Will Levis Competing for Backup Quarterback Job in Tennessee
Tennessee Titans head coach Robert Saleh said that quarterback Will Levis will get "every opportunity" to compete with veteran signal-caller Mitchell Trubisky for the team's QB2 role behind starting quarterback Cam Ward, per Turron Davenport of ESPN. A second-round pick by the Titans in 2023, Levis threw for 3,899 yards, 21 touchdowns, and 16 interceptions across 21 starts over his first two NFL seasons. After the Titans used the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft on Ward, Levis underwent shoulder surgery last July that sidelined him for the entirety of the 2025 campaign. While there has been some speculation that Levis could be on the Titans roster bubble heading into 2026, it appears as though the 27-year-old will at least get an opportunity to compete for a job. Still, Levis should be off the radar of fantasy managers in both redraft and dynasty leagues at this point in his career.

Brevin Jordan Back to Full Health Entering Training Camp
Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan (knee) is fully healthy entering training camp, per Jared Koch of Sports Illustrated. After suffering a season-ending torn ACL in Week 2 of the 2024 season, Jordan missed the entirety of 2025 due to a knee/lower leg injury that he suffered during a preseason practice. The 26-year-old flashed some upside in his last healthy season in 2023, recording 17 catches for 219 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 21 targets across 14 games (six starts). If he's able to stay healthy throughout camp and make the Texans roster, Jordan would be another mouth to feed in Houston's crowded tight end room. Veteran Dalton Schultz currently projects as the team's TE1, but Houston also has tight ends Foster Moreau, Cade Stover, and 2026 second-round pick Marlin Klein on its roster. Jordan should remain off the radar of fantasy managers for now, but he could be a name to monitor if he can put together a strong preseason.

Montez Sweat Placed on Non-Football Illness List
Chicago Bears defensive end Montez Sweat (illness) was placed on the Active/Non-Football Illness list on Tuesday. It does not appear that Sweat is battling a major illness, but he is expected to be away from the team for a few days. Across 17 games in 2025, the 29-year-old recorded 36 solo tackles, 13 TFLs, 10 sacks, and three forced fumbles. He's been highly durable in his NFL career, missing just one game over the past four seasons. Still, Sweat is a key piece of the Bears' defense against both the pass and the run, so it would make sense for the team to be extra cautious with him at this point in the summer. It seems unlikely that Sweat is in danger of missing any time, but fantasy managers should still monitor his status until he is fully cleared for training camp action.

Vikings Sign Offensive Tackle Brian O'Neill to Four-Year Extension
The Minnesota Vikings signed offensive tackle Brian O'Neill to a four-year, $96 million contract extension on Tuesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. O'Neill is now under contract with the Vikings for the next five years. The 30-year-old veteran and two-time Pro Bowler has been a starter for the Vikes at right tackle since entering the league in 2018 as a second-round pick (62nd overall) from the University of Pittsburgh. O'Neill has been one of the team's most reliable offensive linemen and now gets rewarded for it. He will continue to anchor the Vikings' O-line in 2026 as their starting right tackle as they look to bounce back in 2026. O'Neill has started all but four of his 124 games played for Minnesota in the regular season in his eight years in the league.

Drew Allar Competing for the QB3 Role in Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy said that veteran quarterback Mason Rudolph will work with the second-team offense at the start of training camp, while rookie quarterback Drew Allar and 2025 sixth-rounder Will Howard will work with "other groups," per Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. A third-round pick out of Penn State, Allar is not expected to see much of the field in his rookie season as long as veteran Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers can stay healthy. However, it appears that Allar will also be behind Rudolph on the Steelers quarterback depth chart, at least at the start of camp. In redraft leagues, Allar is unlikely to provide fantasy-relevant production in 2026. Still, he remains a worthy dynasty stash through his rookie season, given the Steelers' obvious long-term need at quarterback once Rodgers retires.

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.
