Terrelle Pryor Has Another Ankle Injury

New York Jets wide receiver Terrelle Pryor (ankle) suffered another ankle injury in the offseason and is not taking part in organized team activities this week, according to a source.

Quincy Enunwa Limited At OTAs

New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (neck) is doing wide receiver drills at organized team activities but isn't wearing a helmet and is likely to sit out of team drills as he recovers from neck surgery last year. Enunwa missed all of 2017 while dealing with the injury after breaking out in 2016 with […]

Deshaun Watson Throwing At OTAs

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson (knee) has been throwing at organized team activities this week. Watson will likely be held to just individual throwing drills, but it's a great sign that he's progressing nicely from last year's season-ending knee injury. The 22-year-old had an incredible 19 touchdown passes and eight interceptions in seven games in […]

Curtis Samuel Participating In OTAs

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel (ankle) is taking part in organized team activities as he continues to rehab his ankle.

Norv Turner Has High Expectations For Cam Newton

Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator Norv Turner believes that quarterback Cam Newton can be the most efficient passer in the league. Turner has been impressed with Newton's work ethic and how receptive he is in learning the new offense. Newton is coming off two down years after winning the MVP in 2015, and he'll be in […]

Aaron Donald Won't Attend OTAs

Los Angeles Rams Pro Bowl defensive tackle Aaron Donald informed the team that he will not be attending organized team activities as he seeks a new contract, according to a team official.

Josh Reynolds Tore Labrum Last Year

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Josh Reynolds (shoulder) suffered a torn labrum in his shoulder on a punt return in the fourth quarter of the team's playoff loss to the Falcons last year.

Russell Shepard Signing With Giants

Free-agent wide receiver Russell Shepard signed with the New York Giants on Monday, reuniting with former general manager Dave Gettleman from their days in Carolina.

Josh McCown Expected To Open Season As Starter

New York Jets veteran quarterback Josh McCown is expected to enter the season as the starting quarterback. However, first-rounder Sam Darnold, taken third overall in the draft, will be breathing down McCown's neck. Darnold will turn just 21 years old on June 5 and needs to be coached out of some bad habits (22 turnovers […]

Alvin Kamara To See More Touches

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, who finished sixth in the league in yards from scrimmage, led the league in yards per carry and caught more passes than any running back not named Le'Veon Bell, is expected to see 14 or 15 carries per game with running back Mark Ingram suspended for the first […]

Donte Moncrief Expected To Start

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief, a key free-agent addition, is expected to start alongside Marqise Lee in 2018. However, second-year wideouts Keelan Cole and Dede Westbrook also figure to play key roles in the passing game. Moncrief was a disappointment in his four years with the Colts, never catching more than 64 passes, and […]

Dalvin Cook Ahead Of Schedule

Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said running back Dalvin Cook (knee) is ahead of schedule in his rehab and is expected to get some work in at organized team activities.

Pats Working On Restructuring Rob Gronkowski

The New England Patriots are currently working on restructuring tight end Rob Gronkowski's deal. If the deal includes incentives like last year, the deal can't be completed until May 24.

Vikings Hoping To Sign Stefon Diggs To Extension

The Minnesota Vikings are hoping to sign wide receiver Stefon Diggs to a contract extension. Diggs regressed a little bit from 2016 last season with 64 catches for 849 yards, but he did set a career high and was tied for the team lead with eight touchdown grabs. In a high-flying Minnesota offense that upgraded […]

Adrian Clayborn Injured During OTAs

New England Patriots defensive end Adrian Clayborn (quadriceps), the team's top free-agent signee, tweaked his quadriceps during a workout last week, according to a source familiar with the situation. The injury could cause Clayborn to be limited when Phase 3 of the team's offseason workouts start this week. However, he's still expected to be ready […]

Jeff Heuerman Enters OTAs As No. 1 Tight End

Denver Broncos tight end Jeff Heuerman enters organized team activities as the No. 1 tight end, but Jake Butt will mix in.

Jordan Leggett May Have Leg Up On Starting Job

New York Jets tight end Jordan Leggett, the fifth-rounder in 2017 that missed all of last season due to a knee injury, figures to have the leg up on the starting tight end gig in 2018, although he'll be competing with Chris Herndon and Clive Walford. Herndon was drafted in the fourth round last month. […]

Julio Jones Not Expected To Attend OTAs

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones is not expected to attend organized team activities next week, according to sources. Jones is seeking an update to his contract, and it sounds like the team is willing to consider it. It seems as though the 29-year-old is always dinged up, but he continues to produce nonetheless and […]

Odell Beckham Jr. To Attend OTAs

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) will attend the team's voluntary organized team activities, according to a source. The Giants will start Phase 3 of their offseason conditioning program Monday, May 21, and Beckham will attend despite having not worked out a contract extension with the team. We doubt that OBJ will […]

49ers Could Be Cautious With Richard Sherman

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman (Achilles) jogged on the field for the first time Wednesday and on a treadmill before and said he "felt great."

Chris Godwin May Have Earned Starting Role

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Todd Monkey continues to praise wide receiver Chris Godwin and thinks he's earned the right to be a starter in 2018. The 22-year-old showed well in his rookie season, catching 34 passes for 525 yards and one touchdown, but he's behind Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson in three-wide sets, so […]

Rashaad Penny Signs Rookie Deal

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Rashaad Penny, the 27th overall pick in the draft, signed a four-year contract with a fifth-year option on Thursday.

Penny is expected to compete with Chris Carson for lead-back duties immediately, and Seattle's coaching staff is high […]

Terrance West Visiting Jaguars

Free-agent running back Terrance West is visiting with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Wednesday, according to a source. West had just 39 carries for 138 yards (3.5 yards per carry) and two touchdowns in five games for the Ravens in 2017 and would be hard-pressed to see much playing time with the Jags even after they […]

Saints A Fit For Dez Bryant?

Former Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten thinks the New Orleans Saints could be a good fit for free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant. "That's a vertical passing attack," Witten said. "You need somebody that can stretch the field and [be] an X factor, and that's Dez Bryant." The aging receiver led the NFL in drops […]
