Flowers apparently avoided significant injury but will reportedly miss a “couple days” with a quadricep contusion suffered in practice Saturday. Camp injuries are beginning to flood in but it appears as if Flowers will be okay following a couple of days off. Entering his fourth season, there is real optimism that Flowers will take another step forward under a new coaching staff, although a career 15.7 percent red zone target rate could keep him from becoming a true fantasy star. For now, tr ...08 August 2026
Cousins and Crosby got into it Friday with the 37-year-old quarterback taking exception after multiple hits from Crosby. Cousins got in Crosby’s face and grabbed his jersey as the two exchanged words before it was broken up. Both will sit out practice Saturday, but should be back on the field soon.08 August 2026
Johnson was back at practice after being excused earlier in the week as he handled some personal business. Entering his 14th season in the NFL, Johnson told reporters this will probably be his final season. He cited his family as the primary motivation for potentially hanging up his cleats for the last time after this season. Johnson appeared in only 10 games last year, but was named either a first-team or second-team All-Pro in the four seasons prior to 2025.

Giddens appeared to have the inside track on the No. 2 RB job behind Jonathan Taylor at the end of July. With Taylor out looking for a new contract, Giddens took the majority of first-team reps during minicamp. Now Giddens is out dealing with a hamstring injury and seventh-round rookie Seth McGowan is getting the reps behind Taylor. It could be an uphill battle for Giddens, who the Colts selected in the fifth-round in 2025, once he returns from injury.08 August 2026

Smith continues to miss practice with a hamstring injury. While the injury isn’t considered to be serious, the Eagles still aren’t going to push Smith in practice just yet. He figures to be the top target in the Eagles new offense under new OC Sean Mannion in the wake of the Eagles trading A.J. Brown this offseason.08 August 2026

No surprise here as the Tush Push has been an extremely effective play for the Eagles over the years. Mannion, Philadelphia’s third OC in the last three years, is sure to change things with the offense. When it comes to the Tush Push, however, that’s one area that doesn’t need to be fixed. QB Jalen Hurts should continue to be the main beneficiary of the short touchdowns the Tush Push provides.08 August 2026
The soreness info comes from a team spokesperson, who evidently opted not to share helpful details. Price has been practicing hard, at times taking reps with the first-, second- and third-team offenses, so a little soreness is unsurprising. We might end up learning that he is dealing with a minor injury at some point, though. The team could simply be playing coy. Until then, don’t panic. Price’s first-team usage is encouraging for his rookie season outlook and we still have a month to go be ...08 August 2026
Bateman, 26, has never quite lived up to his first-round draft capital, lining up on the perimeter on 88.4 percent of his career receiving snaps. Allowing him to line up in the slot and as the Z-receiver could help him out, although true sixth-year breakouts are uncommon in the NFL. He can only be viewed as a late-round, boom-bust option.08 August 2026
According to Kendall, “everyone in Atlanta can see” Branch’s ascension. The diminutive rookie has been “a standout in Atlanta from the moment he stepped on the practice field.” Zaccheaus is still taking most of the first-team snaps, so Branch may have to continue fighting for the starting role in-season. That said, the coaching staff plans to line up Branch at all three wide receiver spots. Obvious questions remain regarding Branch’s ability to play in the NFL at 5'10/180, but the y ...08 August 2026
Per ESPN’s Turron Davenport, Ayomanor was in the huddle early at today’s practice, which is a good sign. The second-year wide receiver left practice early yesterday after seemingly injuring his left shoulder. He appears to be good to go and will now resume competing for a starting role.08 August 2026
Hafley does not yet know if Bell will be able to play in the preseason, but thinks it would be “a huge benefit” if so. Bell is reportedly making “significant” progress in his rehab from a late-season ACL tear and is now running, cutting, accelerating and decelerating. The Dolphins still don’t consider Bell “day-to-day,” but it seems as though they expect him to play in “real games” this year. Keep an eye on him. The rookie wide receiver could be worth adding off waivers in-sea ...08 August 2026
ESPN’s Rob Demovsky notes this is Kraft’s first absence since he returned from the physically unable to perform list. The Packers are having their annual Family Night this evening, and Demovsky believes the team is simply giving Kraft the night off. There is no cause for concern at this time.07 August 2026
The Steelers also brought aboard TE Lance Mason. They correspondingly released TE JJ Galbreath and WR AT Perry. Dowell and Mason will likley have to compete for roster spots this month.07 August 2026
Stowers is reportedly still working with the third-team offense. The rookie tight end has been a late-round target for best ball drafters hoping to secure late-season production from their TE3. While that outcome is still possible, it would be nice to see Stowers gain a little ground this month.07 August 2026
Nelson did not play on defense at all last season. He replaces DT Keeshawn Silver, whom the Saints waived today.
