Isaiah McKenzie Has Taken A Step Forward

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie seems to have taken a step forward, and he has a big opportunity this year with veteran slot man Cole Beasley now gone.

Buccaneers Not Concerned With Leonard Fournette's Weight

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said he has no issues with running back Leonard Fournette's weight, and he looked much slimmer in the team's first training camp practice on Wednesday compared to mandatory minicamp in June. Fournette said he weighed 244 pounds for the start of camp after a report said he weighted […]

Geno Smith Begins Camp With First-Team Offense

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith ran with the first-team offense at training camp practice on Wednesday, with Drew Lock working with the second-team. Lock did get a couple first-team repetitions with the starting offensive line in 11-man offensive drills without a defense present, however. Smith was in the lead in the QB competition after mandatory […]

Rams In Love With Allen Robinson II

The Los Angeles Rams coaching staff is in love with wide receiver Allen Robinson II. They love his approach in meetings to what he can give them in this offense. His route tree and where he can line up are more varied than they would have hoped. The bottom line is that Robinson could be […]

Colts Working To Get Nyheim Hines The Ball

107.5 The Fan's Kevin Bowen said he expects the Indianapolis Colts to continue to find creative ways to get running back Nyheim Hines on the field more and to give him different touches. Indianapolis had a lot of success with both Hines and Jonathan Taylor on the field together in 2021, so that should expand […]

Matt Ryan Nearly Flawless Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan was nearly flawless in 11-on-11 work in training camp practice on Wednesday, and he went 7-for-8 in full-team work while completing passes to Michael Pittman Jr., Jonathan Taylor, Nyheim Hines, Alec Pierce and Mo Alie-Cox. The timing of the Colts passing game was impressive, and Ryan will bring more decisiveness […]

Donovan Peoples-Jones A Favorite Of Deshaun Watson

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones is in great shape to begin training camp and is earning opportunities. He's also already a favorite of quarterback Deshaun Watson. It's a good start for Peoples-Jones, but the problem is that Watson could be facing a lengthy suspension in his first year in Cleveland. Amari Cooper is the […]

Sammis Reyes Back On The Field

Washington Commanders tight end Sammis Reyes (leg) is practicing with the team at training camp after missing the offseason program with what head coach Ron Rivera described as leg discomfort due to an "old screw" from a previous procedure.

Chase Young Might Not Be Ready For Week 1

Washington Commanders defensive end Chase Young (knee) is on the Physically Unable to Perform list to begin training camp, and his timeline for on-field work remains unclear.

Carson Wentz Struggles Under Pressure Wednesday

Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz didn't throw into traffic when under duress at training camp practice on Wednesday, but he struggled to make plays at times when under pressure, even without the threat of being hit. It's a weakness that he's shown with the Eagles and Colts in his past stops. Even short passes to […]

Brian Robinson Expected To Handle Short-Yardage Situations

The Washington Commanders selected rookie running back Brian Robinson in the third round for his power and ball security, and at a minimum, he's expected to handle short-yardage work this year. Washington plans to find ways to get Antonio Gibson the ball in space, rather than force him inside. And the Commanders also re-signed pass-catching […]

Marquise Brown Expected Back Soon

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that wide receiver Marquise Brown (hamstring) injured his hamstring last week, but he's expected to return to practice soon. Brown was placed on the Non-Football Injury list to begin training camp on Tuesday, but he shouldn't be out for long. That's good news, as the 25-year-old needs all […]

DK Metcalf Not Practicing

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (foot) is at training camp, but he's not practicing with the team after having offseason foot surgery in March. Metcalf didn't start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, so he could return to practice shortly. There's also the issue of the 24-year-old's contract situation with the […]

Mike Trout Battling Rare Back Condition

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (back, ribs) might need at least one more week for his cortisone shot to take effect before he can ramp up his baseball activity.

Ty France Out With Wrist Injury Wednesday

Seattle Mariners first baseman Ty France (wrist) is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers after tweaking his left wrist swinging in front of an offspeed pitch on Tuesday.

Kris Bryant To Serve As DH Against White Sox

Colorado Rockies outfielder Kris Bryant (foot) will serve as the designated hitter and bat third on Wednesday against Chicago White Sox right-hander Lucas Giolito. Bryant revealed on Tuesday night that he has been playing through plantar fasciitis in his left foot. It's very possible that we'll see the 30-year-old get more starts as the team's […]

Justin Turner Returns Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner (abdomen) is back at third base and is hitting fifth in the starting lineup on Wednesday against Washington Nationals left-hander Patrick Corbin. The 37-year-old veteran sat out the last five games with an abdominal injury, but he'll return on Wednesday in a great matchup against a struggling pitcher […]

Mitch Trubisky To Get First Crack At Starting Job

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mitch Trubisky is a great system fit for offensive coordinator Matt Canada's offense, and he is leading the team's QB competition this summer. Trubisky was expected to get the first crack at the starting job to replace the retired Ben Roethlisberger in 2022, so this shouldn't come as a huge surprise, even […]

Matt Patricia Calls Plays On Wednesday

New England Patriots offensive coach Matt Patricia called the plays for the team's offense at training camp practice on Wednesday. Players pointed out that Patricia brings all his defensive knowledge to the table and let's them see, as offensive tackle Trent Brown said, "the who, what, when, where and why" of how a defense thinks […]

Mekhi Becton Still A Possibility At Left Tackle

New York Jets left tackle Mekhi Becton's left-tackle days "aren't over," according to head coach Robert Saleh. Becton was drafted 11th overall in 2020 out of Louisville and had a strong rookie season, starting 13 games for the Jets. However, it's been all downhill since then, as he played in just one game last year […]

Eagles Confident In Jalen Hurts

The Philadelphia Eagles are very confident in quarterback Jalen Hurts despite reports this spring that he struggled in offseason practices. The Eagles believe he's progressing as he heads into his second season as the full-time starting QB. Hurts was healthy during organized team activities after having surgery on his left ankle in the offseason, so […]

Michael Gallup Hasn't Missed A Target In His Rehab

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) "has not missed a target yet" in his rehab from surgery to fix a torn ACL in February, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. "He hasn't had a setback" in the "fourth quarter" of his rehab. "He looks really good." Gallup started training camp on the Physically Unable […]

Daniel Bellinger Activated From PUP List

New York Giants rookie tight end Daniel Bellinger (quadriceps) passed his physical and has been activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list.

The Giants lost tight ends Kyle Rudolph and Evan Engram in free agency, but they added Ricky […]

Jacoby Brissett To Start If Deshaun Watson Is Suspended

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski clarified the team's quarterback depth chart on Wednesday. "Jacoby Brissett is our backup quarterback. If Deshaun Watson is unavailable, Jacoby's our starter." Brissett will get first-team repetitions in training camp practices just in case Watson is suspended for a good chunk (or all) of the 2022 season. Brissett proved […]

Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield Splitting First-Team Reps

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold took the first-team repetitions at training camp practice on Wednesday, and Baker Mayfield will get the first-team reps at practice on Thursday, according to head coach Matt Rhule. This was the expectation all along after the Panthers acquired Mayfield in a trade with the Cleveland Browns. The mere fact that […]

Vinnie Pasquantino Out With Thumb Discomfort

Kansas City Royals rookie first baseman/designated hitter Vinnie Pasquantino (thumb) is dealing with right thumb discomfort, which is why he's not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Angels. He felt it on a swing on Tuesday but is "feeling better today," according to skipper Mike Matheny. Fantasy managers should consider the […]

Wan'Dale Robinson Working With First-Team Offense

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson was working with the first-team offense at practice on Wednesday alongside Kenny Golladay and Kadarius Toney. Keep in mind that Sterling Shepard (Achilles) opened training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, but it's worth noting that Robinson is already ahead of Darius Slayton on the […]

Packers Not Looking To Add A Veteran Receiver

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said he's not looking to add a veteran wide receiver at this point in training camp, in part because there's not a lot out there right now and he "really likes the group we have." It's a bit surprising considering both veteran Sammy Watkins and rookie Christian Watson […]

Christian Watson's Injury Isn't Serious

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Christian Watson's (undisclosed) injury isn't considered serious and he's expected to "miss a little bit of time" in training camp, according to general manager Brian Gutekunst. Watson was placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list on Tuesday after having an undisclosed procedure in the offseason. The 23-year-old pass-catcher […]
