  Chiefs | Rashee Rice should be ready for camp    Thu Jun 11, 04:44 PM

Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (knee) is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, according to head coach Andy Reid.

Footballguys view: The Chiefs want Rice to be healthy and at his best when the start of the regular season gets here. He could be ready for the start of camp, but we expect the Chiefs to ease Rice into action over the summer. Entering the final year of his rookie contract, Rice needs to get healthy, stay healthy, and stay out of trouble with the law if he wants to get a new deal from Kansas City.

  Browns | Jerry Jeudy sits out Thursday    Thu Jun 11, 04:06 PM

Cleveland Browns WR Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, June 11, because of hamstring discomfort, according to head coach Todd Monken.

Footballguys view: It's June, so no big deal here. Jeudy is a speed receiver who can work defenders because of his route-running ability. With two high-profile rookie receivers added (KC Concepcion, Denzel Boston), it dings the fantasy value for Jeudy. We like him as a WR5/deep flex play in 2026.

  Broncos | Bo Nix participates in walkthrough    Thu Jun 11, 02:28 PM

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton told the media on Thursday, June 11, that QB Bo Nix did some walkthrough work and will be out there for some work next week for minicamp.

Footballguys view: Nix is coming off an ankle injury in the Divisional Round against Buffalo that needed two surgeries to correct. He's not doing much this week, but the team plans for him to do a bit more at mandatory minicamp next week. We imagine Nix will be a full participant when training camp opens for the Broncos in late July.

  Texans | David Montgomery seen as a 'three-down back'    Thu Jun 11, 02:05 PM

Houston Texans RB coach Danny Barrett described RB David Montgomery, saying, 'He's a three-down back. He can do it all.'

Footballguys view: Montgomery can do it all. The veteran was traded for in early March, and he should be the lead back for the Texans this year. Woody Marks can provide some juice as a reserve runner and receiver out of the backfield. As a lead back for the Texans, we like Montgomery as an RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs out there.

  Buccaneers | Bucky Irving takes part in OTAs    Thu Jun 11, 01:37 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (shoulder) took part in the team's OTA session on Thursday, June 11.

Footballguys view: He's a player who is coming back from an injury, but Irving is expected to be near full strength for training camp. Irving is a playmaker, but the Buccaneers might use a bit more from Kenneth Gainwell or Sean Tucker in what could be more of an RBBC than Irving's Fantasy GMs want. We see Irving as a low-end RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs in 2026.

  Seahawks | Week 1 possible for Zach Charbonnet?    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) could be ready by Week 1, according to head coach Mike Macdonald, who said 'everything is possible.' Macdonald acknowledged Charbonnet is ahead of schedule.

Footballguys view: Anything is possible (thanks, Kevin Garnett), but what's likely here with Charbonnet? It's likely that he's going to need some time to get back to himself, even if the veteran back is ready for the start of the regular season. Rookie first-round pick Jadarian Price is impressing this offseason and could do most of the heavy lifting in the Seattle backfield - at least to begin the 2026 season.

  Packers | Jordan Love focused on footwork    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love said he spent the offseason working to improve his footwork in the pocket. 'My biggest thing that I've noticed since I got back is just my feet in the pocket, trying to be as smooth and consistent as possible,' Love said. 'When I go through my reads, get into my hitches and not getting antsy, not getting to that point where you're trying to move through the pocket too fast.'

Footballguys view: That's a good place for Love to concentrate on improving his game. A passer's motion begins with proper footwork, so Love should be a better passer with better feet. Earlier this year, Packers HC Matt LaFleur said the team would "strip everything down" on offense in 2026. We like Love as a QB2 with upside in what could be a passing game that's more efficient this season.

  Browns | Denzel Boston making noise    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

Cleveland Browns WR Denzel Boston has been one of the 'standouts' during offseason activities, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com.

Footballguys view: It's easy to see why when considering the physical talent that Boston brings to the field. He's a big-bodied target who can play 'above the rim.' Boston knows how to use his size and strength to box out smaller defenders. He's likely to be the team's no.3 receiver this year, but we love his upside in dynasty formats. With his size and ball skills, Boston produce as a red-zone threat.

  Saints | Hamstring injury for Oscar Delp    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

New Orleans Saints TE Oscar Delp (hamstring) has been dealing with a hamstring injury.

Footballguys view: Delp must have injured his hamstring this offseason. With mandatory minicamp next week, we'll see how much work the Saints give him. Delp is a high-ceiling player who could outproduce what he did in college during his pro career. This year, Delp should serve as a reserve behind TE Juwan Johnson.

  Seahawks | High expectations for Rashid Shaheed    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

Seattle Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed is expected to have bigger role in the offense, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. 'The timing of our plays looks like it should, given the amount of reps that are invested into it,' Macdonald said. 'I'm excited as heck to see where it goes.'

Footballguys view: Shaheed is a weapon on special teams, and he brings that same danger to the offensive side of the ball. We could see him push Cooper Kupp down the depth chart, and Shaheed could easily be the team's no.2 receiver. From a fantasy perspective, Shaheed is a WR5/deep flex in standard-scoring leagues. However, the upside to move into weekly flex territory is there.

  Seahawks | Two tight ends nursing injuries    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

Seattle Seahawks TE Elijah Arroyo (undisclosed) and TE Eric Saubert (undisclosed) have not been practicing during minicamp but are expected to be ready for training camp, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. 'They're just working through some stuff, but it's positive for training camp,' Macdonald said. 'We're just taking care of them right now.'

Footballguys view: Arroyo is the player to watch here. The second-year tight end has the speed to be a weapon in the middle of the field. He's a reserve behind AJ Barner at this time, but we love Arroyo's upside in dynasty formats.

  Seahawks | Jadarian Price's role growing?    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price has played entire drives with the first-team offense during mandatory minicamp.

Footballguys view: Price, a 2026 first-round pick, has reportedly been impressing this offseason. He should be considered the leader in the backfield, although we could see George Holani split time with the rookie early in the season. Zach Charbonnet could be ready sooner than possible, but he's coming back from a knee injury suffered in the playoffs. Let's see if Price can continue to separate himself from Holani in minicamp and training camp.

  Saints | Chris Olave taking it easy    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (illness) has been held out of team drills while he continues to recover from the blood clot that sidelined him at the end of last season, according to head coach Kellen Moore.

Footballguys view: Olave's agent should be working on a new long-term deal with the Saints this offseason. Just over a week ago, Olave told reporters that he feels a contract extension is "going to get done soon." We'll see if something can get done before training camp.

  Seahawks | Tory Horton not on field this week    Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM

Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton (shin) was on the field during the mandatory minicamp this week but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp or the early stages of camp.

Footballguys view: A fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Horton has flashed briefly in the pros. Last year as a rookie, Horton played in eight games and started three games, finishing with 13 catches for 161 yards and five touchdowns. A shin injury cut his season short, and now he's working his way back this offseason. When healthy, Horton can operate as a special teams return man and no.3/no.4 receiver who can thrive near pay dirt.

  49ers | Sincere McCormick back with SF    Wed Jun 10, 05:28 PM

Free-agent RB Sincere McCormick (49ers) signed a one-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers Wednesday, June 10. Financial terms were not disclosed. The team also waived RB Jordan Mims.

Footballguys view: The 49ers spent a third-round pick on Kaelon Black this year. They still have Jordan James as well, last year's fifth-rounder. Two years ago, they spent a fourth-round pick on Isaac Guerendo. Still, they are looking for extra depth. McCormick could end up being nothing but a camp body, but his addition could also signal a potential roster cut for one of the young guys, likely Gurendo, who has done little aside from special teams.

  Bills | Skyler Bell sits out Wednesday    Wed Jun 10, 05:06 PM

Buffalo Bills WR Skyler Bell (leg) did not participate in practice Wednesday, June 10, and had his left leg wrapped.

Footballguys view: Bell was getting some buzz a few days ago, but we'll keep an eye on this leg injury. DJ Moore is the clear top option here. Khalil Shakir will remain heavily involved. But a disappointing start from Keon Coleman could allow for Bell to see the field on three-receiver sets. He's a polished receiver who can be a fun weapon for Josh Allen. He's a name to know as training camp approaches.

  Chiefs | Two years added to Patrick Mahomes' deal    Wed Jun 10, 04:33 PM

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes has agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Chiefs Wednesday, June 10, and is now scheduled to be under contract until the 2033 season and is set to make $504.75 million during that span, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Footballguys view: The Chiefs will do whatever they can to retain Mahomes for as long as they can. He gets a restructured deal seemingly every offseason, as both parties appear aligned on a long-term vision.

  Browns | Deshaun Watson fully healthy     Wed Jun 10, 04:09 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson said he is fully healthy and has not felt this good since 2023.

Footballguys view: We'd feel a lot better if Watson said he felt like his 2020 self, as that's the last time he's played anything better than awful. Although Todd Monken won't declare a QB1, a lot of beat reporters are speculating that Watson has the inside track. In the final year of his deal, he hopes to earn another this year. With a new head coach and a handful of fun, young weapons around him, Watson is worth a cheap flyer in dynasty trades and late-round best ball picks.

  Colts | Jonathan Taylor wants to stay with IND    Wed Jun 10, 03:37 PM

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor said he wants to spend his entire career with the Colts. He is entering the final year of his current contract.

Footballguys view: Most running backs would probably want to spend their career running behind the Colts' line. Going into his age-27 season, Taylor will have a chance to raise his asking price with another strong season. He looked like the best running back in the NFL back in 2021. Since then, injuries and inconsistent play from his team have made his production volatile. But he looked like his old self last year, pushing him back into Round 1 of fantasy drafts.

  Saints | Kendre Miller making progress    Wed Jun 10, 02:59 PM

New Orleans Saints RB Kendre Miller (knee) was able to participate in team drills during the voluntary workout Wednesday, June 10.

Footballguys view: The start of Miller's career has been marred by injuries, and 2025 ended with an ACL tear just as he was stringing together some good outings. After his injury, Devin Neal proved to be a capable back. Then the team signed Travis Etienne Jr. Alvin Kamara is still around as well. Miller would likely need multiple injuries ahead of him to see meaningful playing time at this point. The silver lining, however, is that he was drafted young. He'll likely hit free agency after this season, getting to test the market at 25 years old.

  Panthers | Tetairoa McMillan adds muscle    Wed Jun 10, 02:43 PM

Carolina Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan said he has added 17 pounds of muscle this offseason.

Footballguys view: McMillan wasn't a small guy coming into the league, using his size and strength to overpower receivers on contested balls. His speed has always left a bit to be desired, and size could impact that even more. We'll be watching closely throughout camp and the preseason to see if this extra bulk impacts his movement. Either way, McMillan proved capable of drawing an elite target share last year. He caught contested balls, made plays after the catch, and scored touchdowns, proving his skill set would transfer from college to the pros.

  Packers | Tucker Kraft expects to be ready for opener    Wed Jun 10, 02:39 PM

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) said he expects to be ready for Week 1 and to be able to handle his normal workload.

Footballguys view: Kraft went down in Week 9, so a return in Week 1 isn't out of the question. He's been actively posting his recovery on social media, and looks good. Assuming he's back and healthy this year, Kraft could end up being a great deal in early drafts. At the time of his injury last season, he was the per-game TE1. Our ADP has him going off the board as the TE6.

  Jets | Braelon Allen bulks up    Wed Jun 10, 02:19 PM

New York Jets RB Braelon Allen said he currently weighs 250 pounds, which is up from the 238 to 240 pounds he was at last season.

Footballguys view: Allen was drafted just after his 20th birthday and seems to bulk up every offseason. Last season was cut short by injury, but he's still just 22 years old. Breece Hall's extension puts him an injury away from any meaningful workload, but Allen is a great dynasty stash and late-round best ball target.

  Eagles | No practice for Makai Lemon    Wed Jun 10, 01:42 PM

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) is not participating in practice Wednesday, June 10.

Footballguys view: Lemon's hamstring has been an issue since rookie minicamps started. He and the team would like to see him healthy for the start of training camp. Any time missed during the summer for a rookie can be problematic. Drafters hope to see him back on the field soon, as the first-rounder will have a clear chance to be the team's secondary receiver.

  Eagles | DeVonta Smith excused from practice    Wed Jun 10, 01:37 PM

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith is not participating in practice Wednesday, June 10, because of a personal issue.

Footballguys view: Smith is set up for a career season in the wake of the A.J. Brown trade. Vets taking a day off during voluntary minicamp is usually a non-story. We'll speculate if he's not at mandatory minicamps, but there's no reason to expect that.

  Giants | Thomas Fidone recovering    Wed Jun 10, 01:34 PM

New York Giants TE Thomas Fidone II (foot) recently underwent a procedure on his foot and will hopefully be ready for the start of training camp, according to head coach John Harbaugh.

Footballguys view: Fidone was great at Nebraska, but struggled to find a role as a rookie outside of special teams. It's hard to get too excited about a guy who couldn't crack the offensive rotation as a rookie. But a promising athletic profile and a new coaching staff make him a name to watch during training camp if he can get healthy.

  Patriots | Coach does not expect Stefon Diggs back    Wed Jun 10, 01:12 PM

Free-agent WR Stefon Diggs (Patriots) is unlikely to re-sign with the New England Patriots this offseason, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.

Footballguys view: Diggs is coming off a season with 1,013 receiving yards, despite a part-time role in this offense. He clearly has some left in the tank, but has yet to sign somewhere. With the acquisitions of A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs, Diggs would struggle to find playing time in New England. Diggs is no stranger to new environments, having played with four teams throughout his NFL career. He hopes to sign somewhere before training camp starts so he can get a full acclimation period to learn a new offense.

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara is not participating in the voluntary workouts this week, but head coach Kellen Moore said Kamara is expected to be at the mandatory minicamp.

Green Bay Packers TE Luke Musgrave (undisclosed) suffered an undisclosed injury during practice Tuesday, June 9, and is working on the side at practice Wednesday, June 10.

Footballguys view: Musgrave's big opportunity came last year when Tucker Kraft went down with an ACL tear, but he didn't do much with it. He's already off the radar in best ball and redraft leagues. Any injury setbacks this offseason make it harder to consider rostering him in dynasty leagues.

Cleveland Browns first-round pick WR KC Concepcion signed a four-year, fully guaranteed rookie contract worth $20 million, according to a June 9 report.

A full guaranteed rookie deal means there will be no speed bumps to a full training camp, setting him up to be a potential breakout rookie.

  Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet on field 4 months after surgery    Tue Jun 9, 09:19 PM

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) was on the field doing some light knee exercises on Tuesday, June 9, four months after reconstructive knee surgery for a torn ACL.

Footballguys view: With a surgery date of February 20th, expectations were that Charbonnet would be back late in the season, if at all. If Charbonnet is ahead of schedule, he'll almost surely push for a large workload, just as he did alongside Kenneth Walker. While it's too early to shoot Charbonnet up the rankings, managers expecting a big season from rookie Jadarian Price may be in for a rude awakening.
