Link to storyDallas Cowboys DT Quinnen Williams agreed to terms on a three-year contract extension with the Cowboys Monday, Aug. 10, worth $105.9 million.
| Footballguys view: Williams was sent to Dallas at the trade deadline last season in a deal with the New York Jets. In return, Dallas sent Mazzi Smith and a pair of draft picks away. The Jets first selected Williams with the No. 3 overall pick in 2019 out of Alabama, and he has earned four straight Pro-Bowl nods while dominating on the defensive line. He had 1.5 sacks and 21 total tackles in seven games with the Cowboys last season. |

Link to storyChargers OC Mike McDaniel on the running back share between Omarion Hampton, Kimani Vidal, and Keaton Mitchell: "Bad news, fantasy owners. Good news is I see all three of those guys producing at a very high level. Bad news is I can't tell you which games those are."
| Footballguys view: McDaniel went on to suggest he'll probably use all three every game, with the workload depending on the opponent and "hot hand." We'll continue to watch for more on this, but Footballguys Jason Wood reacted to the news by dropping Hampton from RB9 to RB17 in his projections on this news, dropping the second-year man to 200 carries and 10% target share from 230 carries and 11.5% target share, with his rushing TDs going from 9 to 7. Expect Mitchell and Vidal to rise on this news, but not to startable levels. |

Link to storyMiami Dolphins PK Zane Gonzalez (undisclosed) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Gonzalez has been competing with Riley Patterson, who was excellent for the Dolphins last year, making 93% of his field goals - a franchise record. As Footballguy Sigmund Bloom noted this week, Gonzalez has been the more accurate kicker to date in camp, but there's no reason to believe the Dolphins won't be comfortable rolling with Patterson again this fall. Gonzales, meanwhile, will miss the entire season unless the Dolphins release him. |

Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix said he is not sure if he will play in the first preseason game.
| Footballguys view: With Nix coming off ankle surgery and having a history of ankle injuries, a cautious approach to exhibition action makes sense. As USA Today suggested, if Nix stays healthy, the Broncos could make another deep playoff run this season. To play at his best, though, the QB will continue to make plays with his legs, and his ability to avoid hits and stay on the field will be a key storyline going into the 2026 campaign. |
Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich (hand) fully participated in practice Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Dulcich has been working in a red no-contact jersey. He's dealing with a right hand or finger injury that was reportedly heavily taped, so his return to full-contact work is encouraging. Once healthy, Dulcich is expected to operate as the top receiving tight end in a new-look Dolphins offense that lacks an established pecking order among its pass catchers. |
Green Bay Packers S Javon Bullard (foot) said he is dealing with a bone bruise in his foot but is in no danger of missing the start of the regular season.
Link to storyDenver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (undisclosed) left practice early Monday, Aug. 10, because of an undisclosed reason.
| Footballguys view: Dobbins jogged off the field into the locker room with trainers during Monday's training camp practice. Dobbins left about midway through practice and did not return, according to reporters on site. Broncos coach Sean Payton was asked about Dobbins after practice. "Soft tissue; I think he's going to be fine," Payton said. "We're just being smart with it." We'll watch for more, but Dobbins' practice participation could be impacted ahead of Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons. |

Denver Broncos WR Marvin Mims (undisclosed) was limited during practice Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Mims pulled up in discomfort while running a route on Friday, but he was on the field in pads Monday, working on the side. He appears to be on track to return soon. |
Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (leg) is not participating in practice Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Waddle left last Wednesday's practice with muscle tightness. Waddle is expected to be fine going forward, but the Broncos are clearly playing it safe. He was on the field for Monday's session, getting in mental reps and doing light running on the side. |

San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (undisclosed) is not participating in practice Monday, Aug. 10, because of tightness.
| Footballguys view: Monday's practice is the first one the 30-year-old RB has missed in this year's camp. As USA Today's Kyle Madson suggested, given McCaffrey's importance to the 49ers, it's not a huge surprise they'd be cautious with any issue he's having. Even general tightness isn't worth pushing on Aug. 10 with a joint practice against the Tennessee Titans looming Tuesday. It's unclear whether McCaffrey will be ready in time to participate in that joint session. We'll follow up, but there's nothing to indicate McCaffrey will be out for any prolonged period. |

Cleveland Browns WR Denzel Boston will start working with the first-team offense during training camp, according to head coach Todd Monken.
| Footballguys view: Akron Beacon Journal beat writer Chris Easterling told us late last month that Boston was arguably the offseason MVP for Cleveland's offense. Given his size and physical style of play, Easterling believes Boston could emerge as more than a threat in the red zone; he might also draw the most targets and catch more passes than the rest of the team's wideouts. KC Concepcion, as WR51, is currently the first Browns receiver off the board, in the 11th round. Boston is WR60, available in Round 13. The team's quarterback will be a factor here, but Boston's drumbeat is getting louder. |
Los Angeles Chargers WR Mante' Morrow was waived Monday, Aug. 10.

Link to storyDetroit Lions RB Isiah Pacheco (knee) suffered a sprained medial collateral ligament.
| Footballguys view: Head coach Dan Campbell suggested Pacheco will miss some time. Campbell said he expects Pacheco to return before Detroit's Week 1 home contest against the New Orleans Saints and that he's "not concerned" about the injury. Expect Pacheco to remain the top backup to Jahmyr Gibbs. Pacheco's primary competition for snaps behind Gibbs, Sione Vaki, is currently sidelined by a broken nose. |
Detroit Lions C Cade Mays (wrist) suffered a wrist injury, and head coach Dan Campbell said Mays will miss a significant amount of time.
| Footballguys view: A source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport that Mays fractured a small bone in his wrist that is expected to sideline him roughly eight to 10 weeks. Without Mays, the Lions are expected to try Juice Scruggs at center as they attempt to find the best fit at the position before the season opener against New Orleans on Sept. 13. According to Footballguys offensive line analyst Matt Bitonti, the loss of Mays drops Detroit from 16th to 19th in his O-line rankings. Bitonti added that Scruggs might be a slightly better run blocker than Mays. |
