Patriots | Four NE players limited in practice Saturday Sat Aug 1, 11:13 AM
New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson, CBs Christian Gonzalez and Marcus Jones and OG Alijah Vera-Tucker were limited in practice and did not participate in team drills Saturday, Aug. 1, in order for them to stay healthy, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.
| Footballguys view: It sounds like the team is going use load management this summer for some of their starters who aren't exactly old timers, but do have some mileage on their bodies as entrenched starters. This is a good sign that Stevenson is in no danger of losing his starting job to TreVeyon Henderson. |

Packers | Micah Parsons expected to miss 'the first month and a half' Tue Jul 28, 02:06 PM
Green Bay Packers DL Micah Parsons is expected to miss 'the first month and a half of the season,' according to The Athletic's Matt Schneidman.
| Footballguys view: Schneidman believes Parsons ' return in Week 6 is the best-case scenario. Nine months of no football gives him a practice return of Week 4 prep and a couple of weeks to ramp up. "Never doubt a guy with his physical gifts," Schneidman said, "but we also don't know how the rest of his rehab will go." Stay tuned. |

Patriots | Harold Landry may not ready for season Sun Jul 26, 04:37 PM
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. |

| Footballguys view: Last season, Snowden posted a career high in sacks with three for the Raiders in 15 games played. Snowden played in 15 games for Las Vegas, adding 28 tackles, five tackles for loss, and his first career interception. Heading into his fifth season in the NFL, Snowden is tied with James Houston and Sam Williams as the second-most experienced pass rusher on the Cowboys' roster.

NFL | Joey Bosa done playing? Wed Jun 24, 04:06 PM
Free-agent DE Joey Bosa (Bills) may have played his last game in the NFL but things can change, in the opinion of ESPN's Adam Schefter.
| Footballguys view: 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa cast doubt on his older brother Joey playing in the NFL in 2026 in May. Schefter provided more reason to think that the elder Bosa will not be signing with any team before Week 1. During his podcast, Schefter was asked about the prospect of the two brothers playing together and said, "It is more likely than not that Joey Bosa has played his last NFL down." Bosa had 72 sacks in nine seasons with the Chargers and had five sacks with the Bills during the 2025 season. |

Jacksonville Jaguars DE Josh Hines-Allen has collected at least eight sacks in each of the past two seasons, but he is looking to get back to his 2023 form which saw him record a franchise-record 17.5 sacks. He sees a jump in production possible in 2026 in his second season with defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile. 'I think the sky's the limit for myself this year,' Hines-Allen said.

Steelers | Pittsburgh signs two after tryouts Thu Jun 4, 01:21 PM
Free agent TE Robert Tonyan (Chiefs) and LB Jamin Davis (Raiders) signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday, June 4. No terms of the deal were disclosed.
| Footballguys view: It seems incredulous to remember that Tonyan had an 11 touchdown season with the Packers back in 2020. After one target over the last two seasons (with two different teams), it's safe to say Tonyan's best days are behind him. |

Packers | Micah Parsons still months away Wed Jun 3, 02:03 PM
Green Bay Packers DE Micah Parsons (knee) said he still has four more months of rehab before he can consider returning to the field. He said he underwent a procedure on his meniscus in addition to his anterior cruciate ligament repair.
| Footballguys view: Because of that second procedure, Parsons said a nine-month recovery before he's able to play is locked in place. His initial ACL repair was performed on Dec. 29, with nine months after that being Sept. 29. That could put the Week 4 game against the Buccaneers in play. But the Week 5 against the Bears or the Week 6 against the Cowboys could be more realistic, if not the Week 7 divisional contest against the Lions. With this timeline, Parsons will likely start training camp and the regular season on the physically unable to perform list. |

But Steelers Senior Director of Communications Burt Lauten announced that Highsmith wasn't present at Wednesday's practice due to an illness. Lauten also added that Highsmith will continue to be at the practice facility moving forward, all but ending any rumors about the potential absence being related to Herbig's new contract.

Packers | Micah Parsons likely starting camp on PUP list Wed May 27, 01:17 PM
Green Bay Packers DE Micah Parsons (knee) will likely start training camp on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list, according to head coach Matt LaFleur.
| Footballguys view: ESPN's Adam Schefter recently suggested that Parson is a candidate to start the 2026 regular season on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list. If so, he'd miss at least the first six games, so his progress is worth watching when camp opens. The Packers don't have another proven edge rusher after they traded Rashan Gary to the Cowboys in the offseason. We'll be monitoring the reports on 2023 first round pick Lukas Van Ness and this year's fourth round pick Dani Dennis-Sutton to see if edge rush help is on the way while Parsons is on the mend. |
