Parris Campbell Involved In Minor Car Accident

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell was involved in a minor car accident on Wednesday and will enter the concussion protocol.

Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Mackensie Alexander was arrested on Tuesday night on one count of battery, according to the Collier County (Fla.) Sheriff's Office records.

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Mike Pennel has been suspended for the first two games of the 2020 season. Pennel violated the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs.

Cleveland Browns cornerback Greedy Williams (shoulder) injured his shoulder at practice on Tuesday, and head coach Kevin Stefanski said the team is still evaluating whether Williams will need to miss a significant amount of time with the injury.

Mike Williams To Miss 2-4 Weeks

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (shoulder) is expected to miss two to four weeks with a shoulder injury, according to an informed source.

Joe Burrow Has Full Grasp Of Offense

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that rookie quarterback Joe Burrow has "full grasp of our offense." Burrow won the starting job before his first training camp practice, and his work the past few weeks in camp has reaffirmed the club's decision.

Packers Very Confident In Tim Boyle

Green Bay Packers quarterback Tim Boyle has really impressed the team during training camp and appears to have a leg up as Aaron Rodgers' backup over first-rounder Jordan Love. "He’s proven himself day-in and day-out. Glad we have him. Again, with Aaron back there, you hope you never have to go that route. But if […]

Marcus Mariota Hasn't Looked Good In Practice

Three Las Vegas Raiders beat writers noted that quarterback Marcus Mariota had a poor week of practice in training camp. Head coach Jon Gruden's offense is a complicated system to pick up quickly, so perhaps that's part of the reason. It's good news for incumbent Derek Carr, but he'll still be on a short leash […]

Josh Norman To Miss Time With Hamstring Injury

Buffalo Bills cornerback Josh Norman (hamstring) doesn't have a timetable to return to practice after suffering a left hamstring injury last week, according to head coach Sean McDermott.

Frank Gore Impressing At Jets Camp

New York Jets veteran running back Frank Gore has been extremely impressive at training camp so far. "The most impressive running back at Jets camp is Frank Gore. I don't think it's really close, either," The Athletic's Connor Hughes said. The 37-year-old continues to defy all expectations as he nears the end of his career. […]

Brian Hill Appears To Be No. 2 Behind Todd Gurley

Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Hill appears to be the clear No. 2 behind Todd Gurley II in training camp.

49ers Working Out Kevin White, Other Receivers

The San Francisco 49ers are having receiver workouts on Tuesday with free-agent wide receivers Kevin White, Johnny Holton, River Cracraft and Justin Hardy.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chad Henne has officially locked up the backup duties to Patrick Mahomes, with Matt Moore an option for one of the newly created veteran spots on the practice squad.

Darrel Williams The Clear No. 2 Back

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darrel Williams is the clear No. 2 running back behind rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire after two weeks of practices. Damien Williams' decision to opt out of the 2020 season due to COVID-19 has elevated Darrel Williams' fantasy stock considerably. Edwards-Helaire should see the lion's share of backfield work in this explosive […]

Saints Defense Looking Good

The New Orleans Saints Defense has looked good early in training camp, specifically their sneaky deep defensive line. The Saints also have one of their best secondaries in recent memory, which includes a breakout candidate in Chauncey Gardner-Johnson.

Trent Williams Seems To Be In Elite Form

San Francisco 49ers left tackle Trent Williams has been giving pass-rusher Nick Bosa fits in practice during training camp.

The 32-year-old is replacing the retired Joe Staley on the left side of the […]

Eagles Re-Engage Zach Ertz In Contract Talks

The Philadelphia Eagles have re-engaged on contract talks with tight end Zach Ertz. The timing makes sense after two stars (George Kittle, Travis Kelce) at the position recently got paid.

Cowboys Not Expected To Pursue Earl Thomas

Although the Dallas Cowboys made some inquiries on free-agent Pro Bowl safety Earl Thomas after he was released by the Ravens on Sunday, they are not expected to be among the teams vying for his services, sources say.

Damon Arnette Trending Up As A Starter

Las Vegas Raiders cornerback Damon Arnette, who was a surprising first-round selection at 19th overall, is reportedly winning the fight to start over Prince Amukamara opposite Trayvon Mullen to open the 2020 season.

Bills Hold Workout With Darron Lee

The Buffalo Bills held a workout with free-agent linebacker Darron Lee. The 25-year-old was drafted in the first round (20th overall) by the Jets in 2016 and spent three seasons with them before starting in two games for the Chiefs last year. He had 31 combined tackles in his time with KC last year and […]
