Rams | Demarcus Robinson draws praise from teammate Fri Jul 26, 03:23 PM
Los Angeles Rams WR Demarcus Robinson boasts an 'unreal' movement pattern and 'can go out there and run every route,' according to teammate Puka Nacua.'The movement pattern he has, I think, is unreal. The energy that he has is something that we thrive off in the receiver room. He can go out there and run every route. Being the 'X' receiver, he's kind of on the back side solo. He has a lot of opportunities to run some of those 'X' receiver routes, but the versatility that he has to run the short game, intermediate game, and especially to go out there and run the deep ball. That's what we saw him do last year,' Nacua said.

Titans | Tyler Boyd building chemistry with QB Fri Jul 26, 01:07 PM
Tennessee Titans WR Tyler Boyd appears to have developed a good connection with QB Will Levis during the early part of training camp, in the opinion of TennesseeTitans.com's Jim Wyatt.
| Footballguys view: Boyd probably won't be fantasy relevant in redraft leagues, but he could be an important part of this pass offense and lower the target volume and ceiling of Calvin Ridley and DeAndre Hopkins. He will be running shorter, quick opening routes from the slot, which should help establish confidence for Levis. |

Bengals | No injury for Ja'Marr Chase Fri Jul 26, 01:07 PM
Updating a previous report, Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase's absence from practice Thursday, July 25, was not injury related, according to head coach Zak Taylor. Chase would not say if his absence from practice was related to his contract situation.
| Footballguys view: This confirms something we basically already knew. Part of the reason the Bengals didn't sign Tee Higgins to a long term deal is because Chase is also due for a deal and more essential to the team's success. This situation is much farther from escalating than the CeeDee Lamb holdout, but we'll be monitoring in case there are any changes and hoping the Bengals and Chase can figure something out soon. In the meantime, players like 2023 sixth round pick Andrei Iosivas and 2024 third rounder Jermaine Burton will get more reps with Joe Burrow and the ones. |

Jets | Xavier Gipson out a week or two Fri Jul 26, 11:20 AM
New York Jets WR Xavier Gipson (lower body) will miss a week or two due to an unspecified lower body injury, according to sources Friday, July 26.
| Footballguys view: Gipson is set as the team's #3 receiver and top slot receiver, so this should give third round pick Malachi Corley a chance to show what he can do. Garrett Wilson and free agent signing Mike Williams (currently on the PUP recovering from a torn ACL) are the starters. |
Chargers | Quentin Johnston making a good impression Fri Jul 26, 09:34 AM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston 'is going to be problem for people,' according to head coach Jim Harbaugh.'I just think he got a bad rap. I look at some of the clips coming out of training camp last year. Whatever it was, it just seemed like in somebody's mind he was a disappointment. He hasn't been that at all in my eyes. I see big, fast, strong, getting stronger. I think that's a piece that's really been addressed in the offseason with coach (Ben) Herbert. And Quentin, just getting stronger to go with that. With that speed, the agility, his ability to catch the ball, he plucks it out of the air. He's as good as anybody doing it. But then combining that speed and agility, getting that strength component to go along with it, he's going to be a problem. He's going to be a problem for people,' Harbaugh said about Johnston.
| Footballguys view: Johnston is still playing behind free agent D.J. Chark to open camp, and he is a work in progress as an outside receiver, so don't overreact to this in redraft leagues. If you're holding Johnston in dynasty, it is encouraging to hear positive words from a new head coach when Johnston's selection came during the previous regime. |
Giants | Malik Nabers to be the focal point offensively? Fri Jul 26, 01:29 AM
New York Giants WR Malik Nabers was targeted four times and carried the ball once in 20 plays run by the first-team offense on Thursday, July 25, per ESPN's Jordan Raanan, who opined it's possible that Nabers could see 150 targets as New York's No. 1 receiver.
| Footballguys view: It would be more surprising if the Giants didn't make Nabers the focal point of the offense. Whether he pays off on the third round pick it costs to get him in redraft and best ball leagues depends on the quality of play from him and more importantly Daniel Jones, along with a rebuilt Giants offensive line that failed Jones and the other quarterbacks so often last season. |
Chargers | Ladd McConkey working with the starters Fri Jul 26, 01:14 AM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey was one of the three receivers for starter-on-starter reps on Thursday, July 25, joining WRs Joshua Palmer and DJ Chark Jr.
| Footballguys view: McConkey has generated positive buzz from day one, and there's a real chance that he's Justin Herbert's favorite wide receiver right away. He's worth the 6th/7th round pick it would take to get him in best ball and redraft leagues right now. |

Steelers | Pittsburgh not actively seeking WR help Thu Jul 25, 03:07 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WRs Roman Wilson, Van Jefferson and Calvin Austin are not expected to face any outside competition for the time being, according to comments made by general manager Omar Khan on Thursday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: The Steelers have some interesting options when it comes to depth in the wide receiver room. Jefferson is a solid veteran, and Austin has some intriguing athletic ability. Wilson has some Hines Ward to his game and is tough to bring down after the catch. Let's see how these guys can perform in training camp and the preseason. |

Cincinnati Bengals WR Andrei Iosivas opened training camp in the slot and took every snap there on the first day of practice, according to Jay Morrison of Pro Football Network.

Broncos | Courtland Sutton restructures Thu Jul 25, 11:10 AM
Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton agreed to a restructured contract that can pay him up to $15.2 million in 2024, including $1.5 million in new incentives, according to sources Thursday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: Sutton wanted a raise, but the Broncos did not cave to his demands. Instead, they give him incentives they will be happy to pay if Sutton plays up to his potential. The Sean Payton offense should look better this year, and Sutton should become a favorite target of QB Bo Nix (and QB Jarrett Stidham if he begin the season as the starter). |

Jets | Allen Lazard looking to rebound Thu Jul 25, 01:51 AM
New York Jets WR Allen Lazard was among the standouts during the team's first practice, in the opinion of ESPN's Rich Cimini, who points out that Lazard will get a lot of time working with the starters due to WR Mike Williams (knee) being on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list. Cimini also notes that some in the organization believe Lazard lost confidence a year ago, and a strong camp could do a lot to rebuild that.
| Footballguys view: Lazard has talent, but his game is inconsistent. With better quarterback play, so long as Aaron Rodgers can stay healthy, that should help Lazard greatly. He's competing to establish a pecking order behind Garrett Wilson and Mike Williams. |
Lions | Jameson Williams thriving Thu Jul 25, 01:51 AM
Detroit Lions WR Jameson Williams was 'one of the most impressive players on the field' during practice Wednesday, July 24, according to Jeff Seidel of the Detroit Free Press.
| Footballguys view: Williams has an impressive skill set, and we're looking forward to his continued growth in the NFL. If healthy, we could see Williams snaring around 45-50 passes this season. That makes him worth a late-round flier in fantasy leagues. |

Rams | Tutu Atwell excited to return kicks Wed Jul 24, 11:38 AM
Los Angeles Rams WR Tutu Atwell believes he will be the team's primary kick returner in 2024, although the team has yet to determine who will begin the season with the job.'Yeah, no doubt. I'm going to be back there this year. We're going to see some Tutu at kick return. When I found out about the new rule, I was like, 'Man, dang. Knowing you got guys coming down full speed but they've got to wait until I catch the ball, it's going to be dangerous. I'll take a chance at that this year,' Atwell said.
| Footballguys view: Atwell provides more fantasy value in leagues that reward return yardage points. He's tough to bring down in the open field because of his speed and quickness. In most leagues, Atwell will be left on the waiver wire as he's the Rams' no.4 wide receiver. |

49ers | Ricky Pearsall expected back soon Wed Jul 24, 11:38 AM
San Francisco 49ers WR Ricky Pearsall (hamstring) is expected to be cleared for practice soon after their off day Sunday, July 28.

However, he's missed time this offseason due to hamstring problems and now is out of action due to illness. We are quite a way from the start of the regular season, but Worthy is a player we're excited about - when he's healthy. |
