Free-agent TE Taysom Hill (Saints) is still deciding if he will continue his playing career but indicated he will not be re-signing with the New Orleans Saints if he plays in 2026.
| Footballguys view: Hill spent nine years with the Saints as a TE/QB/Swiss Army knife player. He may not have many suitors based on his age and declining skill set. However, Broncos HC Sean Payton used Hill in a variety of ways. Hill turns 36 in August, but he could be a versatile reserve tight end and quarterback for the Broncos. Stay tuned. |

Carolina Panthers WR Chris Brazzell II (knee) is scheduled to undergo surgery on his torn lateral collateral ligament and will miss the entire 2026 season, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Brazzell should be placed on Injured Reserve in the near future. The initial thought was Brazzell might be able to avoid surgery. Instead, the Panthers are looking at long-term health for their rookie receiver. He should be 100 percent ready for training camp next year. |
Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield said he is disappointed that the Buccaneers only offered him a two-year contract extension and that the team did not offer anything close to the $50 million per season he was looking for in the negotiations.
| Footballguys view: Mayfield is coming off a down season, and without a new contract he's got a chance to break the bank with a bounce-back year. The Buccaneers were unwilling to commit to Mayfield in terms of annual salary and contract length. Anything is possible, but it seems like this could be Mayfield's final year with the Buccaneers. Mayfield has a current ADP of QB18 (11.06) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Seattle Seahawks DT Deven Eastern (undisclosed) passed his physical Thursday, July 30, and has been activated from the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list.
Link to storyWashington Commanders WR Treylon Burks (foot) will not participate in practice Thursday, July 30, according to head coach Dan Quinn.
| Footballguys view: Burks was re-signed earlier this year to give the Commanders veteran depth. He's in line to compete for the no.4 spot on the roster. Terry McLaurin, Antonio Williams, and Luke McCaffrey are ahead of Burks on the depth chart. |
Tennessee Titans OT JC Latham (undisclosed) was activated from the Active/Physically Unable to Perform Thursday, July 30.
Link to storyTennessee Titans WR Calvin Ridley (illness) will participate in practice Thursday, July 30.
| Footballguys view: Coming off an injury-shortened 2025 season, Ridley reworked his contract to stay with the Titans this offseason. This year, with Carnell Tate and Wan'Dale Robinson at the top of the depth chart, Ridley is working to be the team's no.3 receiver. There's not much fantasy value there with Ridley, and we've got him as our consensus WR76 entering the 2026 season. |

Link to storyAtlanta Falcons QB Tua Tagovailoa (back) returned to practice Thursday, July 30, doing individual work.
| Footballguys view: Falcons HC Kevin Stefanski said this was a "flare up" for the veteran quarterback. With Michael Penix saying he is likely a month away from doing more than 7-on-7 work, getting Tagovailoa back out there is good news for Atlanta. We are likely to see Tagovailoa as the Falcons' starter in Week 1. |

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman was 'in sync' with QB Lamar Jackson during training camp Wednesday, July 29.
| Footballguys view: In the spring, Ravens HC Jesse Minter said he's "got a lot of confidence in" Bateman. It sounds like that confidence is being somewhat rewarded with great chemistry continuing to develop with Jackson. What does that mean for Fantasy GMs? Everyone has tempered expectations as per usual, and Bateman has a current ADP of WR62 (21.07) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave only participated in position drills during practice Wednesday, July 29, because of his contract situation, according to head coach Kellen Moore.
| Footballguys view: Health is not an issue for Olave, even though he missed time this offseason due to being on blood thinners to treat a blood clot (lung) found at the end of the 2025 season. Saints GM Mickey Loomis did say this week that Olave is "full go" at the start of training camp. We'll see now if Loomis get Olave a new contract that makes him one of the highest-paid receivers in the NFL. |

Head coach Kevin O'Connell said on Tuesday that Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy will both work with the first team as he makes his decision about who will be under center for Week 1. On Wednesday, we saw Murray in the lead spot. Jori Epstein of Yahoo Sports reports that Murray was the first man up when the Vikings moved into 11-on-11 work and that he hit wide receiver Jordan Addison for a 30-yard gain.
| Footballguys view: The first practice of training camp also served as the kickoff for the final stage of their quarterback competition. "I'm not really too focused on the long-term vision of it," Murray said before practice. "I'm focused on the process, and that's day to day, coming out here with this walkthrough and then practice later . . . Prove to the coaches and guys what I'm capable of." As PFT notes, McCarthy will get his chances to prove the same point, and all of the developments on the field in Minnesota will be closely followed until O'Connell makes his call. |

Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. says he'll be "full-go" for training camp after missing the offseason program due to groin surgery.
| Footballguys view: Adding to that, Akron Beacon Journal staffer Chris Easterling told us last week that team officials weren't at all concerned about Fannin's health. Now we have more confirmation of that. Fannin, who suffered the injury in Week 17 last season, said he was cleared about two weeks ago. He reported to camp last week with rookies and QBs and has been practicing. Fannin is currently being drafted as TE6, and we expect him to play a major role in Todd Monken's offense. |
