Dolphins | Zane Gonzalez placed on IR Mon Aug 10, 04:10 PM
Miami Dolphins PK Zane Gonzalez (undisclosed) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Gonzalez has been competing with Riley Patterson, who was excellent for the Dolphins last year, making 93% of his field goals - a franchise record. As Footballguy Sigmund Bloom noted this week, Gonzalez has been the more accurate kicker to date in camp, but there's no reason to believe the Dolphins won't be comfortable rolling with Patterson again this fall. Gonzales, meanwhile, will miss the entire season unless the Dolphins release him. |

Broncos | Bo Nix unsure about preseason game Mon Aug 10, 03:26 PM
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix said he is not sure if he will play in the first preseason game.
| Footballguys view: With Nix coming off ankle surgery and having a history of ankle injuries, a cautious approach to exhibition action makes sense. As USA Today suggested, if Nix stays healthy, the Broncos could make another deep playoff run this season. To play at his best, though, the QB will continue to make plays with his legs, and his ability to avoid hits and stay on the field will be a key storyline going into the 2026 campaign. |
Dolphins | Greg Dulcich takes part in practice Mon Aug 10, 03:26 PM
Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich (hand) fully participated in practice Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Dulcich has been working in a red no-contact jersey. He's dealing with a right hand or finger injury that was reportedly heavily taped, so his return to full-contact work is encouraging. Once healthy, Dulcich is expected to operate as the top receiving tight end in a new-look Dolphins offense that lacks an established pecking order among its pass catchers. |
Broncos | J.K. Dobbins leaves early Mon Aug 10, 02:34 PM
Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (undisclosed) left practice early Monday, Aug. 10, because of an undisclosed reason.
| Footballguys view: Dobbins jogged off the field into the locker room with trainers during Monday's training camp practice. Dobbins left about midway through practice and did not return, according to reporters on site. Broncos coach Sean Payton was asked about Dobbins after practice. "Soft tissue; I think he's going to be fine," Payton said. "We're just being smart with it." We'll watch for more, but Dobbins' practice participation could be impacted ahead of Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons. |

Broncos | Limited practice for Marvin Mims Mon Aug 10, 02:29 PM
Denver Broncos WR Marvin Mims (undisclosed) was limited during practice Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Mims pulled up in discomfort while running a route on Friday, but he was on the field in pads Monday, working on the side. He appears to be on track to return soon. |
Broncos | Jaylen Waddle not on field Monday Mon Aug 10, 02:22 PM
Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (leg) is not participating in practice Monday, Aug. 10.
| Footballguys view: Waddle left last Wednesday's practice with muscle tightness. Waddle is expected to be fine going forward, but the Broncos are clearly playing it safe. He was on the field for Monday's session, getting in mental reps and doing light running on the side. |

49ers | No practice for Christian McCaffrey Mon Aug 10, 02:03 PM
San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (undisclosed) is not participating in practice Monday, Aug. 10, because of tightness.
| Footballguys view: Monday's practice is the first one the 30-year-old RB has missed in this year's camp. As USA Today's Kyle Madson suggested, given McCaffrey's importance to the 49ers, it's not a huge surprise they'd be cautious with any issue he's having. Even general tightness isn't worth pushing on Aug. 10 with a joint practice against the Tennessee Titans looming Tuesday. It's unclear whether McCaffrey will be ready in time to participate in that joint session. We'll follow up, but there's nothing to indicate McCaffrey will be out for any prolonged period. |

Browns | Denzel Boston to work with starters Mon Aug 10, 01:12 PM
Cleveland Browns WR Denzel Boston will start working with the first-team offense during training camp, according to head coach Todd Monken.
| Footballguys view: Akron Beacon Journal beat writer Chris Easterling told us late last month that Boston was arguably the offseason MVP for Cleveland's offense. Given his size and physical style of play, Easterling believes Boston could emerge as more than a threat in the red zone; he might also draw the most targets and catch more passes than the rest of the team's wideouts. KC Concepcion, as WR51, is currently the first Browns receiver off the board, in the 11th round. Boston is WR60, available in Round 13. The team's quarterback will be a factor here, but Boston's drumbeat is getting louder. |

Link to story Lions | Isiah Pacheco has sprained MCL Mon Aug 10, 11:40 AM
Detroit Lions RB Isiah Pacheco (knee) suffered a sprained medial collateral ligament.
| Footballguys view: Head coach Dan Campbell suggested Pacheco will miss some time. Campbell said he expects Pacheco to return before Detroit's Week 1 home contest against the New Orleans Saints and that he's "not concerned" about the injury. Expect Pacheco to remain the top backup to Jahmyr Gibbs. Pacheco's primary competition for snaps behind Gibbs, Sione Vaki, is currently sidelined by a broken nose. |
Patriots | Hunter Henry extended Mon Aug 10, 09:46 AM
New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry signed a two-year, $16 million extension Monday, Aug. 10. The deal is worth up to $20 million and includes $14.5 million guaranteed and a $4.2 million signing bonus.
| Footballguys view: Henry has been one of quarterback Drake Maye's go-to targets in critical situations. Henry has logged 40-plus receptions in each of his five seasons with the Patriots, which is the second-longest streak by a Patriots tight end all time behind Ben Coates' six. He is coming off a 2025 season in which he totaled a career-high 768 receiving yards and enters this year third on the franchise's all-time list for receptions among tight ends (259). Henry, who finished 2025 as TE9, is being drafted as TE19. |

Colts | Daniel Jones unlikely to play Thursday Mon Aug 10, 01:11 AM
Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones is expected to practice in a joint session with the New England Patriots on Tuesday, Aug. 11, but he is not expected to play in the preseason game Thursday, Aug. 13.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy investors shouldn't read anything into this. According to The Athletic's James Boyd, the 29-year-old signal caller has looked about as healthy as anyone could have hoped, considering he's only eight months removed from undergoing surgery to repair a torn right Achilles tendon. Boyd added that Jones has been sharp in camp, with his accuracy and velocity turning heads, but it's his mobility that's really stood out. He's taken off on a handful of scrambles, and it's impossible to tell he was ever injured. Boyd's reporting mirrors what we've heard from others, yet Jones is still going as QB24. |

Buccaneers | Chris Godwin returning to form? Mon Aug 10, 12:58 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin is 'a lot healthier right now' than he has been in recent years, according to head coach Todd Bowles. 'He is still a playmaker for us, and he makes big plays in the passing and blocking game,' Bowles said. 'He is peaking at the right time.'
| Footballguys view: In addition to being healthy, ESPN's Jenna Laine reports that Godwin has looked "energized: throughout practices, and we've seen him show some versatility in lining up all over the formation. According to Footballguy Matt Waldman, Godwin will likely be Baker Mayfield's favorite red-zone target and contend for the team lead in touchdowns. Waldman added, "The danger of a decline is near," but at Godwin's price -- he's WR40 -- the risk isn't great. |

Ravens | Tyler Loop locked in Mon Aug 10, 12:55 AM
Baltimore Ravens PK Tyler Loop made all eight of his field goal attempts during practice Sunday, Aug. 9, including three kicks from 50-plus yards.
| Footballguys view: As Footballguy Sigmund Bloom noted, Loop had a great rookie year after the team drafted him in the sixth round to replace longtime kicker Justin Tucker, but he missed a kick to win the AFC North and send the team to the playoffs against the Steelers. So there was some question about how he would respond in 2026. So far, so good. There are no signs that Loop's confidence has been permanently shaken. |
Bills | Skyler Bell might struggle to routinely play Mon Aug 10, 12:55 AM
Buffalo Bills WR Skyler Bell has shown good separation skills and releases at the line during scrimmages. However, Bell's ball skills have held him back, and he appears to be behind the top four WRs DJ Moore, Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer at this point.
| Footballguys view: While Bell is expected to be a roster lock, his game-day role is expected to be determined by how he finishes through the team's three preseason games. Especially if the Bills keep Mecole Hardman as a sixth receiver and their primary punt returner, the Athletic's Joe Buscaglia contends it wouldn't be stunning if Bell begins the regular season as a healthy scratch. |
Colts | Nick Westbrook-Ikhine battling for WR3 job Mon Aug 10, 12:50 AM
Indianapolis Colts WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has been having a great training camp, and he has strengthened his case to be the team's third receiver behind WRs Josh Downs and Alec Pierce.
| Footballguys view: While veterans Ashton Dulin and Laquon Treadwell have made a few plays, neither has been as consistent as Westbrook-Ikhine. According to The Athletic's James Boyd, the 29-year-old always seems to be in the right place at the right time, and the chemistry he's building with Daniel Jones is easy to notice. Westbrook-Ikhine is coming off a down year with the Miami Dolphins (11 receptions, 89 yards in 15 games). However, he totaled 32 catches for 497 yards and nine touchdowns with the Tennessee Titans in 2024, and so far, he's showing he's still capable of being a quality contributor. |

Indianapolis Colts RB DJ Giddens (hamstring) has been sidelined with a hamstring injury, allowing rookie RB Seth McGowan to take first- and second-team reps. Giddens has also dropped a few passes in training camp when he has been on the field. RB Ulysses Bentley IV has also made a push for the third job, putting additional pressure on Giddens.

Indianapolis Colts PK Blake Grupe has made 27 of his 30 field-goal attempts during training camp so far, while PK Spencer Shrader has misfired on 10 of his 30 tries. The two are battling in training camp and the preseason for the starting placekicker job.
Link to story Colts | Seth McGowan has carved out role Sun Aug 9, 05:06 PM
Indianapolis Colts RB Seth McGowan has emerged as the top running back behind RB Jonathan Taylor, as the team likes his bruising running style and soft hands out of the backfield. If he wants to carve out a consistent role, he needs to improve in pass protection.

Lions | Veteran backup Josh Dobbs added Sun Aug 9, 03:41 PM
Free-agent QB Josh Dobbs (Patriots) signed a one-year, $1.425 million deal Sunday, Aug. 9, with $475,000 fully guaranteed, national beat writers Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport reported. The team moved quickly to add Dobbs after QB Teddy Bridgewater surprisingly elected to retire Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Dobbs has experience under Lions offensive coordinator Drew Petzing when they were together in Arizona, so this should be a smooth transition in the wake of Bridgewater's unforeseen decision to retire. |
Lions | Several roster moves made Sunday Sun Aug 9, 03:32 PM
Detroit Lions QB Teddy Bridgewater was placed on the reserve/retired list Sunday, Aug. 9, and TE Nick Muse was waived. The team signed CB Ryan Cooper and LB Amen Ogbongbemiga.

49ers | De'Zhaun Stribling back on the field Sun Aug 9, 03:01 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling (hamstring) was back at practice Saturday, Aug. 8, and he was able to catch balls from multiple quarterbacks on multiple routes, making several splash plays. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Stribling has been picking things up in a hurry.
| Footballguys view: Finally some good news about a 49ers injury situation. With Ricky Pearsall already on the shelf for the year and veterans Christian Kirk and Mike Evans dealing with injuries, Stribling has a clear path to playing time right away. He should be on your late round target list. |
