Chargers | Tyler Biadasz carted off with apparent leg injury Tue Aug 18, 04:53 PM

Los Angeles Chargers OC Tyler Biadasz (leg) was reportedly carted off with a leg injury after a defender in practice with the San Francisco 49ers fell into his leg during an 11-on-11 drill, according to a source on Tuesday, Aug. 18.

Footballguys view: Biadasz played for the Commanders last season and signed with the Chargers in March. He was the biggest piece of an interior offensive line overhaul by general manager Joe Hortiz. An extended absence would be bad news for the offense. With Biadasz out, rookie Jake Slaughter took reps at center.

49ers | Christian Kirk continues to miss time; roster spot in question Tue Aug 18, 04:25 PM

49ers wide receiver Christian Kirk still isn't back at practice after straining his calf midway through the first training camp practice. "That's been unfortunate for him because he had the same thing in OTAs, so he missed that," head coach Kyle Shanahan said. "And he hasn't been ready to go. He did it the first practice, before we even got to team periods, so I know he's been extremely frustrated with it."

Footballguys view: Kirk went from fighting for a starting spot to fighting for a roster spot. Shanahan added: "We love the guy so far, but hopefully, he can have some better luck going forward here so he gets some reps out here." Demarcus Robinson, De'Zhaun Stribling, and Jordan Watkins have all gained ground in Kirk's absence.

49ers | Mike Evans leaves practice early Tue Aug 18, 04:24 PM

49ers wide receiver Mike Evans exited Tuesday's joint practice early. He had his left foot/ankle initially wrapped in ice, according to multiple reports, but later had only his quad wrapped in an ice pack.

Footballguys view: "They just said he has some tightness, so we were just being smart, taking him out," head coach Kyle Shanahan said. "I don't think it's anything worse, so we'll see when we get in there, but nothing that I'm worried about right now." Evans strained a quadriceps in the Aug. 1 practice and didn't return until Aug. 15. We'll continue to monitor his status in the coming days.

Seahawks | Jadarian Price returns to full participation in practice Tue Aug 18, 04:20 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price (upper leg soreness) has reportedly returned to practice on Monday and will still be ramped up for 'unlimited work', according to HC Mike Macdonald on Tuesday, Aug. 18.

Footballguys view: Price had missed the previous five full practices. The 32nd pick in this year's NFL draft from Notre Dame looked as smooth and decisive on his cuts and running with the ball as he did in the first weeks of his first pro training camp, before the injury. Then, Price was coming into the starting offense in scrimmages after third-year veteran George Holani. That was reversed Monday. It was another indication that Price will be the lead back as Seattle drafted him to be on Sept. 9, when the Seahawks host the New England Patriots.

Texans | Jayden Higgins should be fine after injury scare Tue Aug 18, 04:10 PM

Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins left the team's joint practice with the Raiders early. It appeared to be a lower-body injury, Jonathan Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Footballguys view: Higgins hit the ground on a red-zone play in team drills. Athletic trainers checked him out before he walked off the field under his own power. Coach DeMeco Ryans did not offer an update after practice, but quarterback C.J. Stroud said he thinks Higgins is "fine." Higgins, who had 41 catches for 525 yards and six touchdowns as a rookie last year, has had a productive camp. Higgins is being drafted as WR53 in Round 11.

Colts | Charvarius Ward with no timetable Tue Aug 18, 04:05 PM

49ers | Mykel Williams may miss start of regular season Tue Aug 18, 03:29 PM

San Francisco 49ers DE Mykel Williams (knee) is a 'longshot' to play in Week 1, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

49ers | Christian McCaffrey could have practiced Tue Aug 18, 03:13 PM

San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (muscle tightness) would have practiced on Tuesday, Aug. 18, if they were not joint sessions, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Footballguys view: There has been speculation that McCaffrey's injury is actually a hold-in, but Shanahan cleared the air on the situation. Shanahan said that speculation about McCaffrey not practicing for contract-related reasons "would be wrong." NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported the same on Monday night. McCaffrey's recent past -- in particular his injury-marred 2024 season -- makes it hard to take these issues at face value. But with multiple reports suggesting the star running back's absence is for exactly the reason stated, we remain optimistic. Also, we'll be watching closely for reasons not to be.

Jaguars | Parker Washington expected back next week Tue Aug 18, 03:04 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Parker Washington (undisclosed injury) is expected to return to practice next week.

Footballguys view: The issue will certainly keep Washington from playing in Friday's preseason contest against the Panthers. It remains to be seen if Washington will see any action in the Jaguars' Aug. 28 exhibition finale, but, as CBSSports.com suggests, it doesn't appear at this time that his Week 1 status is in question. Entering his fourth season, Washington appeared in 16 games with seven starts last year, catching 58 passes for 847 yards with five touchdowns. Washington is being drafted as WR31 in Round 6. He has upside at that price.
