  Colts | Alec Pierce gets another PRP injection to speed healing    Tue Aug 11, 02:17 AM

Colts WR Alec Pierce received another PRP injection in his left ankle, a league source confirms to The Athletic's James Boyd.

Footballguys view: Pierce underwent left ankle surgery in March. This is the second time he's received a platelet-rich plasma injection this offseason. It's not clear when Pierce received the injection. The Indianapolis Star reports the injection wasn't due to a setback in his rehab; instead, the wideout sought the additional procedure to help with lingering soreness and speed up the healing process. The team is yet to offer a concrete update on when the receiver will be back on the field, two weeks after GM Chris Ballard told reporters Pierce was "probably still a week or two away." Stay tuned.

  49ers | Increasing confidence that George Kittle will be ready for Week 1    Tue Aug 11, 02:12 AM

49ers star tight end George Kittle continues to make terrific progress working back from the torn Achilles he suffered in January, and there's a high level of confidence at this point that he'll end up being able to play Week 1 vs. the Rams, sources tell CBSSports' Matt Zenitz.

Footballguys view: On Monday, Kittle was doing what ESPN.com's Nick Wagoner characterized as "the most strenuous workout the media has seen him do: in this camp on the side as he continues to work his way back. Kittle was running routes and catching passes during individual drills. Kittle is being drafted as TE9, which suggests the fantasy hive mind is open to an early return.

Washington Commanders CB Trey Amos (ankle) did not practice on Monday, Aug. 10, after injuring his ankle in practice on Saturday, Aug. 8. The injury is not believed to be serious, and head coach Dan Quinn said they'd 'see where he's at in the next day or two.'

  Eagles | Hamstring continues to sideline DeVonta Smith    Tue Aug 11, 01:34 AM

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) missed practice on Monday, Aug. 10. It was the fifth practice in a row that Smith has missed due to a hamstring injury.

Footballguys view: Fellow wideouts Makai Lemon and Britain Covey have also been absent due to hamstring injuries, leaving Dontayvion Wicks and Hollywood Brown as the team's top healthy wideouts. Elijah Moore and Darius Cooper should also see more first-team snaps as a result. We'll continue monitoring, but as CBSSports.com notes, Smith's hamstring injury is seemingly minor, and the lengthy absence is a precaution.

  Eagles | Makai Lemon misses fifth straight    Tue Aug 11, 01:28 AM

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) did not practice on Monday, Aug. 10, marking the fifth consecutive practice he's missed due a hamstring injury.

Footballguys view: The team is not expressing any long-term concern, but these are meaningful reps -- especially for a rookie. Lemon missed minicamp as well with a hamstring injury. He has served primarily as the starting slot receiver when healthy, but hasn't produced many splash moments to date. It's important that Jalen Hurts gets as many snaps as possible with his skill players as the offense breaks in a new system in the post A.J. Brown era. We'll continue to monitor.

  Chargers | Rashawn Slater still out    Tue Aug 11, 01:05 AM

Los Angeles Chargers OT Rashawn Slater (knee) was held out of practice for a third straight day on Monday, Aug. 10. Slater's absence was initially reported as being part of a veteran's rest day, but ESPN's Kris Rhim writes that the fact that Slater hasn't returned to practice 'suggests there may be more to it.'

  Chiefs | Xavier Worthy makes partial return    Tue Aug 11, 12:54 AM

Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) returned to the practice field on Monday, Aug. 10, but he was limited to individual work and did not take part in 7-on-7 or 11-on-11 reps.

Footballguys view: Worthy, who missed last week's practices with a sprained right shoulder, could be a full participant later this week ahead of the preseason opener Saturday against the Los Angeles Rams. We'll watch for more on that, and suggest that as WR49, a healthy Worthy's 10th round price is appealing.

  Titans | Carnell Tate continues to shine    Tue Aug 11, 12:34 AM

Tennessee Titans WR Carnell Tate has impressed during his first training camp, per ESPN's Turron Davenport, who writes that the rookie's ability to run the full route tree is among his 'standout traits.'

Footballguys view: According to Davenport, Tate was on the receiving end of three touchdown passes from Cam Ward on Monday. The rookie wideout caught a deep pass for a score on a go route and made an impressive catch over CBCor'Dale Flott in the corner of the end zone on another play, and he caught a quick out-breaking route for his third score. "Tate has an innate ability to attack the ball," Titans receivers coach Greg Lewis said after practice. "He can make contested catches. He has long speed and is really smooth." He's being drafted as WR30.

  Colts | Anthony Richardson not a lock for backup job    Tue Aug 11, 12:25 AM

Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson is 'in a fight' for the No. 2 quarterback position with QB Riley Leonard, according to ESPN's Stephen Holder, who writes that both players have dealt with inconsistency thus far in camp.

Footballguys view: Richardson requested a trade in February and was granted permission to speak with other clubs to see if a deal might materialize. Nothing did, so Richardson is back trying to re-establish himself with the organization. Richardson on Sunday said his accuracy needs to be more consistent. He and Leonard will split preseason snaps as their competition continues.

  Steelers | DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman sit out    Tue Aug 11, 12:21 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf (undisclosed) and WR Michael Pittman Jr. (undisclosed) did not participate in practice Monday, Aug. 10.

Footballguys view: Mike McCarthy said Pittman got banged up during the team's Saturday night practice, but the coach didn't disclose any issue with Metcalf. McCarthy has been tight-lipped about injuries and recovery timelines throughout camp. We'll be watching for more. With the pair out, Roman Wilson led off the wide receiver drills as de facto WR1.

  Texans | Brevin Jordan dealing with injury    Tue Aug 11, 12:20 AM

Houston Texans TE Brevin Jordan (knee) is considered day-to-day because of a knee injury, according to head coach DeMeco Ryans.

Footballguys view: As Fansided's Clayton Anderson noted, after missing the last two NFL seasons due to multiple knee injuries, Jordan's opportunities to show his value to the organization were slowly dissipating. That said, there is no reason to believe it's a severe injury at this point. It does put his availability for Thursday's preseason game versus the Chargers into question. According to CBSSports.com, until Jordan is back, rookie second-rounder Marlin Klein could see an uptick in reps.

Dallas 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.

  Chargers | McDaniel splashes cold water on Omarion Hampton's outlook    Mon Aug 10, 04:35 PM

Chargers 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.

Miami 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.

  Broncos | Bo Nix unsure about preseason game    Mon Aug 10, 03:26 PM

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.
