Wolfe continues to beat the drum for Sanders, despite recent reports indicating QB Deshaun Watson was pulling ahead in the competition. Wolfe also believes that Sanders’ play is forcing head coach Todd Monken to postpone making a decision to name a starting quarterback. The battle may continue into training camp. Sanders has reportedly improved his downfield passing and processing, and has an “aura” about him that some in the building find compelling. Wolfe closes the segment by wondering ...05 June 2026
Kupp operated as the Seahawks’ WR2 last season, though The Athletic’s Mike Dugar reported in March that WR Rashid Shaheed’s new deal “suggests a demotion” could be on the way for Kupp. Regardless, Kupp loves “playing this game too much” to slow down now. If Kupp can retain his WR2 role on the Seahawks, he will likely only be a matchup-based FLEX option.05 June 2026
Brown has talked openly about the maintenance his knees have required since he entered the league in 2019. Despite receiving treatment regularly, Brown has been a 1,000-yard receiver in six of his seven NFL seasons. We expect him to continue playing at a high level, but he could fall into the WR1/2 range this summer. Regardless, he is the Patriots’ clear-cut WR1.05 June 2026
Barner was listed with calf, elbow and hip injuries last season. We don’t know which ailments required surgery. Barner said he is “definitely feeling better,” but he still has a few hurdles to clear before he can back out there. Barner finished as the PPR TE14 last season, operating as a big-bodied target for QB Sam Darnold and as the Seahawks’ tush push specialist in short-yardage situations.

The Cowboys’ mandatory minicamp is scheduled for June 16-18. Pickens is not present for the Cowboys’ voluntary organized team activities, but head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Pickens is “in a good spot and handling his business” after speaking with the wide receiver yesterday. Pickens signed his franchise tag late in April and is set to make $27.3 million this season. Trade speculation has not amounted to anything thus far, and it sounds like Pickens will show up when he is supposed ...04 June 2026
Boerkircher sat out on Monday, but we do not yet know why. Koziol looks “smooth in space” and took the advantage of his opportunities. His stand out showings as a pass-catcher have “helped him make some real progress at the start of OTAs.” Kozial was a bit of a dynasty darling in this season’s rookie draft cycle. We do not expect him to be relevant in re-draft this season, but these reports are encouraging for his long-term outlook.04 June 2026
Good for him. Do we expect Williams to contribute meaningfully in re-draft formats this year? No. But, the No. 203 overall pick in this year’s draft seemingly has strong odds of securing a spot on the final roster. Williams is a name to know for dynasty, and currently profiles as the Jaguars’ WR5 for 2026.04 June 2026
Rodriguez has now been out for more than a week. When asked for comment previously, coach Liam Coen simply said, “the injury report will come out at some point here.” The team is headed for a short break before mandatory minicamp begins next week, which run from June 9-11. Since OTAs are voluntary, allowing Rodriguez to rehab makes sense. Hopefully, he returns next week. Until then, RB Bhayshul Tuten gets to operate as the clear-cut top back.04 June 2026
Slowik is a big fan of his QB2. He told us so in February, and apparently Ewers’ play continues to draw Slowik’s favor. Slowik complimented Ewers’ newfound conviction, adding that when he just “reacts” to how the play is unfolding in front of him, “he does some really cool stuff.” That said, we fully expect QB Malik Willis to be the Dolphins’ starter in Week 1. Consider Ewers a worthwhile stash in dynasty formats, just in case.04 June 2026
Arnold had a rough time in 2025. He injured his shoulder in Week 5 and sat out in Weeks 6-8. He returned for Weeks 9-10, but then suffered a concussion. He cleared the NFL’s concussion protocol in Week 13, but managed to aggravate his shoulder injury in-game and was shut down for the rest of the year. He participated in walkthroughs for 30 minutes today, marking his first official practice participation this offseason. His reps are still being managed but this is a good first step.04 June 2026
This is great news. LaPorta was active for “about 30 minutes of walkthroughs to begin practice.” LaPorta is not yet ready to participate in positional drills and team drills, but this is still an important first step. Earlier today, Lions head coach Dan Campbell told reporters that the team is going to ask a lot of LaPorta this season. Hopefully, LaPorta is ready to go by the time training camp rolls around in July.04 June 2026
Mesidor’s $20.456 million contract is fully guaranteed. Mesidor, 25, racked up 17.5 TFLs, 12.5 sacks and four forced fumbles last season. He can contribute both as a pass rusher and as a run defender. Mesidor should compete for a starting role right away, opposite EDGE Khalil Mack, in a pass-rush unit that totaled 49 sacks in the 2025 regular season.04 June 2026
Sewell logged more than 500 offensive snaps at left tackle and right tackle in his 2021 rookie season, earning a spot on the PFWA All-Rookie Team along the way. The Lions then put him at the right tackle spot in 2022 and he has remained there over the past four years, earning four Pro Bowl nods and three first-team All-Pro spots. His quick transition to the left side is not surprising.04 June 2026
Mosher notes that Bigsby’s one-cut running style is a great fit for new OC Sean Mannion’s scheme, saying “there’s no question he excels at planting one foot in the ground to getting downhill quickly.” He believes Mannion would be “smart” to get Bigsby involved in short-yardage situations to give starting RB Saquon Barkley’s body some rest. We see the logic here, although adding another short-yardage ball carrier to the rotation could muddy up fantasy projections a tad. Regardless ...04 June 2026
Karty produced a 67 percent field goal conversion rate and an 88 percent extra point conversion rate with the Cardinals last year. He was slated to compete with K Chad Ryland this offseason. It appears as though Ryland is the victor.04 June 2026
Oliver suffered a torn ACL in December, so his status is somewhat uncertain here. Oliver, 29, totaled 55 tackles and three pass breakups on defense last season. He recorded four tackles on special teams.04 June 2026
Back in January, Bland said he expected to be ready for organized team activities. Unfortunately, that has not been the case. That said, Archer thought Bland was “moving very well laterally,” and expect the Cowboys to “be patient with how they bring him along.” Bland was injured in Week 15 last year. He tallied five pass breakups, one interception, 54 tackles and two quarterback pressures.04 June 2026
Per Harris, Revel looks “more fluid in his movement” and “has gained a lot of confidence this offseason now that he’s returning to 100-percent.” The Cowboys drafted Revel in the third round last year, while he was recovering from a torn ACL. Unfortunately, Revel suffered a setback in July and was placed on the non-football injury list to begin the year. He was activated in November and played in Weeks 11-17, breaking up two passes and recording 26 tackles. Revel will likely compete for ...04 June 2026
ESPN’s Adam Schefter did not include Johnson’s contract details while breaking the news. Johnson should start right away. The Dolphins fielded a fairly beatable secondary last season. New, defensive-minded head coach Jeff Hafley made Johnson his very first draft pick, which likely gives Johnson the inside track to a role on the perimeter.04 June 2026
Although these are non-contract drills, this is still great to see. As of late May, Dell was still working off to the side of practice with trainers. The Texans will go on a short break after today, before returning for mandatory minicamp, which is scheduled for June 9-11. Hopefully, Dell either maintains or increases his participation next week.
