The Carolina Panthers recently participated in a joint practice with the Jaguars ahead of Friday night's preseason matchup. While the session got off to a slow start for the Panthers' offense, things quickly settled into place once quarterback Bryce Young started looking in the direction of wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan. "Bryce just started finding TMac […]


Raiders Not Ready to Name a Starting Quarterback for Week 1

The Las Vegas Raiders open the regular season by hosting the Miami Dolphins on September 13, but head coach Klint Kubiak is not ready to name a starting quarterback, according to ESPN's Ryan McFadden.

Luther Burden III Looks "Mostly Fine"

The Chicago Bears were in Cincinnati on Thursday for a joint practice with the Bengals, and while second-year wide receiver Luther Burden III (groin) did not participate as he works his way back from the groin injury that has caused him to miss most of training camp, podcast hosts Adam Hoge and Adam Jahns expressed […]


Makai Lemon Back at Practice

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Makai Lemon (hamstring) returned to practice on Thursday, seen warming up alongside his teammates without a red non-contact jersey. The Eagles are participating in their second day of joint practices with the New England Patriots, so after being sidelined for more than two weeks with a hamstring injury, Lemon will […]

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) exited Wednesday's training camp practice early, and he is now expected to miss about a week with a minor groin injury, according to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport.

Veteran running back Myles Gaskin has announced his retirement from the NFL, according to Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk. "Football . . . there will never be enough words to explain how I feel about you, so I won't even try," Gaskin posted to social media on Wednesday night. "What I will do is […]


Evan Engram Raves About Broncos Offense

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram failed to reach 500 receiving yards in his first season with the team, scoring only one touchdown, but to hear him tell it, big things are in store not just for him, but for the entire Broncos offense in Year 1 under new play-caller Davis Webb. "One of the […]


Malik Nabers Not Participating in Joint Practice

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) is not participating in Thursday's joint practice with the Miami Dolphins as he continues to work his way back from the severe knee injury that ended his 2025 season. Nabers only recently began participating in full team drills while wearing a red non-contact jersey, so it comes […]


Jonathan Greenard Could Miss Week 1

The Philadelphia Eagles traded for edge rusher Jonathan Greenard (pectoral) during the 2026 NFL Draft, and they promptly extended him with a four-year, $100 million deal, but he began training camp on the physically unable to perform list after suffering a pectoral strain while lifting weights, and his Week 1 availability is now in doubt. […]


Raiders Want Fernando Mendoza to Improve His Timing and Anticipation

Las Vegas Raiders rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza put up solid numbers in his preseason debut against the Cardinals, and on Tuesday he was given first-team reps against the Houston Texans defense during joint practice. Still, he acknowledges that he has plenty of room for growth. In a SportsCenter segment following practice, ESPN's Ryan McFadden points […]


Malik Nabers Needs to Take Contact Before Being Cleared for Week 1

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) has taken part in team periods over the past two practices as he works his way back from the serious knee injury that ended his 2025 season, but until he sheds the red non-contact jersey he's worn since his return, he will not be cleared to play […]


Omarion Hampton Sets the Tone in Joint Practice

The Los Angeles Chargers hosted the San Francisco 49ers for a joint practice on Tuesday, and the loudest ovation of the day came on a tone-setting run from second-year running back Omarion Hampton. Reportedly welcoming contact all day, Hampton drew the attention of onlookers and teammates alike by plowing through 49ers safety Ji'Ayir Brown during […]


Titans Sign Veteran Running Back D'Ernest Johnson

Veteran running back D'Ernest Johnson has agreed to a one-year deal with the Tennessee Titans, according to NFL Insider Jordan Schultz. Tony Pollard (foot), Nicholas Singleton (undisclosed/foot), and Kalel Mullings (hip) all missed Monday's practice, so Johnson brings much-needed training camp depth to a position stretched thin of late, providing the added bonus of extensive […]


Tyler Biadasz Suffers Significant Knee Injury

Los Angeles Chargers center Tyler Biadasz (knee) was carted off the field during Tuesday's joint practice with the 49ers, and NFL Insider Mike Garafolo reports that while the team is still gathering medical information, there is a belief that the former Pro Bowler will miss significant time after damaging several ligaments in his knee. The […]

Alvin Kamara Expected to Be Sidelined at Least a Month

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee) left Tuesday's joint practice with the Cowboys, and he is now expected to be sidelined for at least a month after being diagnosed with a sprained MCL, according to NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The five-time Pro Bowler dealt with a similar injury last season that kept him […]


Makai Lemon Could Be Nearing a Return

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Makai Lemon (hamstring) has missed valuable training camp time with a hamstring injury, but after taking part in on-field rehab work during Monday's practice, Eagles beat reporter EJ Smith believes he is closing in on a return to full participation. Lemon has been sidelined since early August, and Smith cautions […]


Woody Marks Runs the Majority of Routes in Joint Practice

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks was one of the most prolific pass-catching backs in college football history, racking up more than 245 receptions across his time at Mississippi State and USC. As a rookie in 2025, he caught only 24 passes, as injuries at the position forced him into more of a between-the-tackles role. […]


Texans Keeping David Montgomery Fresh Through Limited Touches

Throughout much of training camp, Houston Texans running back David Montgomery has had his workload managed, with the coaching staff aiming to keep him fresh for the regular season. During Tuesday's joint practice with the Raiders, however, he provided a reminder of what he can do when unleashed, with Texans analyst John Harris calling him […]


Nick Emmanwori - IDP Rankings, Seattle Seahawks DST Defense Streamers

IDP Season Sleepers, Breakouts, Busts

There's a meme of a guy standing alone in the corner of a party thinking, "They don't know..." You know who knows? IDP managers. While most fantasy hobbyists are whooping it up over some pedestrian 80-yard touchdown strike, we’re in the corner smirking because one of our guys was closest to the scene when the […]


Breece Hall to Miss 2-3 Weeks, Expected Back for Week 1

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (groin) exited Monday's practice with a groin injury and is now expected to miss 2-3 weeks, with head coach Aaron Glenn telling reporters he will be ready for the start of the regular season, according to The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt.

Tyjae Spears' Busy Training Camp Continues

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has had a productive summer, accumulating 39 yards on five touches in the team's preseason opener and carrying that momentum back to the practice field. With Tony Pollard (foot), Nick Singleton (undisclosed/foot), and Kalel Mullings (hip) all held out of Monday's session, Spears was the Titans' most active back, […]


A "Faster, More Explosive" Braelon Allen Could See More Touches

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen missed most of the 2025 season with a sprained MCL, but after an offseason of intensive rehab, he told the media on Monday that he is faster and more explosive than ever. With starting running back Breece Hall (groin) exiting practice with a groin injury, the third-year back […]


Roger Goodell Has No Doubt There Will Be NFL Teams Outside the USA

By the end of the 2026 season, the NFL will have played 65 regular-season games outside of the United States, and commissioner Roger Goodell believes it is only a matter of time before the league expands internationally. "At some point, there will be NFL teams outside the USA," he told former NFL player Markus Kuhn […]


Jalen McMillan Returns to Practice After Multi-Week Absence

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan (knee) is back at practice on Tuesday, working in pads after missing almost two weeks with a sore knee.

Luke Musgrave Likely to Begin the Season on PUP List

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave (neck) is currently on the physically unable to perform list due to a neck injury sustained during the team's mandatory minicamp in June, and there's a growing belief he could carry the designation into the regular season. In a recent 53-man roster projection, CHTV co-founder Aaron Nagler and […]


Josh Downs to Still See Usage in Two-Receiver Sets

Used primarily from the slot through the first three seasons of his career, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs has seen extensive outside work throughout training camp, with a lack of positional depth leading to a projection of expanded usage in two-receiver sets. With the Colts signing veteran receiver Keenan Allen on Monday night, there […]


Parker Washington Day-to-Day with Undisclosed Injury

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington (undisclosed) is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury but is expected to return next week, according to ESPN's Michael DiRocco. Washington came into his fourth training camp as part of a crowded receiver room, but by most accounts has emerged as quarterback Trevor Lawrence's favorite target and is in line […]


Keon Coleman Seen in a Walking Boot Following Preseason Injury

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (foot) was banged up in the team's preseason opener, appearing to favor his lower body after being tackled on a fourth-down converting catch. On Tuesday, he was seen wearing a walking boot on his right foot, according to Buffalo sports reporter Dan Fetes. Head coach Joe Brady had indicated […]


LeQuint Allen Jr. to Miss the Rest of Training Camp

Jacksonville Jaguars running back LeQuint Allen Jr. (undisclosed) suffered a soft-tissue injury on Monday and will not return for the remainder of training camp, according to Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union. One of the best pass-blocking backs in the league as a rookie in 2025, Allen is projected to hold a significant role on […]
