Cardinals | Jacob Brissett expected to be at start of camp Wed Jul 22, 02:50 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett should be in attendance at the start of training camp for the team, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
| Footballguys view: Brissett will presumably be in attendance, but CBSSports.com suggests the veteran quarterback could still stage a "hold-in" due to his ongoing contract dispute. Per Rapoport, the Cardinals agree that a raise would be warranted for Brissett, but the two sides have not yet been able to come to terms on an exact figure. |

Cardinals | Carson Beck signs rookie deal Wed Jul 22, 02:08 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Carson Beck signed his rookie contract for four years and $7.4 million on Wednesday, July 22.
| Footballguys view: Beck was drafted in the third round (pick No. 65) in this year's draft. The 24-year-old rookie is expected to battle with Gardner Minshew for the backup job behind starter Jacoby Brissett -- assuming Brissett gets the contract he's after before the season starts. |
Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet placed on PUP list Wed Jul 22, 01:27 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet was placed on the PUP list on Wednesday, July 22, ahead of training camp.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet can be activated from the list at any point in camp, but the timing of the injury means that it will likely be some time before the team will be moving him to the active roster. Charbonnet ran 184 times for 730 yards and 12 touchdowns last season. First-round pick Jadarian Price, George Holani, Emanuel Wilson, Velus Jones, and Jacardia Wright are the healthy options at running back in Seattle. |

Cardinals | Jacoby Brissett in talks for pay raise Wed Jul 22, 12:16 AM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett is in talks with the team on a pay raise, according to a report from NFL Network on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: "My understanding of the situation is the Arizona Cardinals are in agreement that Jacoby Brissett deserves more money," NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said. "The two sides have been negotiating for several months. They have not yet agreed on a number, but they do believe he is due a new deal and deserves one." Even though talks have been at a standstill, teammates clearly view Brissett as the starting quarterback. Carson Beck and Gardner Minshew are standing by, but Brissett took this offense to new heights last year, and fantasy managers should hope he ends up as the Week 1 starter. |

Lions | Sam LaPorta fully cleared for training camp Wed Jul 22, 12:09 AM
Detroit Lions TE Sam LaPorta (herniated disc) was reportedly cleared in full for training camp but is expected to be full go, according to a source on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: LaPorta has settled in as one of the league's top tight ends. His TE1 season as a rookie defied history when it came to first-year tight ends as fantasy producers. But he's slowed down since, pulling in a combined 100 passes for 1,215 yards and 10 touchdowns in 25 games over the past two seasons. Nonetheless, he was on track for a third straight top-10 finish at his position last year, and he finished seventh in points per game. LaPorta is being drafted as TE8. |

Raiders | LV will 'sprinkle' first-team reps for Fernando Mendoza in camp Wed Jul 22, 12:08 AM
Las Vegas Raiders QB Fernando Mendoza will reportedly receive some first-team reps at quarterback during training camp, according to a source on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: As SI.com's Albert Breer noted, Mendoza got about six weeks of work in the spring as a ramp-up to camp, and that time was spent largely on fundamentals. New head coach Klint Kubiak had Mendoza start a detailed progression in learning the scheme's footwork. The Raiders also drilled him on working from under center, something he didn't do much in college. Kirk Cousins handled most of the first-team reps. A report this week suggested the Raiders would prefer Cousins to start all year, although Mendoza could take over at some point if he picks things up quickly. |
Patriots | NE places two on PUP list to begin training camp Tue Jul 21, 05:29 PM
New England Patriots TE CJ Dippre and LB Harold Landry were placed on the active/physically unable to perform (PUP) list, according to a source on Tuesday, July 21. This means they are not yet cleared for practice, but can be activated at any time.

Patriots | NFI list for Terrell Jennings to start camp Tue Jul 21, 05:26 PM
New England Patriots RB Terrell Jennings will start training camp on the Active/Non-Football Injury list, according to a source on Tuesday, July 21. This means a player is not cleared for practice but can be activated at any time.
Link to story Raiders | Mike Washington 'occasionally' received first-team reps at OTAs Tue Jul 21, 04:58 PM
Las Vegas Raiders RB Mike Washington Jr. reportedly received occasional first-team reps at running back during the Raiders' offseason training program, according to a source on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: According to McFadden, Washington has the potential to grow into a second option in the backfield, as he has a nice blend of size and speed. At Arkansas, he rushed for 1,070 yards, with 606 yards coming after first contact, and eight touchdowns. Washington also totaled 28 catches for 226 yards and a touchdown. HC Klint Kubiak expects Ashton Jeanty to have a heavy workload, but that shouldn't take away from Washington playing meaningful snaps. |
Broncos | 'A surprise' if Evan Engram earns more snaps than Adam Trautman in 2026 Tue Jul 21, 04:42 PM
Denver Broncos TE Evan Engram earned 40% of snaps last season, compared to 57% for fellow TE Adam Trautman, and it would be a surprise if Engram earned more time on the field than Trautman in 2026, in the opinion of Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: As Footballguy Matt Waldman notes, Engram was third in targets last year, but he only scored once. And unless he generates 90-100 targets or 8-10 scores, don't expect a return to starting fantasy TE status in most formats. The timeshare with Trautman makes those numbers unlikely. |

Vikings | 'Right up to the start of the season' for starting QB competition? Tue Jul 21, 04:22 PM
Minnesota Vikings QBs Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy's competition to win the starting quarterback job this season could go right up to the start of the season, in the opinion of Ian Rapoport of NFL Network on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: When Murray signed with the Vikings, the thinking was that he had the inside track to be the starter. All signs had pointed in that direction, even as he spent the offseason splitting reps with incumbent starter J.J. McCarthy as part of an open competition. But public accounts of the team's final minicamp sessions created the impression that McCarthy was making strides and Murray was struggling. While that obviously creates intrigue as training camp opens, multiple observers have told us that if the season were starting today, Murray would likely be the starter. We'll see if McCarthy can change that. |

Commanders | Treylon Burks likely to make team Tue Jul 21, 02:39 PM
Washington Commanders WR Treylon Burks is not guaranteed a roster spot but is likely to make the 53-man roster, in the opinion of CommandersWire's Bryan Manning.
| Footballguys view: The Commanders have not added a veteran free-agent receiver this summer, despite the clear need for a No. 2 receiver opposite Terry McLaurin. That doesn't mean they won't sign someone like Stefon Diggs off the street, but unless and until they do, Burks should benefit from increased opportunities in camp. As SBNation noted, this is a prove-it year for a 26-year-old who has flashed but never established himself as a steady threat. Injuries have been the biggest roadblock for a player who hasn't exceeded 444 receiving yards in a season. We'll be watching for more over the next month. |
Broncos | Bo Nix to be cleared when training camp opens? Tue Jul 21, 01:02 AM
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix (ankle) could be 100% cleared when camp opens, which is consistent with Nix's messaging over the last month about his injury, in the opinion of The Denver Post's Troy Renck on Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: Nix enters his third NFL season after finishing inside the top-10 at the position (with QB8 and QB9 outcomes) during each of his first two campaigns. He was a very limited participant during the Broncos' offseason program while recovering from the two procedures he had on his ankle. But Nix has shown consistent progress and even been deemed ahead of schedule. The Broncos have insisted the third-year man will be ready, and Nix continues to show signs they were right. |
Packers | Tucker Kraft contract extension next? Tue Jul 21, 01:01 AM
Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft is entering the final season of his contract and the Packers hope to get an extension done with him, in the opinion of Jordan Schultz on Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: NFL insider Ian Rapoport also reported that Kraft is the Packers' top priority for an extension before the season begins. Kraft is currently slated to make $3.624 million in base salary with a $3.93 million cap hit after triggering the proven performance escalator. That's a bargain for a tight end of his caliber, and both sides know it. Kraft is recovering from a torn ACL, which could impact negotiations, but Green Bay already locked up Sean Rhyan, Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, Devonte Wyatt, and Isaiah McDuffie. Kraft is the obvious next domino to fall. |

Buccaneers | Bucky Irving 'good to go' for training camp Tue Jul 21, 12:59 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving said he is 'good to go' for training camp at his youth football camp, according to a source on Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: Irving returned to the Bucs practice fields on the final day of OTAs, the first time he hit the field since shoulder surgery earlier this year. That's good news for Irving, who'll face competition for snaps from free-agent addition Kenny Gainwell. Irving is being drafted as RB21 in early Round 5. Gainwell is RB34 going in Round 8. Irving's ADP reflects last year's points-per-game finish and his 2026 Footballguys projection. Could Gainwell be a limiting factor? We'll be watching for more. |
Panthers | Xavier Legette 'on the hot seat' this season Tue Jul 21, 12:58 AM
Carolina Panthers WR Xavier Legette is 'on the hot seat' this season, in the opinion of The Charlotte Observer's Mike Kaye on Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: Legette, John Metchie, and Chris Brazzell II will likely compete for the No. 3 receiver job during the offseason workouts and training camp. Legette has the size and speed to be a run-after-catch threat, but hasn't shown the ability to win downfield. Brazzell is a long, fast, flexible receiver in the mold of George Pickens, who could make a splash right away given the quality of Bryce Young's deep ball. That said, the Panthers' pass offense isn't at the level where it can support three fantasy-relevant wide receivers, so investors shouldn't dive too deep here. |

Seahawks | Two DBs not ready to practice Mon Jul 20, 04:20 PM
Seattle Seahawks S Nick Emmanwori (undisclosed) and CB Tyrone Broden (undisclosed) were placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: As Profootballtalk.com noted, it's currently unclear what landed Emmanwori on the PUP list, as he was a participant during the club's offseason program. But at this time of year, Emmanwori can come off the list to practice at any time. One of the league's best defensive rookies last year, Emmanwori tallied 81 total tackles with nine tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, 11 passes defensed, and an interception in 14 regular-season games in 2025. We'll monitor his status as camp gets underway. |
Seahawks | Kenny McIntosh starting camp on PUP list Mon Jul 20, 04:17 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenny McIntosh (knee) was placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: McIntosh was joined by safety Nick Emmanwori and cornerback Tyrone Broden. McIntosh and Broden are both coming back from injuries that occurred last year, landing them on injured reserve, while Emmanwori was on the field for offseason workouts this spring and summer. Players on the physically unable to perform list are eligible to return at any time during training camp, then if they are on the PUP list when rosters are reduced to 53 players, they are required to miss a minimum of four games. The reporting on McIntosh has been vague, with an implied return but without a timetable given. |

Commanders | Luke McCaffrey may join starting lineup Mon Jul 20, 01:30 PM
Washington Commanders WR Luke McCaffrey could earn the No. 2 receiver job if he performs well during training camp and the preseason, in the opinion of CommandersWire's Bryan Manning.
| Footballguys view: McCaffrey was trending in the right direction before breaking his collarbone midway through last season. He quickly established himself as one of the NFL's top kickoff returners in the first half, averaging almost 30 yards per return. As a receiver, McCaffrey only had 15 targets in nine games, but caught 11 passes for 203 yards and three touchdowns. He also averaged 18.5 yards per reception. While the Commanders are reportedly in the market for a WR2 -- Stefon Diggs has been mentioned -- it'll be interesting to see which current receivers, including McCaffrey, make a case in camp. |
Steelers | Eli Heidenreich on the bubble Mon Jul 20, 11:38 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Eli Heidenreich is on the roster bubble behind RB Kaleb Johnson and FB Riley Nowakowski. The team likes his explosiveness and versatility, but the staff seems committed to Johnson and Nowakowski.
| Footballguys view: If it were up to USA Today's Curt Popejoy, he would give the rookie Heidenreich a spot on the roster over Kaleb Johnson or Riley Nowakowski on the running back depth chart. His explosiveness and versatility are special, and he can help the team in multiple ways. But Popejoy acknowledges the staff seems committed to Johnson for now, as well as having the fullback Nowakowski. |
Rams | Kyren Williams consistent in 2025 Mon Jul 20, 12:21 AM
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams rushed for at least 60 yards in 14 of his 17 games in 2025, and he failed to reach 50 rushing yards just once.
| Footballguys view: While Williams remained the primary starter and a heavy red-zone weapon, Blake Corum maintained a consistent role that led to a 65-35 split between the two last season. But Williams was trusted with 84.8 percent of the running back receptions (39 catches), completely freezing Corum out of the aerial attack for most of the year, as Corum caught just seven passes. Williams, whose Footballguys projection calls for an RB16 finish, is being drafted as RB15 in Round 3. Even in an offense that runs through Matthew Stafford and the passing attack, Williams remains a locked-in starter in all formats. |
Eagles | Dontayvion Wicks wants to prove himself Mon Jul 20, 12:20 AM
Philadelphia Eagles WR Dontayvion Wicks said he is ready to prove that the Eagles made the correct decision trading for him this offseason. 'It just showed me the value and love that Philly has for me, and I want to come out and show what I'm worth,' Wicks said.
| Footballguys view: After the trade, Wicks signed a one-year, $12.5 million extension that has him tied to the club through the 2027 season. Wicks is familiar with the system he's joining, as another Packers transplant, Sean Mannion, is the Eagles' new offensive coordinator. Still, where Wicks slots in remains to be seen. Joining him are first-round pick Makai Lemon, veteran Marquise Brown, another former Packer, Samori Toure, Elijah Moore, and holdover Johnny Wilson. The unquestioned leader of the group is Devonta Smith, who's coming off his third career 1,000-yard season and is quarterback Jalen Hurts' top target. It's a situation to watch. |

Packers | Tucker Kraft still quiet on status Mon Jul 20, 12:17 AM
Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) would not say whether he will be on the field when training camp begins.
| Footballguys view: Kraft told reporters in June that he expects to be ready for Week 1 and to be able to handle his normal workload. But whether that translates to a full training camp isn't clear -- and Kraft didn't share. "We've had those talks with the training staff and with (Brian Gutekunst)," Kraft said. "You guys are going to find out as it comes out, just like pretty much how it always is." Kraft is being drafted as TE5, so his progress is worth watching. |

Jets | Cade Klubnik has shot at backup job Mon Jul 20, 12:16 AM
New York Jets QB Cade Klubnik was praised for his mechanics by quarterbacks coach Bill Musgrave, and Klubnik is expected to battle QB Bailey Zappe for the backup quarterback job during training camp.
| Footballguys view: Klubnik figures to get plenty of reps in the preseason, an opportunity to win the backup job, and lay the groundwork for late-season playing time. If the Jets fall out of contention, it could mean an audition for Klubnik. The fourth-round pick from Clemson arrives during a transition phase for the Jets, who traded for veteran journeyman Geno Smith to be their bridge quarterback. They appear to be targeting the talent-rich 2027 draft for their quarterback of the future. In the meantime, they will take a long look at Klubnik. |
Packers | Josh Jacobs easier to take down Sun Jul 19, 06:08 PM
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs ranked 17th in yards after contact last season after ranking third in the category the previous season.
| Footballguys view: Jacobs did play hurt in the second half of the season, but he has logged at least at 262 touches in each of his seven years in the NFL, so it's possible that he is starting the decline in effectiveness that comes to every running back. MarShawn Lloyd stayed healthy in the offseason for the first time since the team drafted him in the third round of the 2024 draft and he could have a weekly role that reduces Jacobs workload. |

Texans | Davis Mills locked into backup role Sun Jul 19, 06:08 PM
Houston Texans QB Davis Mills will serve as the primary backup to QB C.J. Stroud in 2026.
| Footballguys view: Mills actually played the best football of his career when Stroud went down last year and helped turn the Texans season around. He is getting seven million dollars this year, fully guaranteed on a deal signed on the eve of the 2025 season and will be a free agent in 2027. |

Bengals | Tahj Brooks expected to have limited role Sun Jul 19, 06:08 PM
Cincinnati Bengals RB Tahj Brooks is expected to play mainly on special teams in 2026.
| Footballguys view: The 2025 sixth round pick has failed to generate any buzz so far in his time with the Bengals. If injuries put the team in a position to have to depend on Brooks, it's not clear that they would trust him over a street free agent or in-season trade acquisition. |
Giants | Several WRs battling for key backup jobs Sun Jul 19, 05:30 PM
New York Giants WRs Calvin Austin III, Isaiah Hodgins and JuJu Smith-Schuster are battling to serve as backups to the top three starting WRs Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton and Darnell Mooney. Rookie draft pick WR Malachi Fields is also expected to be either third or fourth on the depth chart. WR Odell Beckham Jr. was brought in trying to rekindle his career, so he is also in the mix.

Giants | Cam Skattebo fine after jump scare Sun Jul 19, 04:13 PM
New York Giants RB Cam Skattebo (ankle) said Sunday, July 19 that he is fine after failing to land a backflip at Fanatics Fest on Saturday. He appeared to land awkwardly on his surgically-repaired right ankle during the appearance. 'I'm just going to keep being me, and if they want to say I'm brain-dead, and I don't have no brain, then who cares, f--- it,' he said.
| Footballguys view: Skattebo's devil-may-care attitude is starting to worry fantasy players, but it is an essential part of his style of play. Unless we hear that he is limited at the start of camp, we won't let this viral video change his ranking. |
Seahawks | Nick Kallerup, Eric Saubert likely to make squad Sun Jul 19, 03:29 PM
Seattle Seahawks TEs Nick Kallerup and Eric Saubert are likely to return as run-blocking specialists, but neither player is guaranteed of a spot on the 53-man roster. FB Brady Russell, considered a hybrid fullback-tight end, could cost one of the players a job.

Seahawks | Number of candidates for reserve WR role Sun Jul 19, 03:20 PM
Seattle Seahawks WRs Irvin Charles, Emmanuel Henderson Jr., Cody White and Ricky White III are all candidates for the sixth receiver role, should the organization carry that many wideouts. WR Dareke Young (Raiders) filled that role as a gunner and special teams stalwart, but it's uncertain if the team will elect to go that route. Henderson might be the most proven special teams player for his good work at the University of Kansas in 2025.
Link to story Seahawks | Jake Bobo expected to make roster Sun Jul 19, 03:16 PM

Seahawks | Rasheed Shahid has developed rapport with QB Sun Jul 19, 03:08 PM
Seattle Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed could be poised for a big step forward as a receiver in 2026 after showing growing rapport with QB Sam Darnold during spring workouts.
| Footballguys view: Shaheed will be the #2 passing game option after Jaxon Smith-Njigba and should be a target in best ball leagues with his deep speed and big play ability. Shaheed would be the #1 beneficiary if defenses decide to make Darnold to throw to someone other than Smith-Njigba and devote double coverage to him more often this season. |
Seahawks | Jadarian Price favored to open as starter Sun Jul 19, 02:52 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price is considered the favorite to serve as the starting tailback with RB Kenneth Walker III (Chiefs) moving on, and RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) still likely to miss the start of the season recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet won't be back until the second half of October at the earliest, and some time in November is probably a more realistic target date, so he's not a good pick in leagues with short benches. 2024 UDFA George Holani will be the third down back to open the season and he and or free agent signing Emanuel Wilson could share early down work with Price if the team doesn't think he is ready for a big role after serving as Arizona #3 overall pick Jeremiyah Love's backup at Notre Dame. |

He remains eligible to come off of the NFI list to play in his rookie season. Dinkins is viewed as an in-line blocker when the team intends to use multiple tight ends, therefore he is viewed as a depth player initially.
Link to story 49ers | Kyle Juszczyk could be fallback option Sun Jul 19, 02:08 PM
San Francisco 49ers FB Kyle Juszczyk could be used as a tight end in training camp if TE George Kittle (Achilles) is forced to the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, as insurance in case the starter isn't ready to begin the regular season. However, he is also considered an important part as a lead blocker, as the team looks to jump-start its rushing game.

49ers | Jake Tonges ready if needed to start Sun Jul 19, 02:04 PM
San Francisco 49ers TE Jake Tonges stepped up as a dependable option last season when TE George Kittle (Achilles) due to injuries. If Kittle opens training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, and remains there for the opening four games, Tonges would likely step in again as the starter.
| Footballguys view: Tonges was fantasy relevant more often than not when Kittle missed time last year and the 49ers offense is one of the more dependable value creators in the NFL. It's reasonable to take Tonges in the last round if you take Kittle as your primary tight end this year, but we expect Kittle to beat most achilles return timelines and get back to full speed earlier than a typical player would given his approach to the game and level of play into his 30s. |
Ravens | Tyler Pezza challenging for roster spot Sun Jul 19, 01:18 PM
Baltimore Ravens TE Tyler Pezza has an opportunity in training camp and the preseason to prove he can function as a hybrid receiving option. He was listed as a wide receiver at Brown University, but the team lists him as a 6-foot-3, 234-pound rookie tight end. Even if he proves to be a solid in-line blocker, he must be able to show an ability to play the slot, cover kicks, etc. He has a shot at a roster spot if the team elects to keep four tight ends.

Baltimore Ravens WR Cortez Braham Jr. faces an uphill climb for a spot on the 53-man roster in training camp and the preseason due to a crowded receivers' room. At 6-foot-2 and 203 pounds, he is a big target, but with WRs Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman as starters, and WRs Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt drafted with expectations, Braham has tough odds to crack through. Holdover WRs Devontez Walker and LaJohntay Wester are also obstacles for the undrafted rookie.

Houston Texans WR Nico Collins was limited in minicamp, working on the side, but he said Sunday, July 19, that it was not due to any kind of injury. The coaching staff and general manager were simply holding him back as a precaution, and trying to get him ready for training camp.
| Footballguys view: We'll be watching to make sure Collins isn't limited to begin camp, but there's no reason that he would be assuming the Texans are being honest here. Tank Dell's comeback from a catastrophic 2024 leg injury will be the big camp story at wide receiver for Houston. |
