Indianapolis Colts kickers Spencer Shrader (knee) and Blake Grupe will compete for the place-kicking job in Indy in training camp this summer, per Paul Bretl of Colts Wire. Shrader was 13-for-14 on field goals and a perfect 14-for-14 on extra points in five games last year before suffering an ACL injury in his knee. He […]

Tim Weaver of Falcons Wire writes that Atlanta Falcons wide receivers Olamide Zaccheaus, Jahan Dotson, and rookie Zachariah Branch will battle for the WR2 job in training camp this summer behind Drake London. Dotson, a former first-rounder by the Philadelphia Eagles, is the most logical option, but he hasn't been anything special in the NFL […]

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Eli Stowers could be a sneaky target for dynasty managers. The Eagles selected Stowers in the second-round out of Vanderbilt. He put together an impressive performance during the NFL Scouting Combine. There's some good long-term potential here, even if Stowers isn't going to be heavily involved right away. Dallas Goedert is […]

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen is looking to bounce back after a disappointing 2025 campaign. Due to injuries, Allen was limited to four games this past season. The 22-year-old has worked hard this offseason to get his body right and get himself ready for a bounce-back campaign in 2026. Even if he's in […]

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland is looking to build off a strong rookie campaign. The 22-year-old registered 58 receptions, 713 receiving yards, and six touchdowns in 16 games with the Bears last season. Like many rookies, Loveland was eased into the mix, but it didn't take him long to surpass Cole Kmet on the […]

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) put together a career year this past season. Pierce posted career highs in both receptions (47) and receiving yards (1,003) across 15 games with the Colts last season. He was rewarded with a hefty $114 million contract. Now the expectations are much higher with Pierce being one of […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin has had a strong run in his three seasons with the Bucs, but he'll likely be kicking for his job in a contract year in 2026, according to Logan Robinson and River Wells of Sports Illustrated. McLaughlin has made 90.1% of his 101 field-goal attempts (26-for-30 from 50-plus yards) […]

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington will be competing for the WR3 role in training camp this summer behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, according to Nate Atkins of The Athletic.

New England Patriots running back Terrell Jennings (undisclosed) will open training camp on the Non-Football Injury list, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.

It was reported earlier on Tuesday that the Arizona Cardinals and veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett haven't reached a resolution as he seeks a new deal, but the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport is reporting that the two sides are in talks with rookies and veterans scheduled to report to training camp on Wednesday. If the two […]

Detroit Lions Pro Bowl tight end Sam LaPorta (back) was fully cleared earlier this month and will be ready to go for the start of training camp, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The Lions will determine LaPorta's level of involvement early in camp, but he's expected to be a full-go after having surgery […]

The Miami Dolphins announced on Tuesday that they placed rookie third-round wide receiver Chris Bell (knee) on the Non-Football Injury list.

Taylor is entering the final year of the three-year, $42 million contract he signed with the team in October of 2023. He said he wants "to be a Colt for life," but if the two […]

The eighth overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan recorded 70 catches for 1,014 yards and seven touchdowns on 122 targets across 17 games as a rookie. By measure of per-game PPR scoring, McMillan finished the year as a low-end WR2. Entering 2026, the 23-year-old remains the clear number […]

After a high-profile contract disagreement that led to him missing most of last summer, Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin had his 2025 season derailed by quad and core injuries that caused him to miss seven games. The veteran wideout remained a productive player when healthy, recording 38 catches for 582 yards and three touchdowns […]

The 16th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft by the Washington Commanders, current Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Jahan Dotson has yet to live up to his draft-day pedigree. Dotson spent the 2025 season with the Philadelphia Eagles, recording 18 catches for 262 yards and one touchdown on 36 targets across 17 games (10 starts). […]

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews had one of the least productive seasons of his career in 2025, recording 48 catches for 422 yards and five touchdowns on 70 targets across 17 games.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike outplayed expectations during his rookie season. The 24-year-old was primarily drafted in the fourth round in 2025 to contribute on special teams as a punt and kick returner. However, Dike hauled in 48 catches for 423 yards and four touchdowns on 74 targets after the team battled injuries all […]

Across 15 games (11 starts) in 2025, New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. recorded 1,028 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 212 touches. Early on last season, Tracy Jr. appeared to be losing his touches to fellow Giants back Cam Skattebo (ankle). Tracy Jr. regained the team's RB1 role after Skattebo went down […]

The Arizona Cardinals and quarterback Jacoby Brissett have not found a resolution to Brissett's contract situation, according to Ian Rapoport on NFL Network.

Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn (foot) will be placed on the non-football injury list this week after suffering a cut on his foot that required stitches, per Darin Gantt of Panthers.com.

The Denver Post's Parker Gabriel projects quarterback Sam Ehlinger to take over the backup QB job in 2026 from Jarrett Stidham. Gabriel admits that projecting Ehlinger as the QB2 is "a bit out on a limb," considering Stidham has earned plenty of equity with the front office, coaching staff, and locker room as he enters […]

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams was a classic boom-or-bust fantasy receiver in 2025. The 25-year-old speedster posted seven games with fewer than seven fantasy points and eight games with 15 or more fantasy points. Most of Williams' boom games came after head coach Dan Campbell took over play-calling in Week 10. This offseason, the […]

While it remains highly unlikely that Las Vegas Raiders rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza, the first overall pick in April's draft out of Indiana, will open the 2026 campaign as the team's starter under center, Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer writes that it sounds like the Raiders will "sprinkle" Mendoza in with the first-team offense in training […]

The Cincinnati Bengals will rely on running back Chase Brown as the lead back in 2026, as he enters his third season. The Bengals decided not to invest heavily in running backs once again this offseason. After a slow start in 2025, Brown managed to finish the season as the RB7 overall in PPR scoring. […]

Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated thinks that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and quarterback Baker Mayfield will reach a contract extension before Week 1 of the regular season in early September. Mayfield said in June that the two sides weren't close to a new deal and that he didn't want to negotiate after training camp started […]

A first-round pick of the Tennessee Titans in 2022, current Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks was never able to live up to his draft-day pedigree in Tennessee. However, the 26-year-old could have a second chance to establish an NFL career in Washington. After latching on with the Commanders midway through the 2025 season, Burks […]

The Athletic's Alec Lewis writes that optimism persists for quarterback Max Brosmer. The Vikings wished he didn't have to play during his rookie season, but circumstances put him into the spotlight last year due to injuries to J.J. McCarthy, and he completed 66.2% of his pass attempts for 328 yards, no touchdowns, and four interceptions […]

The Minnesota Vikings quarterback competition is set to go "right up to the start" of the 2026 regular season, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The Vikings acquired veteran Kyler Murray over the offseason to compete with incumbent signal-caller J.J. McCarthy, who battled both injuries and underperformance in 2025. Murray was limited to just […]
