monday, Aug. 17.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs have high expectations for the first-round rookie, but Delane has been slowed during training camp by a lingering shoulder blade injury he suffered late in OTAs. He was inactive for the preseason opener this past weekend. But now, the No. 6 overall pick appears to be trending in the right direction. |
Jets | Breece Hall injures groin Mon Aug 17, 10:25 AM
New York Jets RB Breece Hall (groin) suffered a groin strain Monday, Aug. 17, according to head coach Aaron Glenn. Hall will be evaluated, but Glenn didn't think it was a major deal.
| Footballguys view: Glenn added that Hall will undergo imaging tests to ensure the Jets have the right answers about his injury. "We will try to be precautionary with a lot of those," Allen said, "to make sure that we do the right things." Hall played in New York's first preseason game against Tampa Bay, registering four carries for 16 yards. One of the Jets' best offensive players, Hall rushed for 1,065 yards with four touchdowns and had 36 catches for 350 yards with one TD in 2205. A healthy Hall, going at RB14, could exceed expectations this year. |
49ers | Christian McCaffrey continues to miss practice Mon Aug 17, 01:05 AM
49ers running back Christian McCaffrey first missed practice on Monday, with his absence generally (and vaguely) attributed to "tightness." Nearly a week later, he's still not practicing. Via Cam Inman of the Bay Area News Group, McCaffrey wasn't practicing again on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: For now, the 49ers may simply be protecting McCaffrey from himself. In 2025, McCaffrey led the league with 413 regular-season touches in 17 games. At 30, McCaffrey is already pushing the age envelope for tailbacks. He has had 2,284 regular-season touches in nine NFL seasons. We'll continue to monitor this situation. As Profootballtalk.com suggested, at some point, it will be fair to wonder whether it's something more than proactive maintenance -- especially since a similar scenario played out in 2024, when Achilles issues ultimately cost McCaffrey 13 games. |

49ers | George Kittle feeling positive on rehab Mon Aug 17, 01:01 AM
San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles), on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, feels positive about his on-field rehab. 'I'm hitting numbers I need to hit. I'm pretty close,' Kittle said.
| Footballguys view: Kittle would miss at least the first four games if he isn't activated back to the active roster on Aug. 30. The veteran tight end tore his right Achilles in a Jan. 11 playoff game against the Eagles. He underwent surgery three days later. Kittle, who continues to target the season opener for his return, said the next two weeks will "let me know if I'm ready to play Week 1 or not." Kittle added that he will have to practice in pads before the season opener to play against the Rams. |

Commanders | Marcus Mariota to be ready for Week 1 Mon Aug 17, 12:51 AM
Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota (knee) is expected to be ready for the regular-season opener.
| Footballguys view: Mariota, in his third season with Washington, has been a valuable backup to Jayden Daniels. Mariota played in 11 games, including eight starts, last season, throwing for 1,695 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He replaced an injured Daniels in two games in 2024, leading victories in both games -- including a game-winning pass at Dallas in the regular-season finale with two seconds remaining. So having him back at full health to open the season will be important. |

Texans | Jaylin Noel suffers setback Mon Aug 17, 12:48 AM
Houston Texans WR Jaylin Noel (hamstring, finger) will miss a few weeks after suffering a setback, according to wide receivers coach Ben McDaniels.
| Footballguys view: Noel, sidelined by a minor finger issue, was activated from the NFI list and was working off to the side in wide receiver drills to get back on the field. But Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 reports that Noel is now dealing with a hamstring injury in addition to the finger injury. It's a tough break for the Texans' second-year wideout, who, while he's expected to see a big bump in opportunities in 2026, can't seem to get on the field in training camp. We'll follow up as developments warrant. |
Cowboys | Von Miller signing with Dallas Mon Aug 17, 12:45 AM
Free-agent LB Von Miller (Commanders) is expected to sign with the Dallas Cowboys, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Miller enters his 15th season with more sacks (138.5) than any other active player. He recorded nine sacks last season for the Commanders -- his highest total since 2021, when he finished with 9.5 while splitting time with the Broncos and Rams. In Dallas, Miller will be asked to be part of a pass-rush rotation that features Rashan Gary, Donovan Ezeiruaku, first-round pick Malachi Lawrence, and potentially Sam Williams, James Houston, and Marist Liufau. Miller might not be the every-down player he was with the Broncos, but the Cowboys believe he can be a difference-maker for new coordinator Christian Parker. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love nursing high ankle sprain, team 'hopeful' will be ready for Week 1 Sun Aug 16, 07:28 PM
Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports that the Cardinals plan on giving Jeremiyah Love the week off after he suffered an ankle injury in the preseason opener. Fowler added that the team is "hopeful" he'll be ready for Week 1. Some have speculated that he suffered a high ankle sprain, but head coach Mike LaFleur refused to give more specific information about the injury.
| Footballguys view: We weren't worried about Love's status for Week 1 until now. Adam Schefter has reported that the injury is a high ankle sprain. Love is still such a high upside play in the third round that it shouldn't discourage you from taking him, but Tyler Allgeier is becoming more interesting as a bench stash while we bide our time waiting for Love to return to the field. |
Bears | Kyle Monangai hurt in practice Sun Aug 16, 06:30 PM
Adam Hoge reports that Bears RB Kyle Monangai suffered "what appeared to be a right knee injury" when he was tackled from behind. The team wasn't wearing pads, and Grady Jarrett, who tackled Monangai, tried to hold him and apparently visibly felt bad about the injury. Monangai and a trainer tested the injury and walked off of the practice field together. Monangai was reportedly walking gingerly, but did not need the cart.
| Footballguys view: The Bears backs behind D'Andre Swift include Roschon Johnson, Brittain Brown, Salvon Ahmed, and Coleman Bennett. If this is serious, they could sign someone like Najee Harris. Early reports are that his knee is structurally sound and he is believed to be "fine" per Adam Schefter, but the team will have an MRI done to confirm. |

Chicago Bears RB Kyle Monangai (knee) suffered an apparent right knee injury in practice Sunday, Aug. 16, when he was tackled from behind by veteran DT Grady Jarrett. The team was not wearing pads, and Jarrett appeared to realize it mid-tackle, attempting to hold the back up. A trained tested Monangai's knee on the field, and he was helped off, but no cart was needed.

Dolphins | Jalen Reagor works as No. 3 receiver Sun Aug 16, 04:50 PM
Miami Dolphins WR Jalen Reagor worked as the No. 3 receiver in the preseason opener Friday, Aug. 14, against the Washington Commanders. He was working ahead of WRs Tutu Atwell, Jalen Tolbert, and others, seeing reps alongside WRs Caleb Douglas and Malik Washington. 'He had earned the right through practices to put himself in that situation,' head coach Jeff Hafley said. 'I like the way he strained. He's catching the ball well. Run after the catch has good. He's blocking well.'

Dolphins | Ollie Gordon II benched after penalty Sun Aug 16, 04:44 PM
Miami Dolphins RB Ollie Gordon II was pulled from the preseason game Friday, Aug. 14, against the Washington Commanders after taking an unsportsmanlike penalty. 'Had a talk with him immediately and pulled him out of the game, eventually let him go back in. As far as the conversation goes, I'll keep that between us. It was a great time to teach the team a lesson and Ollie a lesson.' head coach Jeff Hafley said. 'We had an opportunity to continue a drive; post-snap penalties like that are not acceptable to me. It's disrespectful to the team. It's selfish.'

Cleveland Browns QBs Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson will split first-team reps this week in a rotation. Head coach Todd Monken said Sunday, Aug. 16 that Sanders will work with the first team Monday and Wednesday, with Watson doing so Tuesday and Thursday. That will also allow both players to get first-team reps in joint practices with the Buffalo Bills ahead of the preseason game Saturday, Aug. 22.

Chiefs | Cyrus Allen targeted five times Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Cyrus Allen caught two of his team-high five targets for 20 yards in the preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: Allen has done nothing to slow down the momentum he has been building as a player who will be active and part of the offense immediately as a fifth round rookie. Given that neither Rashee Rice or Xavier Worthy is 100% right now and neither is known for durability, Allen should be a priority player on your late round target list. |
Chiefs | Emmett Johnson busy Saturday Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Kansas City Chiefs RB Emmett Johnson rushed 12 times for 59 yards and caught three passes for 10 yards during the preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: This was exactly the kind of performance Johnson needed to show the Chiefs that he is capable of being the primary backup to Ken Walker III as a rookie. With Walker's injury history, that role would make Johnson worth drafting in most redraft leagues. We'll be keeping tabs on this situation, but there's a trend starting towards Johnson in motion now. |
Rams | Ty Simpson dazzles in debut Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Ty Simpson completed 21 of his 25 passes for 190 yards and two touchdowns in the preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: There was nothing too challenging for Simpson in this game, but it was still great to see him throwing the ball accurately and on time in the context of this offense. If Simpson keeps this up, he could beat out Stetson Bennett to back up Matthew Stafford. |
Browns | Deshaun Watson solid in start Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson completed 11 of his 15 passes for 126 yards and rushed three times for four yards in the preseason game against the Chicago Bears Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: Watson's numbers look good, but he was the same shadow of the quarterback he used to be in reality. It's very difficult to predict who will win this competition, but not difficult to see that Watson is a backup quality quarterback at best at this point in his career. |

Ravens | Ja'Kobi Lane finds the end zone Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Baltimore Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane finished with three receptions on three targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in the preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: The hype train for Lane is not slowing down. He is firmly in the top three Ravens wide receivers, and could overtake Rashod Bateman in the target pecking order soon at this rate. Lane should be on your late round target list, with extra value in .5 and nonPPR leagues as a deep threat and playmaker. |
Bills | Josh Allen shines Saturday Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen completed six of his eight passes for 111 yards and a touchdown in the preseason game against the Carolina Panthers Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: If those numbers seem a bit aggressive for a preseason opener, you're not wrong. Allen came out and hooked up with new #1 receiver DJ Moore three times right away for 61 yards. Moore did get a little banged up, but Allen said that finding Moore early and often will be the plan every week (!), so don't let the injuries Moore and Keon Coleman (who caught Allen's touchdown on an extended play) dampen enthusiasm about this offense as a whole after it appears that it will be opened up under new head coach Joe Brady. |

Panthers | Jonathon Brooks logs four touches Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks rushed three times for five yards and caught a nine-yard pass during the preseason game against the Buffalo Bills Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: The most important outcome here is that Brooks didn't get hurt in his first live game action. Chuba Hubbard is already week-to-week with a hamstring injury, so Brooks could start Week 1 against the mediocre Bears runs defense. Brooks didn't pop any big gains or look like an impressive talent, but the line did him no favors. Nothing from this game should push him down from the new higher ADP he has after Hubbard got hurt in practice this week, but nothing from this game should push him higher either. |
Giants | Cam Skattebo back on the field Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
New York Giants RB Cam Skattebo rushed four times for 19 yards during the preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: Skattebo showed no ill effects from the dislocated ankle that he had surgically repaired last year. His "co-starter" Tyrone Tracy whiffed on a block and got his quarterback blown up, so we should probably start projecting Skattebo as the starter and worthy of his mid-fourth round ADP, if not higher. |
Giants | Jaxson Dart tosses TD Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
New York Giants QB Jaxson Dart completed three of his four passes for 26 yards and a touchdown during the preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: Dart's touchdown came on a very impressive throw once he was flushed from the pocket. It was caught by third round pick Malachi Fields, who is having a great summer and could win a starting job. Dart also went to the medical tent to be checked for a concussion (after Tyrone Tracy Jr. whiffed on a pass block), and expressed confusion after the game as to why he ends up in the medical tent so often. Jameis Winston is the backup here, and we have to imagine that we will se him get some starts this season. That's actually not bad for the fantasy prospects of the offense. Winston shouldn't be on the waiver wire in dynasty superflex leagues. |
Browns | KC Concepcion runs for TD Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Cleveland Browns WR KC Concepcion caught three of his four targets for 27 yards and added a 14-yard rushing touchdown during the preseason game against the Chicago Bears Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: Concepcion looked like he is going to play a significant role in this offense, given his talent for adding yards after the catch on safe, high percentage short throws. This was the domain of Harold Fannin Jr. last year, so the rise of Concepcion might not bode well for Fannin's ceiling even though he should be even better in his second season. Concepcion remains worth a pick in the second half of your draft as a speculative bench stash, especially in PPR leagues, but if he and fellow rookie Denzel Boston are hits, Fannin probably won't live up to expectations. |
Seahawks | Two key offensive players did not suit up Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (coach's decision) and RB Jadarian Price (upper leg) did not play in Saturday's preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: Price's leg issue isn't serious, but the team said he would be only be out a matter of days more than a week ago. George Holani started and got extensive work in the first half, and he should be on your late round target watch list until we see Price return to practice. |

Bears | Xavier Woods sidelined on Saturday Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Chicago Bears S Xavier Woods (groin) suffered a groin injury during Chicago's preseason game on Saturday, Aug. 15, and didn't finish the game, according to Bears HC Ben Johnson.
| Footballguys view: That brings the count of injured Bears safeties to four, and their nickel back hasn't practiced yet this summer and no one knows when he will return to action. The Panthers get to face this secondary in Week 1. The Bears defense is going to have trouble stopping the run at a minimum, and might get the team into a lot of shootouts, but also get stuck on the field by long opposing drives more than Ben Johnson would like. |

Bills | Two Buffalo receivers banged up on Saturday Sun Aug 16, 04:26 PM
Buffalo Bills WRs DJ Moore (ankle) and Keon Coleman (lower body) were both tended to on the sideline, according to a source on Saturday, Aug. 15. Trainers attended to Moore's ankle area after the second drive, but he stood on sidelines for the rest of the game. Coleman was tackled on third offensive drive after his last catch favored the lower body.
| Footballguys view: The injury mechanism for Moore looked like it could have been a high ankle sprain, but head coach Joe Brady said that Moore was "good to go" after the game. We'll wait to see his practice participation this week before closing the book on this injury scare. Coleman's injury is more mysterious, and maybe a bigger concern. Brady said he was okay after the game, but Coleman was wearing a walking boot while walking his dog in an instagram post made after the game. Coleman scored the first touchdown in the Bills new stadium and appeared to be gaining some momentum before the injury. |

Bears | Ozzy Trapilo activated from PUP Sun Aug 16, 04:16 PM
Chicago Bears OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list Sunday, Aug. 16, and he was back on the practice field. There was fear he would miss the entire season when he went down with a knee injury in January.
| Footballguys view: This is a massive win for the Bears, who are now on track to get their left tackle back early in the season, if not for Week 1. If you felt bullish about the Bears already, here's a reason to be even more confident in their offense's ability to create multiple overachievers for fantasy football this season. |
Browns | Several expected to return soon Sun Aug 16, 03:48 PM

Philadelphia Eagles LB Jihaad Campbell played in the preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday, Aug. 15, and he was the only starter to participate.

'I'll let the coaches decide (the backup job winner),' McKee said. 'My job is to go out and play when I'm put on the field, so how that's going, I'm going to put in the work, I'm going to do the extra stuff. I'm going to do everything to have my case of why I believe I should be the backup.'

Philadelphia Eagles WR Darius Cooper, who is making a strong bid for a roster spot, played 29 offensive snaps, or 66 percent of the plays, in the preseason opener Saturday, Aug. 15, against the Baltimore Ravens. He led the team with 21 receiving yards on two receptions with a team-high five targets.
Link to story Raiders | Malik Benson sees first-team reps Sun Aug 16, 02:46 PM
Las Vegas Raiders WR Malik Benson has been getting first-team reps with the offense in practice. 'He's earned those reps but he's got to stay humble and stay hungry,' head coach Klint Kubiak said Sunday, Aug. 16.
| Footballguys view: Deep dynasty league players should have Benson on their radar, especially in .5/nonPPR leagues or leagues with big play bonuses. His deep speed is as good as any receiver in the class, and it sounds like he is taking to NFL coaching in his first training camp. |
Packers | Several Green Bay players out for practice Sun Aug 16, 02:25 PM

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) was back on offense during team reps practice Sunday, Aug. 16, and he had a touchdown reception from QB Jordan Love. He had his first on-field catches of training camp after offseason surgery. He remains on track to be ready for the regular season.
| Footballguys view: Kraft indicated that the would "take into account his rep range" until halfway through the season and then "pat him on his -censored- and send him to the wolves". Considering that he was the TE1 in PPR leagues when he went down with a torn ACL last year, his 6th/7th round ADP more than takes into account the ramp up time he will need to be his old self, but this is confirmation that the team doesn't see him as truly full go to begin the season. |

Dolphins | Quinn Ewers nursing groin injury Sun Aug 16, 02:12 PM
Miami Dolphins QB Quinn Ewers (groin) suffered a groin injury in the preseason game Friday, Aug. 14, against the Washington Commanders, according to a league source. Ewers struggled with his completion percentage in the game, and it was enough of a concern that the team re-signed QB Mark Gronowski.
| Footballguys view: Some thought Ewers was good enough late last season to push Malik Willis, or at least give the team an alternative if Willis struggled mightily in his first starting job. Now it's unsure if he'll be able to back up Willis up against the Raiders in Week 1. |
