Ekwonu ruptured his patellar tendon in the playoffs against the Rams, prompting the Panthers to sign Rasheed Walker to a one-year contract. Playing on his fifth-year option, Ekwonu will probably be an interesting free agent after the season. He’s graded out as a good run blocker in 2023 and 2024 per PFF’s rankings and could benefit from a switch to right tackle. With Taylor Moton and Walker in the fold, there’s no guarantee Ekwonu will start a game this year even when he is ready to play.09 June 2026
Shedeur Sanders took the initial reps with the first team, giving him a hair-width advantage, but Deshaun Watson will get to work with the ones tomorrow and both players will split reps on Thursday. Even when this job is initially won, it sure doesn’t seem like the winner will have much of a leash, making both players risky fantasy football picks both now and in best ball.09 June 2026
Odeyingbo tore his Achilles in early November, but it appears the recovery has gone well if he’s already getting full-team reps ahead of training camp. T.J. Edwards (shoulder) joined him in participating. With the Bears not adding much to their pass rush this offseason, they’ll be counting on a healthy Odeyingbo come September.09 June 2026
Gordon has missed the majority of the offseason program with what has been deemed a soft-tissue injury. Not great! Gordon spent a lot of last year banged up with a hamstring issue that sent him to injured reserve. This is an inauspicious start for his fifth season in the NFL.

Only the Cardinals could find a way to turn offseason team activities in a year in which they are projected to be one of the worst teams in the NFL into a dramatic exercise. Brissett looks to be pushing all his available leverage on a potential contract extension, though the fact that there’s really been no report that the Cardinals are looking to do something with him seems to be very telling. As for Sweat, his name has been bandied about in trade rumors but, again, the Cardinals don’t appe ...09 June 2026
It frees up $10 million in cap space for the coming season, which NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport made sure to note was in part to pay for the Dexter Lawrence trade. It could have been a much deeper restructure had the Bengals wished, with Burrow on a $48 million cap number with $25.25 million in base salary due. Still, it’s something. More than we’ve seen from the Bengals in a while.09 June 2026
It has always seemed likely that Skattebo will be ready for training camp, plus or minus an off-day here or there to help with recovery, but this pretty much guarantees it. Skattebo escaped the offseason as a big fantasy football winner since the Giants didn’t add a real competitor for the starting job. It remains to be seen if he can hold off Tyrone Tracy for a full-time role, but he should at least start the year as the lead of a committee.09 June 2026
In other words, they’re “going to play a lot” per Jackson. It’s generally a good sign when rookies are already working with the 1s ahead of camp, even if they haven’t literally won the No. 1 role yet. Both players carry some breakout potential, though it’s hard to recommend either as more than a bench redraft league prayer in shallow leagues to open the season given Cleveland’s quarterback situation.09 June 2026
Unless Bond can make a real move on Jerry Jeudy, we imagine he’ll probably split reps with Denzel Boston and KC Concepcion early in the season, leaving him as more of a deep-league stash. Still, after he went undrafted last year due to a sexual assault accusation, it appears the Browns think pretty highly of him and he’ll likely finish training camp as someone with an easy roster spot.09 June 2026
He cautions that there’s still a possibility the Ravens address the position late in free agency, as Stefon Diggs, Keenan Allen, Deebo Samuel, and DeAndre Hopkins remain available. Still, he has the experience edge over the two rookie receivers and barring an injury stash situation it’s hard to understand the Ravens not keeping two players they just drafted. Considering Lamar Jackson’s history and the potential upside in Declan Doyle’s offense, Walker is an interesting buy in fantasy at ...09 June 2026
The “if needed” is a bit of a buzzkill, but it should surprise nobody if Montgomery is a heavy-touch player in Houston’s offense this season after coming over in an offseason trade. Woody Marks is not guaranteed to have a major role if Montgomery can handle third downs as well. Montgomery mostly ceded these roles to Jahmyr Gibbs with the Lions; it is no insult to Marks to note that he is not Gibbs.09 June 2026
Graham’s boot, on his right foot, obviously prevented him from practicing. There’s still plenty of time ahead of training camp, so there’s not a real reason for concern for his season yet barring more dire details emerging. Still, it’s not great news for a player that dealt with knee and rib issues last year.09 June 2026
He won’t participate in OTAs, and Jacas has yet to sign his rookie contract. We’ll get additional details as they emerge. There’s probably nothing immediately pressing about this news, but given how important it is for rookies to state their cases for playing time early, Jacas is probably at a disadvantage for getting early snaps in New England’s edge rusher room.09 June 2026
Hennessy will be placed on PUP at the start of training camp. The veteran backup likely faces tough odds to make the roster at the start of the season.09 June 2026
O’Neill, who turns 31 in September, has missed six games over the last three seasons and made a Pro Bowl in 2024. He carried a career-best 84.5 PFF run block grade in 2025 and figures to be a worthwhile starter for the short-term, so it would be surprising if the Vikings didn’t address his contract in some way this offseason.09 June 2026
“Nobody said that,” Schefter then said, noting that everyone involved is downplaying this. Donald almost undoubtedly wouldn’t go through a training camp, and the Rams have yet to present him with a plan on how he’d be used. Schefter stresses that this is just a “guess” but that the “ingredients are there to make it happen.” Donald Watch will become a big part of the training camp news cycle unless someone involved throws cold water on it.09 June 2026
Ensuring the listening audience knew he was not a doctor, Coen said during a Tuesday radio interview that he’s unsure as to when Hunter, recovering from a 2025 knee injury, will be able to join live reps at Jaguars offseason practices. Noting Hunter’s bulked-up upper body, Coen said Hunter would continue to grind tape and learn offensive and defensive schemes on screen while recovering. Coen described Hunter’s injury as a “minor setback for a major comeback.” Jaguars beat writers have ...09 June 2026
The charge against Jackson, 27, who has been with the Rams since entering the NFL in 2021, was for “a person who willfully inflicts corporal injury,” according to the LAPD. Jackson, who has played in 45 regular season games for the Rams over the past three seasons, has a history of off-the-field issues, including a 2024 suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. Jackson last November was sued “by a woman who alleged he recorded her without her consent during sex, repeate ...09 June 2026
“I think he’s looked as good as he’s looked since I met him,” Hafley told reporters Tuesday morning. This comes one week after Dolphins offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik said learning the team’s offense and getting comfortable with the team’s pass catchers has been an “ongoing process” for Willis, who last season led the NFL in EPA per drop back on a small sample size (58 plays) in Green Bay. He was 22 percent over his expected pass rate with the Packers in 2025, leading all qua ...09 June 2026
Bitonio played in 178 regular season games for Cleveland over his 12 seasons, rarely missing games and making seven consecutive Pro Bowl games starting in 2017. He played at a high level even in his final years as a standout in an otherwise awful Browns offensive line. Last year Pro Football Focus graded Bitonio as the league’s eighth best pass-blocking guard, as he allowed just two sacks and one QB hit over 17 regular season games. The Browns will struggle to fill the void left by Bitonio in ...
