Cowboys | George Pickens will not hold out Wed Jun 17, 03:59 PM
Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens said he is ready to play on the franchise tag tender this upcoming season and plans to be a full participant during training camp.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com noted, the expectation was always that Pickens wouldn't hold out after he signed his franchise tag, but knowing the mercurial wideout's history, assuming anything with him is a risky proposition. But Pickens alleviated any concerns on Wednesday. "Like I said, the group of guys that's with the Cowboys kind of prevents you [from holding out]," Pickens said. "I talk to Dak [Prescott] . . . He's definitely gonna make you not want to hold out." Pickens led the team in targets (137), catches (93), yards (1,429), and touchdowns (eight) in 2025, his first season in Dallas. |

Broncos | More work for Bo Nix Wed Jun 17, 03:10 PM
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix (ankle) participated in seven-on-seven drills during practice Wednesday, June 17.
| Footballguys view: Nix, who told reporters on Tuesday that he could play right now if he wanted, has been limited up to this point. He reiterated on Wednesday that he could've been a full participant in minicamp practices if the medical and coaching staff had let him. In his second NFL season, Nix threw for 3,931 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions, adding 356 rushing yards and five scores on the ground. As previously noted, Nix is going as QB15 right now. That's a good price for a player who's finished in the top 10 at his position his first two seasons. |
Commanders | Jacory Croskey-Merritt back on field Tuesday Wed Jun 17, 03:01 PM
Washington Commanders RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt (undisclosed) participated in practice Tuesday, June 16, after missing the voluntary workouts because of an undisclosed reason, according to ESPN.com's John Keim.
| Footballguys view: It's a crowded running backs room in Washington, and head coach Dan Quinn said Croskey-Merritt has to show what he can do in pass protection, among other areas, this summer. Getting back on the field will keep him in the competition with free-agent additions Rachaad White and Jerome Ford, fellow holdover Jeremy McNichols, and rookie Kaytron Allen. This will be a backfield to watch in August. |

Saints | Two RBs limited Tuesday Wed Jun 17, 02:45 PM
New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal (knee) and RB Kendre Miller (knee) were limited during practice Tuesday, June 16, according to ESPN.com's Katherine Terrell.
| Footballguys view: The fact that Neal, who was hurt in OTAs, and Miller, who tore an ACL last season, were involved at all is a positive. Worth noting, veteran running back Alvin Kamara was back at minicamp, with his status unchanged from his appearance at OTAs two weeks ago. Addressing Kamara's contract remains one of the last big tasks the Saints have this summer. Kamara did limited work at practice and did not participate in 11-on-11 drills, which coach Kellen Moore said was part of the plan since he has had limited practice time with the team. |

Saints | Jordyn Tyson limited Wed Jun 17, 02:38 PM
New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson (undisclosed) was limited during practice Tuesday, June 16.
| Footballguys view: Tyson has been sidelined or limited for the majority of OTAs due to a nagging hamstring injury. Tyson is expected to continue to be limited for their mandatory minicamp as well. As SI.com suggests, this is likely just the team being overly cautious, but because of his injury history, it's noteworthy. We'll be watching closely when training camp opens next month to see what Tyson's level of participation is before we start rethinking his value. |

Jets | Cade Klubnik on field Wednesday Wed Jun 17, 01:14 PM
New York Jets QB Cade Klubnik (back) is on the field during practice Wednesday, June 17, but is not participating in position drills. He did not participate in practice Tuesday, June 16.
| Footballguys view: Klubnik has been out of practice with back soreness, so his return is a positive. As Profootballtalk.com notes, the Jets' plan is for Bailey Zappe to serve as the No. 2 quarterback behind starter Geno Smith. Klubnik could earn the No. 2 job, but missing time now could put him behind in training camp. A year ago, Klubnik was viewed as a future first-round draft pick, but he had a disappointing final college season, and his draft stock slid to the fourth. The Jets think he has plenty of upside. But they need to see it on the field. |

Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (undisclosed) did not participate in practice Tuesday, June 16, because of a minor injury. Head coach Kevin Stefanski said London could have practiced if needed but was held out as a precaution.
| Footballguys view: Via Will McFadden of the team's website, Stefanski said on Wednesday that London is dealing with a "little thing" and the club is being "ultra cautious" with the wideout. Stefanski added that London could have practiced, but the head coach decided to hold him out of the session. We'll continue to watch this. But for now, there's no reason to view London as anything but the fantasy WR1 candidate he is. |

Titans | Cam Ward committed to craft Wed Jun 17, 11:46 AM
Tennessee Titans QB Cam Ward's commitment to being a great quarterback is awesome, according to quarterbacks coach Shea Tierney.
| Footballguys view: New Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll is focused on helping Ward grasp the offense and operate it smoothly. Daboll wants Ward to be on the same page as pass catchers, which comes from spending extensive time in the film room and on the field. Ward is a QB2 candidate for fantasy purposes, but whatever success he achieves will bleed over to other, more fantasy-relevant players here. |
NFL | Brendan Sorsby with real upside Wed Jun 17, 10:26 AM
Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby has real NFL upside in his size, athleticism and running ability, according to ESPN insider Field Yates. Sorsby had a chance to be a top-10 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com notes, while Sorsby was primed to be a top quarterback prospect in the 2027 NFL Draft, he will still be held in high regard, finding the NFL a year earlier in 2026. Sorsby has the size, athleticism, and experience to garner NFL interest. That said, the odds that Sorsby starts for any NFL team come Week 1 of the season are near zero. Rosters are just about set, especially regarding the QB1 position. However, Sorsby can offer long-term upside in dynasty fantasy football. |
Lions | Sam LaPorta looking good for start of '26 season Wed Jun 17, 12:41 AM
Detroit Lions TE Sam LaPorta (back) is 'trending the right way' with his back injury, and is expected to be ready for the regular season, according to a Tuesday, June 16 report.
| Footballguys view: LaPorta finished as the TE1 in fantasy in 2023, defying history when it came to rookie tight ends as fantasy producers. But he's slowed down since, pulling in a combined 100 passes for 1,215 yards and 10 touchdowns in 25 games over the past two seasons. Nonetheless, he was on track for a third straight top-10 finish at his position last year, and he finished seventh in points per game. So, even if you're not sure LaPorta has the upside to return to top-five form, his current TE8 ADP and seventh-round price leave room for upside. |

Broncos | Bo Nix feels great; QB says he could play right now Wed Jun 17, 12:40 AM
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix (ankle) said that bone spurs led to second ankle surgery, but 'I feel great,' according to a report from the Denver Post on Tuesday, June 16. Nix has participated in walkthrough drills and stated that he could play right now if he wanted.
| Footballguys view: Losing Nix to injury in the divisional playoffs was a brutal blow for the Broncos. It was even more painful because Nix finished the season strong. Though he was 15th in QBR for the season (58.3), he registered a 66.3 from Week 13 on (the equivalent of ranking seventh). This year, with Jaylen Waddle joining Courtland Sutton at wideout and QBs coach Davis Webb taking over the playcalling, there's reason to believe Nix can continue his development. Remember, he's finished as QB8 and QB9 in fantasy the last two seasons. Nix is being drafted as QB15 this year. |
Saints | Chris Olave off blood thinners at end of June Wed Jun 17, 12:35 AM
New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave, who has not fully practiced since Week 17 of last season, will reportedly get off of blood thinners on June 29 to potentially be fully cleared for all football activities, according to a source on Tuesday, June 16. Olave has only done individual work during the Saints' offseason training program after missing Week 18 with a blood clot in his lung.
| Footballguys view: The Saints' offense was effective with Tyler Shough under center in 2025, which opened the door for Olave to emerge as the fantasy player we've all been waiting for. In fact, he finished the season as WR6 after closing out the year with 20 or more fantasy points in his final three games. He hit career highs in targets (156), receptions (100), yardage (1,163), and touchdowns (nine). But this issue is one of the reasons he's being drafted as WR11 with the 27th pick overall. Drafting him as your second receiver could be a winning move. |
Chargers | Ladd McConkey strains hamstring, expected to be ready for training camp Wed Jun 17, 12:31 AM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey reportedly strained his left hamstring during the Chargers' offseason program, but doesn't view it as a significant concern and expects to be ready for training camp, according to a source on Tuesday, June 16.
| Footballguys view: "There's no reason to rush it and really push it and then have another setback, and then you bleed into training camp," McConkey told reporters. After what was perhaps the best rookie wide receiving season in team history, where he finished with 82 receptions, 1,149 yards, and seven touchdowns, McConkey took a step back in year two with lesser totals in almost every major category. He ended the 2025 season with 66 catches, 789 yards, and six touchdowns. Going into year three, he's planning for a bounce-back season. McConkey is being drafted as WR19 this year. |
Titans | No issues with Cam Ward's shoulder Wed Jun 17, 12:30 AM
Tennessee Titans QB Cam Ward told reporters at minicamp that his shoulder is fine and he has no issues with it, according to a source on Tuesday, June 16.
| Footballguys view: Ward has had some accuracy issues at times during OTAs over the past couple of weeks, but the Titans' coaching staff isn't concerned. "Every quarterback is going to miss a couple here and there," first-year head coach Robert Saleh said. Still learning a new offense, Ward is also getting acclimated to new receivers Carnell Tate and Wan'Dale Robinson. Ward said there's a feeling-out process between himself and his new pass catchers that can only be eliminated by getting more reps. And he'll get plenty of those when training camp opens. |

Link to story Chargers | Justin Herbert to throw during all three days of minicamp Tue Jun 16, 04:17 PM
Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert will reportedly throw during all three days of this week's mandatory minicamp after taking multiple days off from throwing during OTAs, according to a source on Tuesday, June 16.
| Footballguys view: Herbert has been adjusting his footwork in an effort to get the ball out quicker, so now it's time to cement the new mind-body connection. This approach by new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel will help set up run after catch opportunities and help an offensive line that has potential weakness at both guard spots. |

Link to story Chargers | Ladd McConkey 'working through something' Tue Jun 16, 02:42 PM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey is 'working through something,' according to head coach Jim Harbaugh. No further details were provided.
| Footballguys view: There's no indications that this is anything to be worried about, but McConkey isn't known for his durability, so we'll be tracking this when training camp opens next month. He did reveal that it was a hamstring injury suffered during Phase 2 of the offseason program, so a recurrence in camp would be a red flag. Harbaugh also said that he and offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel think McConkey could have a career year, so if you are in on McConkey, stay in on him. |
Browns | Cleveland 'unlikely' to place Supplemental Draft bid Tue Jun 16, 02:32 PM
Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby is unlikely to have a bid placed on him in the NFL Supplemental Draft by the Cleveland Browns, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer's Mary Kay Cabot.
| Footballguys view: The Browns are one of the teams that make the most sense for Sorsby, so we will take this report with a grain of salt. Perhaps new head coach Todd Monken wants to give Shedeur Sanders a chance to be the clear quarterback of the future, but as we've seen in the past with Cleveland, quarterback decisions aren't always made by the football operations employees. |
Falcons | Michael Penix Jr. still working his way back Tue Jun 16, 02:28 PM
Atlanta Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. (knee) has not yet been cleared for 11-on-11 work, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. He added, 'He's exactly where he needs to be.'
| Footballguys view: Until Penix is healthy, the quarterback competition won't truly get underway in Atlanta. Hopefully both he and Tua Tagovailoa look like starting quality quarterbacks in camp to make Stefanski's decision more difficult, but enhance the value of the players in the Falcons offense. |
Saints | Devin Neal rehabbing an injury Tue Jun 16, 02:26 PM
New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal is in the rehab process following a knee injury suffered last week, according to head coach Kellen Moore.

NFL | Brendan Sorsby applies to enter NFL Supplemental Draft Tue Jun 16, 01:21 PM
Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby has reportedly applied to enter the NFL's Supplemental Draft, according to a source on Monday, June 15.
| Footballguys view: Which team(s) will bid a future pick to land Sorsby, and in which round(s)? That question will be occupying many football minds, but first we need to know whether the NFL will allow him to enter the supplemental draft. Cleveland, the Jets, and Minnesota are among the teams most commonly mentioned as possibilities anywhere from the second to fifth round, by the way. |
Saints | Alvin Kamara reports for minicamp Tue Jun 16, 01:21 PM
New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara reported for the start of the mandatory minicamp Monday, June 15.
| Footballguys view: Kamara could get traded, get released (and possibly then retire), or just play for the Saints this season. Every day he shows up at the team facility is one day closer to the third outcome, but the first two will save the Saints money. If Kamara is a Saint come Week 1, that's a hit for Travis Etienne's fantasy value, especially in PPR leagues because Kamara's most likely role is as a passing down back. |

Jaguars | Jacksonville pursued J.K. Dobbins Tue Jun 16, 01:21 PM
Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins was close to a contract agreement with the Jacksonville Jaguars this offseason before deciding to re-sign with the Broncos, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: This could be an indication that the Jaguars want to have a running back committee with a strong between the tackles runner to pair with Bhayshul Tuten. Chris Rodriguez Jr. is out after having foot surgery earlier in the offseason. He was the back the Jags pivoted to when they didn't land Dobbins. |
