Chad Williams Hopes To Improve On Poor Year 1

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Chad Williams hopes to improve on his poor performance from the previous year after failing to earn the trust of head coach Bruce Arians.

Paul Worrilow Diagnosed With a Torn ACL

Updating a previous report, Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Paul Worrilow (knee) has been diagnosed with a torn ACL. He'll miss the entire 2018 season. Worrilow had just signed a one-year contract to join the Super Bowl champions in April, but a non-contact injury on Tuesday landed him in an air cast and had him carted off […]

Mychal Kendricks Released by the Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles released linebacker Mychal Kendricks on Tuesday. Kendricks was a starting linebacker for the Super Bowl champions last season, but the cut will save the team $6 million against the salary cap if it is designated a post-June 1 release. Kendricks had one of his best NFL seasons last year, so he won't […]

Jadeveon Clowney Not Taking Part In OTAs

Houston Texans linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (knee) is sitting out of organized team activities while he rehabs a knee injury after undergoing arthroscopic surgery following last season. His medical outlook is positive after seeking a second opinion from Dr. James Andrews, according to league sources. Clowney isn't worried and says he'll be ready to go, but […]

Julio Jones Expected To Return At Mandatory Minicamp

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones is expected to be back for mandatory minicamp in June, according to head coach Dan Quinn. The 29-year-old Jones is seeking one final extension before his career winds down. It probably doesn't hurt him to sit out organized team activities after dealing with nagging injuries over the last several […]

Paul Worrilow Carted Off the Field on Tuesday

Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Paul Worrilow was placed in an air cast and carted off the field during Tuesday's practice. While the team has yet to release information about the injury, the presence of an air cast and a cart certainly lend themselves to the belief that Worrilow suffered a serious injury. He'd just signed a […]

Christian Hackenberg Ready To Move On?

New York Jets quarterback Christian Hackenberg sounds ready to move on after speaking to the media Tuesday. Hackenberg has been working on his throwing motion this year, but he's currently fourth on the depth chart behind Josh McCown, Teddy Bridgewater and third overall pick Sam Darnold.

He's ahead of schedule and is on track to be close to full health for training camp this summer. Watson […]

Khalil Mack Not Present At OTAs

Oakland Raiders defensive end Khalil Mack is not present at organized team activities on Tuesday as he waits for a contract extension. It's not a surprise, and Mack could even sit out some of mandatory minicamp as he seeks a lucrative deal. The 27-year-old defensive beast will get paid after tallying 10.5 sacks and a […]

Leonard Fournette Looking Slimmer

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette looks slimmer at organized team activities this year. The fourth overall pick last year had a fine rookie season, running 268 times for 1,040 yards (3.9 yards per carry) and nine touchdowns, but he battled through injuries late in the season and wasn't as effective as earlier in the […]

Julian Edelman Limited At OTAs

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee) was limited at organized team activities on Tuesday. He fielded punts but didn't take part in team drills. The Pats are easing Edelman into offseason workouts after he missed all of 2017 with his injury. The 32-year-old veteran has had 90-plus catches for the Patriots in three […]

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (knee) is recovering nicely from a torn ACL last year and will take part in organized team activities on Tuesday and will not be limited, according to sources.

Josh McCown Seeing First-Team Reps At OTAs

New York Jets quarterback Josh McCown is getting the first-team repetitions at organized team activities on Tuesday, followed by Teddy Bridgewater and third overall pick Sam Darnold. This is as expected concerning McCown, and the veteran should enter the 2018 as the starter. Bridgewater looks to be progressing nicely from his knee ailment, but his […]

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. It's unclear if this new ankle injury is related to the one that caused him to undergo surgery last November. Pryor surprisingly put up a […]

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.

The 22-year-old had an incredible 19 touchdown passes and eight interceptions in seven games in […]

Carlos Dunlap Absent From Bengals OTAs

Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Carlos Dunlap is absent from the start of organized team activities. The two-time Pro Bowler is in a contract year after signing a six-year, $40.6 million extension in 2013. Dunlap has yet to reveal why he has not participated during the voluntary period, a decision that has cost him $300,000.

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. Samuel is making good progress after hauling in just 15 passes for 115 yards and no touchdowns in nine games in his rookie season. The second-round pick has an uphill battle for consistent targets […]

Carson Wentz Participating in Individual Drills

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) participated in individual throwing drills during organized team activities on Tuesday. Wentz admitted that he has not been medically cleared to practice but had always planned on participating at OTAs. He reportedly looked strong warming up before throwing and then looked comfortable throwing the ball once he got going. […]

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 […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Champing At The Bit

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) wants to do more in organized team activities, but the team is taking a cautious approach with him after he fractured his left ankle in 2017. “He looks good,” head coach Pat Shurmur said Monday after the Giants’ first organized team activity practice. “He’s out here […]

Myles Garrett Has Added Muscle This Offseason

Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett wants to be on the field more in 2018.

Le'Veon Bell Will Not Attend OTAs

According to a source, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell will not attend organized team activities, which begin on Tuesday. Bell has been angling for a long-term contract from the Steelers for several years and didn't report to Pittsburgh until September in 2017 after sitting out all of training camp last season. The team placed […]

Wendell Smallwood May Not Make the Eagles Roster

Philadelphia Eagles running back Wendell Smallwood faces a "steep uphill battle" to make the Eagles final roster for the 2018 season. Smallwood got some playing time in 2017, but that all disappeared once Jay Ajayi was acquired. With Ajayi, Darren Sproles, and Corey Clement firmly ahead of him on the depth chart, Smallwood looks like […]

Donnel Pumphrey On the Roster Bubble

Philadelphia Eagles running back Donnel Pumphrey is expected to be on the roster bubble heading into the 2018 season. Pumphrey reportedly faces an "uphill battle" to make the final roster. After a disappointing training camp before last season, he was placed on Injured Reserve and missed the entire year. Recent reports state that Pumphrey has […]

Darren Sproles Could Lead the Eagles Backfield in 2018

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles could lead the Eagles backfield in snaps in 2018, according to NJ.com Eagles reporter Eliot Shorr-Parks. Sproles was the starter last season before a season-ending injury, and apparently the presence of Jay Ajayi may not change that this year. While he certainly won't operate as a three-down back, an […]

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. This should not come as a surprise. The soon-to-be 27-year-old will get paid handsomely after tying a career high with 11 sacks in […]

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. Shepard was a bust for the Panthers in 2017 after signing a three-year, $10 million deal after he had just 17 catches for 202 yards and a touchdown. Shepard will […]

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 […]
