  49ers | Khalil Herbert signed     Sun Aug 2, 04:30 PM

Free-agent RB Khalil Herbert (Jets) signed with the San Francisco 49ers Sunday, Aug. 2. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Herbert could be getting snaps as the backup to Christian McCaffrey right away, as all three of the players behind him - Isaac Guerendo, Jordan James, and Kaelon Black - are dealing with injuries.

  Eagles | Dontayvion Wicks making plays    Sun Aug 2, 04:17 PM

Philadelphia Eagles WR Dontayvion Wicks had 'another quality practice' on Saturday, Aug. 1, according to Tim McManus of ESPN.com.

Footballguys view: Wicks should get first shot to replace AJ Brown at X receiver. He flashed earlier in his career with the Packers, but inconsistent hands and injuries slowed his development before the Eagles traded for him earlier in the offseason. He should be on our waiver wire watch list, although first round pick Makai Lemon should also have a sizeable role in the passing game and could steal Wicks opportunity if he shows he can hang with NFL corners outside of the slot.

  49ers | Kaelon Black leaves practice    Sun Aug 2, 04:17 PM

San Francisco 49ers BR Kaelon Black (undisclosed) did not finish practice Saturday, Aug. 1.

Footballguys view: Jordan James is out for a few weeks with a broken rib and Isaac Guerendo is on the PUP while he recovers from a torn pec he suffered lifting weights about three months ago. The return of Deebo Samuel helps the backfield depth to an extent, but the 49ers felt the need to sign a running back today - Khalil Herbert, who was once flirting with fantasy relevance during his time with the Bears.

  Bears | Zavion Thomas soaking up knowledge    Sun Aug 2, 04:17 PM

Chicago Bears WR Zavion Thomas said he has been leaning on QB Tyson Bagent for advice. 'Every time I have a question before practice or after practice, I go to him,' Thomas said.

Footballguys view: Thomas was also seen getting chewed out by head coach Ben Johnson during a practice. Johnson is strict, which is part of the reason Luther Burden and Colston Loveland had to work up to their roles at the end of the season. We shouldn't expect a big impact from Thomas early on. In fact, if he does pop before Halloween, that's a great sign for his future and how much he can help add a dimension to this ascendant offense.

  Cardinals | Tyler Allgeier listed as starter for now    Sun Aug 2, 02:17 PM

Arizona Cardinals RB Tyler Allgeier is listed as the starting running back on the team's first unofficial depth chart.

Footballguys view: No surprise here as the Cardinals signed Allgeier to a two year, $12.25 million deal this offseason. Allgeier was a thorn in the side of Bijan Robinson fantasy teams during Robinson's rookie year after the Falcons took him in the top ten, and he is set to do that again to Jeremiyah Love, although Love is going a full round or more after Robinson - who had a late first round ADP - did in fantasy drafts when he was a rookie. If Love is going to hit this year, it's going to have to be with his passing game and big play contributions, because Allgeier isn't going away, and short yardage running is one of his strengths.

  Bills | RBs more involved in passing game    Sun Aug 2, 01:34 PM

Buffalo Bills RBs James Cook, Ty Johnson and Ray Davis have been noticeably more involved in the passing game during the early part of training camp, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Alaina Getzenberg.

Footballguys view: We have heard a steady drumbeat about James Cook being more involved as a receiver this year after the team hired Pete Carmichael as offensive coordinator. Carmichael was one of the architects of Alvin Kamara's big seasons as a receiving running back in New Orleans. Cook has proven that he can put up RB1 numbers on the strength of his touchdown upside in 2024, and his rushing title winning productivity as a runner last year. We still haven't seen what he can with more work in the passing game, and Cook was drafted by the Bills in the 2022 second round in part because of his receiving skills. It's reasonable to take him in the second half of the first round, and maybe even ahead of Jonathan Taylor.

  Jaguars | Chris Rodriguez more involved in practice    Sun Aug 2, 01:15 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. (foot) received a few snaps during team drills Sunday, Aug. 2, for the first time since the start of training camp. He is being eased back into practice since he had offseason foot surgery.

Footballguys view: Bhayshul Tuten has done everything he can to show the Jaguars that he can be a true lead back while Rodriguez has been on the mend from offseason foot surgery. Tuten's ADP should be going up and Rodriguez's down knowing that Rodriguez won't have much of a chance to answer Tuten's performance this summer. The good news for Rodriguez is that head coach Liam Coen has basically said that he knows what Rodriguez can do from their time together at the University of Kentucky. There's room for both backs to be hits at ADP if the Jaguars running game gets on track this year.

  Packers | Tucker Kraft possible for joint practice    Sun Aug 2, 01:13 PM

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) has a chance to participate in the joint practice with the Arizona Cardinals later this month if he does not suffer any setbacks, according to head coach Matt LaFleur.

Footballguys view: In other words, don't expect to see Kraft do a lot this summer even though he should be ready for the season opener at Minnesota. It will take a bit of a leap of faith to start him in his first game coming off of ACL surgery, so if you're not comfortable with that, pay close attention to your other tight end's Week 1 matchup to manage the early season risk in Kraft's fantasy profile.

  Patriots | Kyle Williams returns kicks    Sat Aug 1, 05:37 PM

New England Patriots WR Kyle Williams worked as the top kickoff returner Friday, July 31.

Footballguys view: There were high hopes for Williams after the Patriots took him in the third round last year. He did make a few big plays with his speed, but the team traded for AJ Brown and signed Romeo Doubs this offseason. Williams could be battling 2025 UDFA Efton Chism III for a roster spot and needs to show growth on offense and value on special teams.

  Dolphins | Caleb Douglas standing out    Sat Aug 1, 05:37 PM

Miami Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas has been stringing together solid practices during training camp and had his 'best day' thus far on Friday, July 31, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com

Footballguys view: Douglas was taken in the third round by the Dolphins even though many had him rated as a late third day pick. He is a speedy, long-framed receiver and the team believes he can do more than he was asked to do at Texas Tech. With fellow third round receiver Chris Bell still recovering ACL surgery, Douglas has a chance to seize a starting role in this almost completely unsettled WR depth chart.

  Broncos | Denver to explore bringing in Taysom Hill?    Sat Aug 1, 02:55 PM

Free-agent TE Taysom Hill (Saints) has reportedly been a topic of interest by the Denver Broncos and according to HC Sean Payton on Saturday, Aug. 1, the Broncos will explore bringing him to Denver.

Footballguys view: This was predictable after Hill said goodbye to the Saints fanbase earlier this week. His days of having fantasy relevance are probably over, but if Hill joins the Broncos, an already three-headed backfield will become more complicated to project for the upcoming season.

San Francisco 49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling (hamstring) was held out of today's training camp practice due to hamstring tightness, according to a source on Saturday, Aug. 1.

Footballguys view: Stribling had a few great days to open camp while two of his wide receiver teammates got hurt. He was building momentum to occupy a large role - even with Deebo Samuel signing this week - but needs to manage this hamstring issue well this summer for that to happen in Week 1 against the Rams in Australia.

Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy reportedly left Saturday's practice with a shoulder issue, but onlookers reported that Worthy didn't seem distressed as he left, according to a source on Saturday, Aug. 1.

Footballguys view: It was the shoulder he injured in Week 1 last year when he ran into Travis Kelce and then had surgically repaired in the offseason, but there have been multiple reports that Worthy is ok, so we should probably file this away as a false alarm.

  Chiefs | Cyrus Allen carted off field Saturday    Sat Aug 1, 11:19 AM

Kansas City Chiefs WR Cyrus Allen (knee) was carted off the field Saturday, Aug. 1, after sustaining an apparent left knee injury during practice. The injury occurred when Allen collided with CB Kaiir Elam on a special teams punt rep.

Footballguys view: The injury was just a shin bruise thankfully, but it does slow down one of the loudest rookie hype trains of the summer. Allen had been making spectacular catches almost every day and getting run with the first team while Rashee Rice is still rounding into shape after serving a 30-day jail term right after getting minor knee surgery in May. If Allen returns to practice soon, we'll have to keep him on our late round sleeper list.

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.
