Packers | RB Josh Jacobs' case still open, pending resolution Mon Jul 27, 04:34 PM
A May 2026 arrest of Packers running back Josh Jacobs following a domestic disturbance resulted in no charges being filed. But Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports the Brown County District Attorney's Office said via email on July 23 that the investigation is "still open" and that "there will be an update provided once a resolution is reached."
| Footballguys view: Jacobs remains available to practice and to play. As PFT's Mike Florio suggests, the possibility of paid leave would arise if he's formally charged with one or more crimes relating to domestic violence, or if the league determines, based on its own investigation, that paid leave is required. For now, it appears that there will be no information until he's charged. Even if he isn't charged, Jacobs could be subject to discipline under the Personal Conduct Policy. We'll continue to monitor while reminding you that Marshawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks are next men up at the position. |

49ers rookie wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling joined the 49ers with the top pick of the second round, and the selection drew some negative reviews because of who else was available at that point in the draft. Stribling can't do anything to change the initial response, but the long-term opinion of the choice will be shaped by what the receiver does now, and quarterback Brock Purdy thinks Stribling is going to make an impact. "Dude is a baller, and I mean that," Purdy said.
| Footballguys view: The QB continued: "It's hard to say that for a rookie, right off the jump, but just seeing him run routes, going up against defenders in OTAs and then in camp yesterday. He's a great route runner. He's smart. He's learned the playbook really quick, which is awesome. And then, on top of that, you can see his strength, too." The 49ers also signed Mike Evans and Christian Kirk to go with Ricky Pearsall, so there's a lot to sort out when it comes to doling out playing time for the regular season. The three veteran wideouts have had injury issues, however, and that could make the rookie an important piece of the puzzle right away. |

San Francisco 49ers DE Romello Height (leg) was carted off the field after suffering an apparent lower leg injury during practice Monday, July 27.
Link to storyArizona Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love and RB Tyler Allgeier shared snaps with the first-team offense during practice Sunday, July 26.
| Footballguys view: Allgeier got the first rep, and the two alternated after that. While Love getting first-team snaps isn't a surprise, it's interesting to see the day after OC Nathaniel Hackett answered a question about Love by saying, "I mean, he's definitely a rookie." James Conner and Trey Benson are also practicing, so these first-team reps matter. We'll continue to monitor. |
New England Patriots FB Reggie Gilliam (undisclosed) was not on the field for practice Sunday, July 26.

When the Colts take the practice field on Wednesday for 11-on-11 periods, quarterback Daniel Jones is expected to be under center. While appearing on the Pat McAfee Show on Monday, Jones said that he was ready to go. "Plan is to be back in 11-on-11 in full team drills," Jones said on The Pat McAfee Show. "I'm ready to go."
| Footballguys view: Today's news is more confirmation than revelation. Jones has spent the offseason rehabbing an Achilles injury that he suffered in Week 14 last season. A few weeks ago, the QB said he was "cleared to do everything." Then, appearing on ESPN on Sunday, Jones said he was "good to go" and "excited to get rolling." HC Shane Steichen mentioned on Saturday that Jones would be a "full participant" once camp began. Jones signed a two-year, $88 million deal with the club and hopes to regain last season's first-half form, where he and the offense were off to impressive starts. |

San Francisco 49ers DT Gracen Halton (knee) and DE Andrew Farmer (back) will not participate in practice Monday, July 27.
Link to storySan Francisco 49ers WR Christian Kirk (calf) will not participate in practice Monday, July 27, because of a calf strain.
| Footballguys view: Kirk signed with the 49ers this offseason after catching 28 passes for 239 yards and a touchdown in 13 regular-season games for the Texans last year. He also had 10 catches for 164 yards and two touchdowns in the playoffs. He seems likely to be a contributor in this offense -- assuming he can stay on the field. We'll follow up as needed. |

Link to storyFree-agent RB Miles Sanders (Cowboys) worked out for the Las Vegas Raiders Monday, July 27, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Sanders missed most of last season with a knee injury, but he's trying to get back on the field this year. Sanders played four games for the Cowboys last year before being shut down. He had 20 carries for 117 yards and a touchdown, along with eight catches for 30 yards. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Sanders, who also played for the Panthers and Eagles, has been fully cleared after having surgery to address his injured knee. The Raiders have Ashton Jeanty at the top of a running back group that also includes 2026 fourth-rounder Mike Washington and Dylan Laube. |

Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price has been used a lot in the passing game in the first few days of training camp. They've put him on the first-team, second-team and third-team offenses in 11-on-11 drills.
| Footballguys view: Price is in line for a major opportunity to replace Ken Walker III. GM John Schneider drafted Price, hoping that possibility would eventually come to fruition. How quickly the vision becomes reality depends on Price's early effectiveness. As USA Today notes, Walker ranked fourth on the Seahawks in receptions last season. There's a clear need to replace his production in the passing game. That new OC Brian Fleury is giving Price, who totaled just 15 receptions in three seasons at Notre Dame, the reps necessary to get up to speed is a good sign. We'll be watching for more. |
Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride said there are 'a lot' of things he is working to improve. 'I just want to keep getting better every day,' McBride said. 'And that's kind of my goal. And I'm going to keep trying to do that every year. And hopefully each year will exceed the previous.'
| Footballguys view: That will be tough. McBride, coming off a monstrous 315.9-point campaign, finished 2025 with 126 receptions, 1,239 yards, and 11 touchdowns. That's 105.1 points more than Atlanta's Kyle Pitts Sr., who was the next highest scorer at the position. McBride averaged 18.6 fantasy points per game. His league-high 15 top-12 fantasy weeks were six more than any other player at the position. Concerns? McBride's 11 touchdowns last year nearly doubled his combined total of six scores over his first three seasons. Still, his second-round price tag makes him a reasonable buy at cost. |
Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (ankle, back) briefly exited practice on two occasions Sunday, July 26.
| Footballguys view: Harrison pulled himself out of practice twice. The first time, after sitting on the field for a few moments, he stood up and pointed toward his left ankle while talking to a trainer. The second time, he looked to be in pain, grimacing a few times as he stood on the sideline. He appeared to stretch out his back, standing, and did a cobra pose twice. We'll follow up as needed. While Harrison was out, wide receiver Simi Fehoko got reps with the first-team offense, potentially signifying his place in the receiving rotation. |
New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte has 'delivered highlight plays' in each of the first two days of training camp, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: In a crowded Patriots wide receiver room, which includes trade acquisition A.J. Brown and big-money free agent signing Romeo Doubs, it was Boutte who made waves. On Sunday, he corralled a back-shoulder throw from QB Drake Maye despite being tightly covered. That came a day after Boutte got behind the defense to snare a diving 40-yard reception. While there's been speculation about a possible trade, it's not a stretch to believe Boutte will be a contriutor if he remains in New England. |

San Francisco 49ers RB Jordan James appears to be 'next up' behind RB Christian McCaffrey, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Rookie Kaelon Black and Patrick Taylor Jr. are also in the mix. And while NBCSports Bay Area's Jennifer Lee Chan told us last week that she expects Black to move ahead of James this summer, Wagoner's reporting makes it clear that hasn't happened yet. But again, early, and we'll see how that continues to play out. |

Kansas City Chiefs WR Cyrus Allen made a leaping catch between two defenders in the end zone during practice Sunday, July 26, and he said he is working to build chemistry with QB Patrick Mahomes.

Seattle Seahawks S Nick Emmanwori's (ankle) availability for Week 1 is in question, head coach Mike Macdonald said Saturday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: Emmanwori's problem ankle got hurt in Week 1 - which caused him to miss three games - and then was reinjured in practice the week before the Super Bowl. He had surgery earlier in July, and the team surely won't rush him back. The Patriots, Cardinals, and Commanders open up the regular season schedule for Seattle and would benefit if Emmanwori is limited or out. |
New England Patriots LB Harold Landry's (knee) availability for the start of the regular season is uncertain at this point, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.
| Footballguys view: The Patriots did sign free agent EDGE Dre'Mont Jones, who had seven sacks in 18 games with the Titans and Ravens last year, but they also lost K'Lavon Chaisson, who had a breakout season in New England, to Washington in free agency. If Landry isn't ready to go early in the season, the Seahawks, Steelers, Jaguars and Bills are the first four opponents and most likely beneficiaries of an upgraded passing matchup. |

Baltimore Ravens DT Nnamdi Madubuike (neck) was placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Saturday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: This is big news for the Ravens, as Madubuike is the team's best interior defensive lineman. It wasn't certain that he would be cleared to practice, but he was by independent spine/cervical doctors after only playing in two games last year before his season was over due to a neck injury. He could practice as soon as next week if everything in his return to the field goes well. |

Chicago Bears LB Keyshaun Elliott (undisclosed), CB Kyler Gordon (undisclosed), LB Noah Sewell (undisclosed), OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) and DE Shemar Turner (undisclosed) were placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Saturday, July 25. The team also placed LB T.J. Edwards (undisclosed) on the Active/Non-Football Injury list.
| Footballguys view: The most important name here is Trapilo, who emerged as the team's starting left tackle as a rookie second round pick last year. The team still has Braxton Jones, who he supplanted, and they signed former Browns first round pick Jedrick Wills as a reclamation project for depth. Trapilo tore a patellar tendon, so he's projected to miss most of the season, and there's no guarantee that he'll play at all. |

Link to storySan Francisco 49ers WR Christian Kirk reportedly walked off the field with a trainer midway through Sunday's practice session, but we should get some definitive word from acting HC Chris Foerster about Kirk, according to a source on Sunday, July 26.
| Footballguys view: The Panthers were the most star-crossed injury team so far this summer, but the 49ers have held that title for many years (tinfoil hats on). Kirk was limited by hamstring issues last year with Houston. If he has trouble staying on the field this year, that will present another avenue for second round pick De'Zhaun Stribling to have an impact in fantasy leagues in his rookie year. |

Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett's deal is worth $15.5 million for one season, with upside to $21 million, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com on Sunday, July 26.

Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett has reportedly agreed to terms on a new deal, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com on Sunday, July 26. Terms of the deal were not immediately disclosed.
| Footballguys view: This is the best outcome you could have hoped for if you are planning on drafting any Arizona Cardinals. Whether that is a good idea is another story. This will keep fourth round pick Carson Beck from getting extensive first team practice reps to make a case to start earlier than later, but most expect Beck to start eventually one way or the other, which could crater whatever value this offense could produce for fantasy football. |

San Francisco 49ers DE Nick Bosa (knee) has been cleared for practice, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Bosa will likely be ramped up in practice over the next two weeks.

Los Angeles Rams RB Blake Corum will be a 'big factor' this season for the Rams offense, according to HC Sean McVay on Sunday, July 26.
| Footballguys view: There has been buzz that Corum will split early down work more evenly with Kyren Williams this offseason. He could have more standalone value, especially with the Rams more heavily favored against inferior competition after they acquired Myles Garrett, but Williams is still going to get more passing down work and be the more valuable fantasy running back. |
Free-agent WR Stefon Diggs (Patriots) is reportedly being checked on by five NFL teams, but the Washington Commanders are 'intriguing' to Diggs, as a native of the area, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com on Sunday, July 26.
| Footballguys view: We already know that Diggs is interested in playing with Jayden Daniels, and the Commanders certainly need an experienced #2 wide receiver target behind Terry McLaurin. Right now rookie third round pick Antonio Williams, former Titans first round pick Treylon Burks, Commanders recent mid-round draft picks Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane, and Dyami Brown (who is back after a nondescript year in Jacksonville) are the current candidates for snaps and targets behind McLaurin. Landing in Washington is the best outcome for Diggs fantasy value, but the Commanders might not want to bring on a player who isn't known as a plus in the locker room. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield would like to have a contract extension finalized by the time veterans report to training camp Tuesday, July 28, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. However, Fowler believes this is an 'artificial deadline' and that intensified negotiations could continue beyond this point if necessary. Mayfield is entering the final season of a three-year, $100 million deal.
| Footballguys view: Most expect a deal to get done, but we shouldn't interpret a lack of a deal before camp opens as a bad sign for his future with the team. Mayfield has already had to bet on himself many times in his career and would probably look at going into the season without an extension as an opportunity to make even more on his eventual new deal with the team. |

Baltimore Ravens DL Nnamdi Madubuike (neck) has received medical clearance to return to the field by independent spine and cervical doctors, according to multiple sources.

If all goes well, Madubuike could begin practicing by next week.
