Packers Waive Kicker Lucas Havrisik
The Green Bay Packers waived kicker Lucas Havrisik on Tuesday, a source told Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. In a corresponding move, the Packers added kicker Lenny Krieg to their 90-man roster. It was believed that the 26-year-old Havrisik might keep the placekicker seat warm until rookie sixth-rounder Trey Smack was ready to take over. Kreig will now compete with Smack in training camp and the preseason. Havrisik made all four of his field-goal attempts and seven of his nine extra-point tries in just three regular-season games with the Packers last year in his second NFL season. In his rookie season with the Los Angeles Rams, he went 15-for-20 on field goals (2-for-3 from 50-plus yards) and 19-for-22 on extra points in nine games played. Fantasy managers will want to avoid Green Bay's kicking situation to begin the 2026 season.

Maxx Crosby "Ready to Go" for the Start of Training Camp
Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak said star edge rusher Maxx Crosby (knee) is "ready to go" and will get all the first-team reps when the team's training camp begins on Wednesday, per Ryan McFadden of ESPN. Crosby underwent knee surgery in January, and concerns around the recovery timeline for the surgery caused a proposed trade of Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens to fall through. However, it appears as though the 28-year-old is on track for full participation in training camp and remains a part of the Raiders' plans, at least for the time being. Across 15 games in 2025, Crosby recorded 28 TFLs, 10 sacks, and two forced fumbles. As long as he's on the field, he remains one of the most disruptive defenders in the NFL and profiles as a high-end option for fantasy managers in IDP leagues.

Jake Bobo Dealing With Leg Injury in Camp
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jake Bobo (leg) suffered a leg injury in training camp practice on Monday and was a spectator on Tuesday, according to Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune. It's unclear how serious the 27-year-old's injury is, but with it being early in camp, the Seahawks are likely being extra cautious with the fourth-year pass-catcher. Bobo caught just two passes for 20 yards in 11 regular-season games (zero starts) in 2025 after combining for 32 receptions, 303 yards, and three touchdowns in 34 games (three starts) in his first two years in the NFL. The former undrafted free agent from UCLA will be competing with second-year wideout Tory Horton and rookie Emmanuel Henderson for the WR4 role in Seattle during camp and the preseason, behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and veteran Cooper Kupp. Most likely, Bobo will make more of an impact on special teams again in 2026 if he remains on the team's 53-man active roster. Bobo can be ignored in the vast majority of fantasy football leagues.

Caleb Douglas Cleared for Training Camp
Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley confirmed that rookie wide receiver Caleb Douglas (undisclosed) has been cleared for the start of training camp, per Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN. Douglas suffered a minor injury during the team's mandatory minicamp, but it appears he is over the ailment and ready to go. A third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Douglas recorded 54 catches for 846 yards and seven touchdowns across 14 games in his final collegiate season at Texas Tech. The 22-year-old could have a chance to be an immediate contributor in a Miami wide receiver room that is currently led by the uninspiring veteran trio of Jalen Tolbert, Tutu Atwell, and Malik Washington. If Douglas puts together a productive training camp and preseason, his fantasy value will likely soar over the course of the summer.

Tim Patrick Comes Off PUP List on Tuesday
New York Jets veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick (undisclosed) was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Tuesday, a source told Connor Hughes of SNY. It's unclear why the Jets placed Patrick on the PUP list to begin with last weekend, but the 32-year-old is ready to rejoin his teammates at training camp this week. The former undrafted free agent out of Utah will be WR depth in 2026 in his first year with Gang Green behind Garrett Wilson, Adonai Mitchell, and rookie Omar Cooper Jr. Patrick has six years of NFL experience, but at this point in his career after suffering a torn ACL and a torn Achilles tendon in back-to-back seasons in 2022 and 2023, he's not much more than an experienced possession wideout. He caught a career-low 15 passes on 24 targets for 187 yards and three touchdowns in 16 regular-season games (three starts) last year in a crowded Jacksonville Jaguars WR room. Patrick could have a clearer path to a role in 2026 with the Jets, but it's still not enough to make him relevant in standard-sized fantasy leagues.

Denzel Ward, Browns Agree to New Two-Year Extension
Cleveland Browns Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward and the team agreed to a two-year, $62.2 million contract extension on Tuesday that makes him the highest-paid defensive back in NFL history for the second time in his career, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. The deal includes $52.3 million guaranteed. The 29-year-old former fourth overall pick in 2018 out of Ohio State has made the Pro Bowl five times in his eight NFL seasons, including in each of the last three years. He had 39 tackles (29 solo), one interception, and nine pass breakups in 15 starts for the Browns last year, and he has 18 total interceptions in 110 games played (107 starts). Ward was limited during mandatory minicamp last month with a neck injury, but he looks to be fully healthy now and ready to roll for the start of his ninth year in the league in early September.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Works Out With Dolphins
Former Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire worked out with the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday, according to NFL.com. Edwards-Helaire was selected with the final pick of the first round by the Chiefs in 2020 from LSU, and he impressed with 803 rushing yards and four touchdowns in 13 starts as a rookie. However, the 27-year-old has never been able to recapture that form. After a short two-game stint with the New Orleans Saints in 2024, CEH returned to KC last season, only to carry the ball seven times for 13 yards and catch two passes for nine yards. He has not seen 100 carries in a season since his second year in the league with the Chiefs, and if he were to sign in Miami, he'd merely be fighting for a spot on the active 53-man roster behind starter De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright, and Ollie Gordon II. Edwards-Helaire is completely off the fantasy radar for the 2026 season, even in deep dynasty/keeper leagues.

Colts Still Mulling Options at Wide Receiver
The Indianapolis Colts are still mulling their options at the wide receiver position after players reported to training camp on Tuesday, according to Stephen Holder of ESPN. The Colts have yet to replace Michael Pittman Jr., who was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the offseason, and new WR1 Alec Pierce (ankle) is on the Physically Unable to Perform list to start camp after having offseason ankle surgery. General manager Chris Ballard will continue to evaluate the current WR group before making a decision on whether to add a veteran such as Deebo Samuel Sr., Keenan Allen, or Stefon Diggs. "At some point we'll evaluate it as we go along," Ballard said. "We'll probably talk through some of those [available] guys." Until Pierce can return, Josh Downs will operate as Indy's WR1, with Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Ashton Dulin, Anthony Gould, and rookie Deion Burks, among others, getting more opportunities to stand out in camp.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Being Treated as Primary WR1 in Arizona's Offense
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has been the team's main receiver on the field in 13-personnel packages in his return to training camp practice on Tuesday, not Michael Wilson, according to Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. Harrison didn't finish Sunday's practice due to cramps and was held out on Monday, but the 23-year-old is back on Tuesday and is fine. There has been some noise this offseason that the former fourth overall pick could face competition for the WR1 role in 2026 from Wilson after his breakout 2025 campaign. This report will quiet some of that noise, but Harrison is going to need to stay healthy and perform to earn the trust of new head coach Mike LaFleur as he heads into his third year in the NFL. Harrison has been a first-round bust so far after his first two seasons, catching 103 of 189 targets for 1,493 yards and 12 touchdowns. He had a 41-608-4 line in just 12 games in 2025, creating buy-low opportunities in both redraft and dynasty/keeper formats. Despite disappointing in his first two seasons, Harrison is worth the lowered cost as a WR3/flex with plenty of bounce-back potential.

Jaylin Noel Dealing With Short-Term Injury
Houston Texans second-year wide receiver Jaylin Noel (undisclosed) was placed on the Non-Football Injury list on Tuesday, but Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports reports that it's considered a short-term injury, according to a league source. The Texans aren't concerned heading into training camp. In related news, fellow wideout Tank Dell (knee), who didn't play at all in 2025 due to a serious knee injury suffered in 2024, avoided the Physically Unable to Perform list and has been cleared for training camp. The 23-year-old Noel, who was a third-rounder last year out of Iowa State, will most likely be competing with Dell this summer for the team's WR3 role to begin the year behind Nico Collins and Jayden Higgins. In his first NFL season, Noel caught just 26 passes on 35 targets for 292 yards and two touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (three starts) and took the clear back seat to Higgins. Noel will most likely go undrafted in most 12-team fantasy leagues this fall unless an injury on the WR depth chart above him opens up a clear path to consistent targets in the Texans' passing attack. RotoBaller has Noel ranked as the WR79 right now, four spots below Dell.

Tank Dell Cleared to Take Part in Training Camp
Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) avoided the Physically Unable to Perform list and has been cleared to participate in training camp, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. It's a notable development for Dell, who tore his ACL, LCL, and MCL and dislocated his knee and sustained meniscus damage in 2024, which required multiple surgeries and caused him to miss the entire 2025 campaign. The 26-year-old could still very well be limited in camp practices early on, but it confirms what the Texans have been saying in the offseason: that Dell will help them in 2026. The former third-round pick in 2023 will be a wild card for Houston's offense this year, and it remains to be seen if he can recapture his pre-injury form as a dangerous deep threat. In his first two seasons (25 games played), Dell caught 98 of his 156 yards for 1,376 yards and 10 touchdowns. Dell is currently ranked as RotoBaller's No. 75 fantasy WR for 2026, but his stock could rise if he looks good in camp and the preseason. If/when he's back to full health for the regular season, Dell will be battling for a role alongside WR1 Nico Collins and second-year wideouts Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel (undisclosed). At best, Dell will probably be the Texans' WR3.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Returns to Practice on Tuesday After Dealing With Cramps
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. experienced cramping on Monday, but he was scheduled to return to training camp practice on Tuesday, according to head coach Mike LaFleur. Harrison initially dealt with cramping on Sunday and didn't finish out that practice. The Cardinals gave him the day off on Monday as a precaution, but he seems to be good to go now. The 23-year-old former fourth overall pick from Ohio State in 2024 hasn't lived up to his high expectations through his first two NFL seasons, catching 103 total passes for 1,493 yards and 12 touchdowns in 29 games (26 starts). Harrison only suited up for 12 games last year and finished with a 41-608-4 line on 73 targets. There have been reports suggesting that last year's breakout star, Michael Wilson, could challenge Harrison as Arizona's true WR1 in 2026. It's the perfect time to try to buy low on Harrison in dynasty/keeper leagues, and he'll be a low-cost WR3/flex option with bounce-back potential in redraft leagues. Between injury concerns and a new offense in the desert this year, fantasy managers will have their reasons to avoid Harrison.

Aaron Rodgers Reiterates That 2026 is his Final Season
Pittsburgh Steelers veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers affirmed on Tuesday that there's "zero debate" that 2026 will be his last season playing football, according to Brooke Pryor of ESPN. "I thought last year might be it," Rodgers said. "And then Mike [McCarthy] got hired, and I talked to the wife, and she said, 'You can do one more year.' I said, 'Well, we'll see if it works out.' And then it kind of all came together." McCarthy coached Rodgers for 13 seasons with the Green Bay Packers, beginning in Rodgers' second NFL season in 2005. The 42-year-old four-time MVP and future Hall of Famer will have a new receiver in Michael Pittman Jr. to work with in 2026, but he won't have running back Kenny Gainwell, who was a key dump-off asset for Rodgers out of the backfield a year ago. Rodgers led the Steelers to the postseason last year and completed 65.7% of his passes for 3,322 yards, 24 touchdowns, and seven interceptions to finish as the fantasy QB19. His situation with old coach McCarthy should be more helpful for fantasy purposes, but Rodgers' fantasy ceiling remains very limited because of his lack of mobility and his decline in downfield aggressiveness. Treat him as a low-end QB2 in two-QB superflex leagues.

Chris Olave a Full-Go With No Restrictions for Training Camp
New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said that wide receiver Chris Olave (illness) is now a full-go and won't face any restrictions in training camp, according to Katherine Terrell of ESPN. Olave said earlier this summer that he was expected to get off blood-thinners before the start of camp. He has been limited all offseason due to the blood clot that he dealt with in January. The 26-year-old is read to participate in practice this summer despite still not having a long-term contract extension. It's all good news for the former 11th overall pick's 2026 outlook despite ending last year on the sidelines due to his blood-clot issue. Olave set career highs in 2025 in receptions (100), targets (156), receiving yards (1,163), and touchdowns (nine) in 16 starts in head coach Kellen Moore's up-tempo offense. The move to rookie QB Tyler Shough actually helped his cause, too, and should give him momentum going into his fifth NFL season. There will be added competition for targets after the Saints drafted wideout Jordyn Tyson in the first round, but Olave should still have a safe floor as a low-end WR1/high-end WR2 for fantasy managers as long as he can stay healthy.

Rhamondre Stevenson Leaves Tuesday's Practice Early
New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (undisclosed) left the practice field as players prepared for final sprints on Tuesday at training camp, according to Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald. Stevenson was a full participant in practice, but he left for undisclosed reasons and didn't speak with the media afterward. It's unclear why Stevenson left practice early, but we will be keeping a close eye on the situation. If it is an injury, the good news is that it's early in training camp, so Stevenson could still be ready for the start of the 2026 regular season if it's not a serious injury. If this is something that sidelines Stevenson for an extended period of time, it will cause second-year back TreVeyon Henderson's ADP this summer to rise dramatically, with Lan Larison also seeing more opportunities in New England's backfield as the backup. Most likely, the Patriots are being extra cautious with whatever Stevenson is dealing with early in camp.
