Miami Dolphins rookie tight end Mike Gesicki, a second-round pick, is showing promise and has emerged as a go-to red-zone target for quarterback Ryan Tannehill in training camp.

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman (hamstring) was injured in practice on Friday, and head coach Kyle Shanahan said Sherman's hamstring tightened up on him.
