Marqise Lee, Donte Moncrief Both Practicing

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee practiced in full on Thursday, while wideout Donte Moncrief (ankle) worked on the side. Both players were injured in practice last weekend. They should both be fine moving forward. Lee has become the team's No. 1 wideout in 2018, but that doesn't necessarily mean he'll put up big numbers […]

Dede Westbrook Flashing In Training Camp

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook has flashed early on in training camp and had multiple catches on Thursday, including a 45-yarder from quarterback Cody Kessler.

Leonard Fournette Feeling Better

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette said he feels better playing 15 pounds lighter this year. “I have been more consistent on my bursts and stuff, just a lot of conditioning I have been doing in the offseason…," Fournette said.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown is being evaluated for an undisclosed injury but is considered day-to-day, according to head coach Mike Tomlin.

Blocking A Concern For Mike Gesicki

Miami Dolphins rookie tight end Mike Gesicki missed a blitz in practice on Thursday, and his blocking continues to be a concern, as he wasn't asked to do much blitz pickup in college. However, he made up for it by catching a nice touchdown from quarterback Brock Osweiler in one-on-one drills. Gesicki has been one […]

Trevor Williams Avoids High Ankle Sprain

Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Trevor Williams (ankle) avoided a high ankle sprain and will play in the preseason at some point.

Nyheim Hines Carving Out Role in the Slot

Indianapolis Colts rookie running back Nyheim Hines is repeatedly being lined up in the slot in training camp, according to Stephen Holder of the Indianapolis Star.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrance Williams' case has been settled and he has paid $2,680.11 to the city of Frisco for damages.

Colts Backfield Could Vary Game To Game

The Indianapolis Colts are expected to employ a running-back-by-committee approach, and who the lead back will be could vary on a weekly basis. The unit includes Robert Turbin, Christine Michael, Marlon Mack, Nyheim Hines and Jordan Wilkins. “What keeps them on their toes right now is that they have to learn everything,” head coach Frank […]

Jordy Nelson Looking Good In Camp

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Jordy Nelson has been exactly what the team thought they were getting so far in training camp and is moving like he's 28 years old, not 33. He's running polished routes and developing his timing with quarterback Derek Carr. Nelson was a fantasy disaster last year, but keep in mind Aaron […]

Texans Confident Jadeveon Clowney Will Be Ready

The Houston Texans are confident that linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (knee) will be ready when the season starts, but they are easing him into training camp after he had offseason arthroscopic knee surgery.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie safety Derwin James (hamstring), the 17th overall pick, was activated off the Non-Football Injury list and will practice on Thursday.

Tennessee Titans safety Johnathan Cyprien (knee) will miss the rest of the season after tearing the ACL in his knee this week in practice. Cyprien only played in 10 games last year with the Titans and had 57 tackles and one sack. Kendrick Lewis figures to jump in as the starting strong safety now.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid isn't worried about quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who has thrown eight interceptions in seven training camp practices. “I told you at the beginning of camp I don’t care about all that stuff,’’ Reid said. “I want him to test the offense . . . If you don’t have the […]

Panthers Looking To Get Christian McCaffrey The Ball Often

Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator Norv Turner thinks it's realistic for running back Christian McCaffrey to get 25 to 30 touches per game, which would be more than double what he had as a rookie. It doesn't seem remotely possible, especially since C.J. Anderson should lead on early downs. Still, McCaffrey bulked up in the offseason […]

Frank Ragnow Expected To Start At Left Guard

Detroit Lions rookie offensive lineman Frank Ragnow, a first-round pick, has primarily played left guard with the first-team offensive line in training camp, and he has impressed head coach Matt Patricia. “I think with Frank, it’s been a couple days in pads and really through the spring he’s been pretty consistent in everything that he […]

Aaron Donald's Holdout Likely To Continue

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald's holdout is likely to continue well into training camp and the preseason. “I don’t think they’re unrealistic,” chief operating officer Kevin Demoff said of Donald’s representatives. “I think they see their client at a certain point that they value at, we see it at a different point. To […]

Jordan Thomas Turning Heads At Camp

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jordan Thomas, who towers at 6-foot-5, 280 pounds, has looked good so far in training camp.

Bengals Releasing Brandon LaFell

The Cincinnati Bengals are releasing wide receiver Brandon LaFell on Thursday. LaFell was a disappointment in his second season with the Bengals in 2017, catching 52 passes for 548 yards and three touchdowns. The former third-round pick could easily latch on with another team, but we won't know what kind of fantasy potential he'll have […]

Patriots Expected To Sign Eric Decker

The New England Patriots are expected to sign free-agent wide receiver Eric Decker to a one-year deal, according to sources.

AJ McCarron Seeing First-Team Reps Thursday

Buffalo Bills quarterback AJ McCarron is taking first-team repetitions in practice on Thursday, which is the first time one of the team's quarterbacks has taken first-team reps two days in a row.

Pierre Garcon Off To Slow Start

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Pierre Garcon has gotten off to a slow start in training camp, and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has acknowledged that the two are still building chemistry after they didn't get to work together in 2017.

The New York Giants opened contract extension talks with wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. earlier this week, according to a source.

Patrick Mahomes Frequently Throwing Interceptions

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw three interceptions in training camp practice on Wednesday and has seven picks in six practices so far.
