Philadelphia Eagles CB Adoree' Jackson was spotted warming up with the starting cornerbacks during practice Sunday, Aug. 31, while other players at the position were participating in special teams drills.

Dallas Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs (knee) said Sunday, Aug. 31, that he did everything in practice without any limitations. He would not commit to playing in Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles, however, saying it would depend on how his knee feels, but he didn't rule out the opener, either.

Link to storyUpdating a previous report, Baltimore Ravens CB Bilhal Kone (knee) has already undergone procedures to repair a torn medial collateral ligament, a torn anterior cruciate ligament and lateral meniscus damage, according to multiple sources. All of the procedures were performed by Dallas Cowboys team physician Dr. Dan Cooper and Kone is expected to need 10 to 12 months to fully recover, barring setbacks.
Link to storyNew England Patriots CB Christian Gonzalez's (hamstring) conditioning could prevent him from being ready for the season opener, according to head coach Mike Vrabel. 'In my own personal experience, you can only ride the bike so long or do the stair climber or something,' Vrabel said. 'You actually have to come out here, put pads on, run and get into football conditioning.'
Footballguys view: The Raiders are coming to Foxboro for the season opener. This could help Geno Smith, Dont'e Thornton and Jakobi Meyers get off to a good start. The Patriots depth behind Gonzalez is largely untested. Jeff Howe of The Athletic wrote that it is "tough to pin down a timetable on his return". |

Miami Dolphins CB Cam Smith (illness) was placed on the Reserve/Non-Football Illness list Thursday, Aug. 28.
Footballguys view: Smith was a 2023 second round pick. He has failed to develop under two different defensive coordinators and was beat out by Storm Duck this summer. He's probably on the roster bubble. The Dolphins secondary was completely overhauled this offseason and they added JuJu Brents and Rasul Douglas in recent days as an admission that the current group isn't going to get it done. Daniel Jones and the Colts passing game could start hot vs. Miami next week. |

Cleveland Browns CB Denzel Ward Jr. (shoulder) did not play in the preseason finale, as expected, but the team is hopeful he'll be ready for the Week 1 game against the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday, Sept. 7.
Footballguys view: If Ward isn't ready for Week 1, the Browns defense will be without their best corner against one of the most prolific passing games in the league. We'll be monitoring this and reflecting it in our Week 1 projections. |

Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said he believes CB Trevon Diggs (knee) will be on the 53-man roster to start the season and hopes Diggs will be able to do some things during practice next week.
Footballguys view: We should expect Diggs to be sidelined for at least the season opener against the Eagles, which will upgrade Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown, and DeVonta Smith for that matchup. The Cowboys draw the Giants, Bears and Packers in Weeks 2-4. |
