New York Giants wide receiver
Beaux Collins worked with the first team offense on Tuesday following the departure of
Jalin Hyatt (leg), who exited practice with an apparent leg injury. Star wideout
Malik Nabers (toe) is sitting out minicamp with a toe injury. According to Giants reporter Art Stapleton, Collins caught a touchdown from
Russell Wilson in 7-on-7 drills and is making an impact as an undrafted rookie free agent. Collins spent three seasons at Clemson before one year at Notre Dame, totalling 132 receptions for 1,780 yards and 14 touchdowns in 48 collegiate games. New York's wide receiver group behind Nabers leaves a lot to be desired, so there's a real path toward making the 53-man roster for Collins. He should be on the radar in deeper dynasty fantasy football setups.

The Houston Texans are planning to sign free-agent cornerback Damon Arnette, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. The former first-round pick by the Las Vegas Raiders in the 2020 NFL Draft out of Ohio State has not appeared in an NFL game since 2021 and is eyeing an NFL comeback. In just 13 career games with the Silver and Black, he posted 29 tackles and three pass deflections. Arnette spent the Spring with the Houston Roughnecks of the UFL, compiling 18 tackles, one sack, and a pick-six. The 28-year-old will likely find a tough time making the team's 53-man roster, but surprises happen, so this is an interesting story to follow.

Veteran cornerback Jaire Alexander signed a one-year deal worth up to $6 million with the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. By landing with Baltimore, he reunites with his college teammate,
Lamar Jackson (Louisville). Alexander spent the first seven years of his professional career with the Green Bay Packers after being selected with the No. 18 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Over 78 career games, he logged 287 tackles (240 solo), 12 interceptions, 70 pass deflections, three forced fumbles, and 1.5 sacks. The two-time Pro Bowler has missed 20 games over the last two seasons, which is a primary reason the Packers were ready to move on. Alexander joins a strong defensive back room featuring Marlon Humphrey, Kyle Hamilton, Nate Wiggins, and first-round rookie Malachi Starks. If he can stay healthy and provide high-end cornerback play, this could be the league's most talented secondary.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end
Jared Wiley (knee) is participating in individual drills at mandatory minicamp this week while wearing a brace on his surgically-repaired right knee. The fact that Wiley is even taking part in offseason workouts at all is pretty impressive after he suffered a torn ACL last November. The 24-year-old is doing well in his recovery, but he still may not be fully ready for training camp this summer or the start of the 2025 regular season in September. The former fourth-rounder (131st overall) last year will merely be competing for the No. 3 tight end spot with
Robert Tonyan when he's fully healthy as depth behind
Travis Kelce and
Noah Gray. In his first year in the NFL with the Chiefs in 2024, Wiley only appeared in seven regular-season games (two starts) and caught his only target for seven yards. He's nowhere near the fantasy radar.

The New York Jets released kicker
Anders Carlson on Wednesday and signed kicker
Harrison Mevis in a corresponding move, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Mevis made 20 of his 21 field-goal attempts (95.2%) this year while playing for the UFL's Birmingham Stallions. Carlson, 27, is the younger brother of Raiders kicker
Daniel Carlson. The Auburn product hasn't been as good as his older brother in the NFL, though, making 83.3% of his 48 field-goal tries since entering the league in 2023 with the Green Bay Packers. He went 13-for-15 on his field goals and 12-for-15 on extra points in seven games in 2024 with the San Francisco 49ers and the Jets. Carlson will now look for another team to sign with before training camp. Mevis will be competing with
Caden Davis for the starting kicking job this summer.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that there are no concerns with wide receiver
Malik Nabers (toe) not being ready for training camp in late July. Nabers missed organized team activities this spring and is also sitting out of mandatory minicamp with a toe injury that has bothered him since college, but the team isn't very concerned, and Nabers should be fine for training camp, the preseason, and the start of his second NFL campaign this fall. The 21-year-old also dealt with his toe ailment in 2024, but it didn't slow him down on the field, as he had 109 catches for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns on 170 targets despite a rough quarterback situation in the Big Apple.
Russell Wilson may not prove to be much better under center, but he does excel with the deep ball still. Nabers has extremely high expectations going into Year 2 and should be treated as a top-10 fantasy wideout.

The Athletic's Chad Graff offers skepticism as to whether New England Patriots rookie second-round running back
TreVeyon Henderson can be a true bell-cow back in the future, mainly given his injury history. Henderson suffered a broken foot as a sophomore at Ohio State, which required surgery, and then missed more time as a junior with an undisclosed injury. He's also a bit undersized for a RB at 5-foot-10, 202 pounds. But the 22-year-old was a second-rounder because he has blazing speed and big-play ability, which the Patriots have been lacking at the position. Henderson is a true home run threat who can make plays as a receiver and as a runner. His development between the tackles will be something to watch, although most of that work will go to
Rhamondre Stevenson in 2025. Henderson will have more value as a high-end RB3 in PPR leagues in his first year in the NFL.

Las Vegas Raiders safety Jeremy Chinn was known for playing multiple roles on defense with both the Carolina Panthers and Washington Commanders, and that's expected to continue in 2025 in Vegas, according to ESPN's Ryan McFadden. Chinn was among the team's top players at OTAs and minicamp and had a nose for the ball. The 27-year-old defensive back spent time in the slot when the Raiders used three-safety lineups, and he could spend a lot of time in the slot with the Raiders lacking depth at nickel cornerback. Chinn and Isaiah Pola-Mao should make for an intriguing pair of safeties for the Raiders, with Pola-Mao looking to build off a career year in 2024 when he was forced into a starting role. Chinn has now recorded 100-plus combined tackles in three of his five NFL seasons and should be set up for another strong campaign in 2025 in his first year with the Raiders.

Las Vegas Raiders defensive tackle Christian Wilkins (foot) was absent for all three days of mandatory minicamp as he continues to recover from a Jones fracture in his foot that limited him to five games in his first year with the team in 2024. Wilkins was seen at OTAs in May but didn't have a helmet and didn't participate in any drills on the field. The Raiders have been cautiously optimistic about the 29-year-old, but head coach Pete Carroll also said that the rehab process has been "long and challenging." Wilkins' status for training camp this summer remains up in the air, according to ESPN's Ryan McFadden. For now, the team will turn to Adam Butler and Leki Fotu in the trenches on the defensive line, but having Wilkins healthy would be a major boost with both edge rushers Maxx Crosby and Malcolm Koonce returning to full health.

ESPN's Ryan McFadden thinks the Las Vegas Raiders would be wise to add at cornerback this offseason, with their depth questionable and unproven across the board. It's probably why they had former Seattle Seahawks cornerback Shaquill Griffin for a visit last week. The Raiders had rookie Darien Porter and Eric Stokes as their first-team cornerbacks during OTAs and minicamp. Stokes is a former first-rounder, but he's battled injuries throughout his career. Porter is a physical defensive back, but he started in only seven games at Iowa State and wasn't asked to play much man coverage in college. Jakorian Bennett is coming off a torn labrum that limited him to 10 games in 2024. The Raiders could also look to add one of free-agent corners Mike Hilton, Jaire Alexander or Rasul Douglas before training camp starts in late July.

The Los Angeles Chargers have signed undrafted free agent offensive lineman Elijah Ellis to an undisclosed contract. Tackle Tyler McLellan was waived in a corresponding move. Ellis spent four seasons in college, but just one at Marshall, where he culminated his collegiate career (Baylor). He started all 13 games for the Thundering Herd in 2024, helping lead their rushing attack to a top 20 finish in the nation and 32 points per game. The Texas native appeared in just nine games over his other three years with Baylor. He's the fourth new addition on the Chargers' offensive front via free agency and April's draft, and figures to provide depth at tackle if he shows well enough to make the team.

Per the team, the Atlanta Falcons have signed free-agent running back
Jashaun Corbin to an undisclosed contract. Running back
Jase McClellan was released in a corresponding move. The 24-year-old got some run with the New York Giants in 2023 but was waived last offseason and did not find work in the NFL last year. Corbin found his way to the UFL as a part of the San Antonio Brahmas and led the league in rushing in 2025. In addition to 97 carries for 514 yards and four touchdowns on the ground, he chipped in another 18 receptions for 138 yards through the air, finishing with the third-most all-purpose yards in the UFL. Atlanta has no immediate need for a running back, but they may utilize Corbin on special teams, as he also has experience in the return game.

Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports that Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay indicates progress has been made towards a possible extension with running back
Kyren Williams. Klein also noted that there has been no update on the situation with defensive back Jalen Ramsey. Williams has been hopeful of a contract for some time now, as he looks for his pay to match his production. The Notre Dame product has new backfield competition with LA's selection of rookie
Jarquez Hunter (whom they traded up for). However, it's unlikely he'll lose his stranglehold on the backfield's touches, or even that Hunter will surpass second-year teammate
Blake Corum. It's still in the cards that Williams doesn't receive a long-term deal, but he'll be among the best fantasy backs again this season, and well worth an early draft pick.
