Giants | Theo Johnson day-to-day Fri Aug 29, 04:00 PM
New York Giants TE Theo Johnson (undisclosed) has not practiced this week and is considered day-to-day, according to head coach Brian Daboll.
Footballguys view: Johnson was a surprise rookie contributor last year and he's one of the fastest tight ends in the league, so there was some anticipation that he could get onto the fantasy radar this year. His injury is a bit mysterious, so we shouldn't be surprised if he's out for Week 1. Daniel Bellinger would be the next man up. |
New York Giants OT Andrew Thomas (foot) said he is not sure if he will be available for the Week 1 game.
Footballguys view: If Thomas still doesn't feel right after suffering a lisfranc injury in 2024, the team shouldn't put him out there against Washington. James Hudson was signed to a two year, $12 million deal in the offseason, but fifth round pick Marcus Mbow has outperformed him and might be the better option if Thomas is out. We can't assume that Thomas will ready for Week 2 against the Micah Parsons-less Cowboys if he's not playing in the opener. |

Free-agent WR Javon Baker (Patriots) plans to join the Philadelphia Eagles practice squad.
Footballguys view: Baker has undeniable talent, but was inconsistent and fell out of favor with two different coaching staffs in two years. He was a fourth round pick last year and should still be on our watch list in deep dynasty leagues. The Eagles have one of the softest wide receiver depth charts in the league, so Baker could climb it quickly if he can redeem himself. |
Tennessee Titans RB Jermar Jefferson was released from the practice squad Friday, Aug. 29.

Green Bay Packers WR Savion Williams (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, Aug. 28.
Footballguys view: Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and Jayden Reed (foot) just returned to practice this week so the Packers will be a bit precarious with only Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, and Malik Heath fully healthy for the season opener against the Lions. Tucker Kraft could play a larger role and Luke Musgrave could be on the field a lot in two tight end sets after having a good summer. |

San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings (calf) did not participate in practice Thursday, Aug. 28.
Footballguys view: At this point, it would be a surprise if Jennings gets in a full practice next week, and if that's the case, it would be unwise for the 49ers play him in Week 1. He has been out for over a month since re-injuring the calf and needs some reconditioning before the team considers putting him in game action. Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle, and Ricky Pearsall should dominate targets in the tough matchup at Seattle in the season opener. |

Kansas City Chiefs WR Jalen Royals (knee) is expected to miss Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers, head coach Andy Reid announced on Friday, Aug. 20.
Footballguys view: Marquise Brown has had a quiet summer after missing most of camp with an ankle injury. but the team will rely on him to play a big role in Week 1. Tyquan Thornton made the final roster after generating some camp buzz and could get some snaps with Royals out and Rashee Rice suspended for the season opener in Brazil against the Chargers. |
Seattle Seahawks WR Jake Bobo (concussion) is still going through the concussion, but head coach Mike Macdonald said the team will know more about his status over the weekend.

Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton (ankle) participated in practice Thursday, Aug. 28. Head coach Mike Macdonald said the team hopes Horton will be a full participant at some point next week.
Footballguys view: Horton is set to open the season as the #3 receiver if he is healthy enough to play. #4 receiver Jake Bobo is in concussion protocol. It's possible that Dareke Young or Cody White will see snaps at wide receiver in the season opener against the 49ers. |

Updating a previous report, Dallas Cowboys DE Micah Parsons was acquired by the Green Bay Packers Thursday, Aug. 28, in exchange for DT Kenny Clark and two first-round draft choices.
Footballguys view: This deal is a blockbuster, and you might categorize it as a win-win for both parties involved. The Packers get a superstar pass rusher in a championship window. The Cowboys get a haul for Parsons in return. The Packers' first-round picks may be late, especially if they win it all in the next two years. Clark gives the Cowboys a veteran run-stuffer in the middle of the line. |

Free-agent TE Brenden Bates (Browns) was signed to the Cleveland Browns practice squad Thursday, Aug. 28.
Link to storyDallas Cowboys DE Micah Parsons is being acquired by the Green Bay Packers and has agreed to terms on a four-year contract with the Packers worth $188 million. The team will include $136 million in guaranteed money. It is not known what the Cowboys will receive in return.
Footballguys view: Per Adam Schefter, this signing and makes Parsons the highest-paid non-QB in NFL history. It's a move that clearly shows the Packers are going all in on a championship run in 2025. Parsons is one of the best defenders in the league and can get after the passer with the best of them. |

Free-agent WR Courtney Jackson was signed to the Seattle Seahawks practice squad Thursday, Aug. 28. The team also released RB Anthony Tyus III from the practice squad.
Footballguys view: Jackson was impressive for the Broncos this summer in training camp and the preseason. He's a speedy receiver with the ability to be a return man as well. In crazy deep dynasty formats we'll keep an eye on him. |

Updating a previous report, free-agent RB Jeff Wilson Jr. (49ers) and RB JaMycal Hasty (Patriots) were signed to the Miami Dolphins practice squad Thursday, Aug. 28.
Footballguys view: Wilson is back with the Dolphins, and he fits the system. With his speed and three-down ability, Fantasy GMs in super deep leagues should monitor his situation. If injuries strike at the position, Wilson is the type of veteran the Dolphins could turn to. |

Puni was seen running on a side field and had no sleeve on his knee like he did last week. He injured his right posterior cruciate ligament in a preseason game against the Las Veges Raiders on Aug. 16

Link to storyTampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (ankle) will miss the first month of the season and possibly more, general manager Jason Licht announced on Thursday, Aug. 28.
Footballguys view: Godwin will miss at least the first month of the season, so it could be more than just four weeks. While Godwin is out, rookie WR Emeka Egbuka will be tasked with doing more opposite Mike Evans. Once Godwin returns (and perhaps takes some time to shake off the rust), he should perform like a WR3/flex play. |

Free-agent WR Russell Gage Jr. (49ers) signed a one-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers Thursday, Aug. 28. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Footballguys view: The 49ers continue to add to their wide receiver room here. Gage could be involved early in the season with guys like Brandon Aiyuk (knee), Jauan Jennings (calf), and Demarcus Robinson (suspension) out of action. Even with more snaps, Gage is just a 'what the heck' flex in super deep leagues. |
